Longhorn:: Hypervisor - Windows Server Virtualization Demo

I just posted the TechReady keynote demo, which I talked about earlier, on soapbox.

In this demo you will see:

  • Windows Server Virtualization running on Server Core managed from another Windows Server Longhorn box
  • 64-bit hosts and 32-bit hosts and a Linux running on the same server core box
  • An 8-core virtual machine
  • System Center Virtual Machine Manager
  • System Center Operations Manager
  • Monitoring the VMs on the Server Core box 
  • Fire off a PowerShell script to hot-add another NIC to a SQL VHD Image

This demo is just awesome. I loved the PowerShell script where Jeff just added another NIC to a VM.

I can barely wait to get me hands on this kind of technology. Now I am already testing the Longhorn server but once I can get my hand onto the Windows Server Virtualization I will definitely move my VM towards this Technology.

    Sorry but it sounds more like bells and whistles to my hears. If you take time to learn about virtualization technologies in general; 2 cores in VM is not so efficient performance wise, overhead on 8 cores should be really nice to measure. An overloaded network adapter in a VM, cough it seems he had really nothing else to show us. I'll be impress when I see disk controller + partition for e.g.

    Adding a second virtual NIC to a VM still does not change the fact that there is only 1 physical NIC in the host physical server.  You are not increasing throughput at all... If you really want to increase throughput, you would need to add a physical NIC to the Longdonghorn host server which - yes - means the same downtime.  And now, you have that same downtime for ALL VMs running on that host - not just the SQL server that needs it.  Wow...what a treat. A better demo would have been showing the live migration of the VMs to another host so that the original server could be brought down to add the physical NIC with NO downtime for the VMs.  Something that VMware can do today...

    Me Today with Virtual Server we are able to cluster and then failover the guest with downtime. Later with Windows Server Virtualization we will also have the live migration.

    Everyone is familiar with the fictitious element of the planet Krypton. Strangely, this element is poisonous

    When will there be a beta available on MSDN for the hypervisor environment?

    Currently I don't have a date when Virtualization will be available on MSDN. Even we MSFT internals don't have access yet. But for sure when I have a date I will post it onto this blog. Stay tuned. -A

    I think that it's "Awesome" how that after 32 years, Microsoft "still" can't come up with their "own" inovative ideas.

    Fiquei estes últimos dias com um post pronto revisitando segurança com virtualização e todas as possibilidades

    What happens now that Viridian is pushed even further back and that with the most fundamental cross-platform capabilities ripped out of Viridian's tender little body? Know what I think? I think the VCSY (Vertical Computer Systems) lawsuit for patent infringement against fundmental capabilities allegedly in .Net has much more to do with Microsoft software development than anyone in Micrsoft wants to admit. Read up on USPTO 6,826,744 and USPTO 7,076,521 and think through how YOU would do virtualization if you didn't have these. This is the hidden danger of both those patents... doing one without the other is virtually useless.
