PRO Pack Benefits with NPIV Deployments

Using NPIV technology for the deployment scenario outlined in PRO Pack

Benefits delivers advantages above and beyond what is listed in this document.

Data center administrators should consider deploying multiple Hyper-V

workloads using a virtual (NPIV) Fibre Channel adapter port for each workload.

Specific additional benefits with NPIV technology include:

 Granular performance utilization view. The administrator can easily see

which VM workload is consuming the link bandwidth.

 Security/isolation. I/O from virtual ports is restricted/isolated to the LUNs

to which they are masked. In the case of a physical port, each port has

access to all LUNs (must LUN mask to all ports).

 Quality of service (QoS). Using the port‘s NPIV ID as the proxy for each

virtualized workload increases the QoS per VM on the virtual port.

NOTE:

If the VM contains only one application/workload/function, then the

security/isolation benefit also translates to application isolation.
