What is Virtualization?
Traditionally the OS and its applications
were tightly coupled to the hardware they
were installed on
Virtualization breaks the link between
operating system and physical hardware
This allows the ability to change hardware
without replacing the OS or applications
Additionally multiple instances of an OS
with independent applications can now run
on the same hardware

Long ICS upgrade cycles vs. short IT upgrade cycles
Space, power, cooling and management limitations
Management of operator and Engineering Workstations
Management of multiple incompatible software versions
Higher downtime costs
Virtualization is widely adopted by IT and growing in ManufacturingManufacturing has some unique Considerations and Opportunities
Address with Virtualization Value Propositions
System longevity with HW/SW abstraction
Server consolidation
Centralized server management and deployment
Centralized workstation management and deployment
Improve reliability with management and recovery features

Typical Industrial control system refresh is15 to 20 years
Computer replacements typically require software upgrades which are expensive and difficult
Able to upgrade Hypervisor without modifying the virtual machine
Virtual hardware exposed to the guest OS does not change when physical hardware is replaced
Each virtual hardware version is supported for three major releases of vSphere
Increased Application Longevity

Server Consolidation
• Many physical servers
- Under utilized- Requiring maintenance- Generating heat- Consuming energy
• Fewer physical servers– More efficiently utilized
– Easier to maintenance
– Generating less heat
– Consuming less energy

VMware vSphere Overview
Combines multiple servers and storage units into a
pool of resources that can be divided between
applications
Provides central management for servers and their
applications
Advanced high availability and disaster recovery
features
Intended to provide a highly available, always on back
end for server applications and desktops.
Can segment hardware into multiple priority groups.

Centralized Management (Servers)
• Monitor all host servers and virtual machines• Deploy new VM’s from template• Attached to the console session to manage installed applications• Shutdown / reset problem VM’s• Backup and restore virtual machines with integrated addons

VMware View Overview
Central management for both engineering and
operations clients
Rapid deployment of new desktops and updates
Run virtual machines on production server cluster,
or on engineering laptop
Client can run on a range of devices from desktops
to tablets
End user focuses on using the applications rather
than managing his virtual machine library
Aimed at systems that could benefit from centralized
management

FactoryTalk® Activation Considerations
FactoryTalk® Activation is fully supported in a virtual environment.
Considerations for a virtualized activation server:
Licenses required are based on concurrent running instances
of software – whether virtualized or not.
Use concurrent activations centralized on an activation server
Use dongle based or disk serial number based activations
Virtualization does not change Rockwell Software® licensing
