version history

v1.0 - vMotion

v2.5 - Storage vMotion

v5.0 - Multi-NIC vMotion, Stun During Page Send (SDPS)

v5.1 - vMotion without shared storage

v5.5 - VPLEX Metro support, IPv6 Improvements

v6.0 - (start with change compute and storage) => vMotion across switching boundaries, vMotion across networking (L3) boundaries (subnets) (aka routed vMotion), vMotion across management boundaries, vMotion across geographical boundaries, Replication Assisted vMotion

vSphere 6.0 is a big step towards vMotion Anywhere

gauge performance

migration time (memory, disk, totla)

switch-over time

impact on guest applications

  • application latency and throughput during vMotion
  • time to resume to normal level of performance

Monster VM vMotion Performance

Debugging

grep VMotion /var/log/vmkernel

vMotion Futures

  • Cross-Cloud vMoiton
  • Non Volatile Memory (NVM)
  • Active / Passive Storage Replication
  • Support for RDMA
