Data Center Temperature Challenges
¢ Proliferation of high-density servers
¢ HVAC sensors at the unit, not where servers live
¢ Sensors within servers are limited
° Sensors installed atop cabinets
Connected to pre-existing console network All sensors are polled in an hourly sweep

Trang 27Build Room
¢ Build room provides an area for equipment vendors to rack,
stack, configure, and burn in new systems before they go into
production and try new equipment and configurations
¢ Cabling and network architecture in the Build room is
designed to flexibly support quick equipment changes
¢ Network cabinet in every half row of each of four rows makes
connecting and reconnecting new equipment and moving equipment much easier by not having to pull new cable the length of the room

Trang 28Data Center — Vendor Access
¢ Equipment within the data center is largely supported directly
by vendors under contract with Cisco IT
¢ Vendors perform upgrades, changes, and troubleshooting
and repair if a problem arises with equipment
¢ Modems
Many of the storage frames have modem boxes to allow vendors
to remotely monitor their equipment
If a device experiences a problem, it automatically calls the vendor
Vendor can then dial in through the same modem and diagnose the problem
Analog modems will soon be replaced by a VPN solution over the Cisco® IP network and the Internet

Trang 29Data Center Storage
Now, hundreds of hosts are connected to a group of storage frames through a Storage Area Network (SAN), creating a large, efficient pool of shared storage supported by Cisco® MDS 9509 multilayer director switches
San Jose building 12 data center also provides tape storage for
vital records, however, backup storage for San Jose is in the RTP
data center, which acts as a hot standby site

Trang 30Data Center Servers
¢ Servers
San Jose building 12 data center houses many servers in distributed environments that can be stacked and pooled together
Most run Linux and Windows OSs
Some are large, supporting multiple e-commerce
applications Others are smaller and highly specialized, such as the five Cisco® CallManagers, taking up
a quarter rack, that replaced a PBX in each of the 51 San Jose campus buildings

Smoke detection by one of many sensors mounted in the Smoke Sensor ceiling throughout the data center sets off an alarm,

designated panels on the wall to suspend the countdown

Trang 32Data Center — Earthquake Protection
¢ Earthquake Protection
Seismic isolation platforms in the main San Jose production data center allow equipment to survive an 8.3 earthquake with little or no damage
Platforms contain two parabolic plates with a large ball bearing in between
them
Hosts or frames are fastened to the upper seismic plate with nylon straps, which allows the upper portion of the >
platform to remain relatively stationary | while the lower portion and ground
move side to side in an earthquake
Trang 33Data Center — Temperature Sensing
¢ Temperature Sensing System
Concerned with temperature at the frame or host, Cisco® placed temperature sensors in many of the racks and frames, distributed in a grid-like pattern
Sensors connect to an IP-based console
network for remote monitoring
Alarm is sent to OCC if temperature at any
sensor exceeds threshold
Sensors have eliminated two or three
temperature-related system problems a year Temperature
Trang 34Cisco® IT Operations Data Center
¢ The Cisco® IT Operations Data Center on the San Jose,
California campus is one of five Cisco production data centers
worldwide
Supports Cisco’s intranet systems, enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems such as financials, data storage, IP telephony infrastructure, and a multitude of other employee-facing
applications and databases Houses the Operations Command Center (OCC), which monitors
business-critical resources within Cisco data centers worldwide
Occupies 14,269 square feet and consists of four areas:
Trang 35Cisco OCC
¢ Facilitates problem resolution for significant failures that could
affect business continuity
¢ Tracks and responds to high-priority issues regarding priority-
1 (P1) and priority-2 (P2) systems located in the five production and 41 engineering data centers worldwide
¢ Monitors about 8000 P1 and P2 hosts, including switches,
routers, and servers across all operating systems and
architectures, in addition to 374 P1 applications and 500 P2 applications
¢ San Jose OCC staff monitors network 6 a.m to 6 p.m Pacific
Time
¢ Similar command center within Divyasree data center building
in Bangalore, India, monitors network 6 p.m to 6 a.m Pacific Time

Trang 36OCC Responsibilities
¢ San Jose building 12 OCC staff provide communication,
coordination, and documentation during incidents involving a
P1 or P2 host or application
¢ Communication — Letting the right business or support
groups know about the existence of a down or degraded resource
¢ Coordination — Getting all duty support responders required
to identify and resolve a problem to talk together to keep the resolution process active
¢ Documentation — Capturing every detail of the incident, from
a short-term fix to a full recovery, in real time

Trang 37OCC Monitoring
¢ OCC uses the Enterprise Management
(EMAN) monitoring tool to perform Scoot =
alerting, change managementtracking, and “= ˆ — = : availability measurements =—ˆ
° Sends out series of two “pings” every 15
seconds to 10,000+ resources it monitors
24 hours a day
¢ If a resource fails to respond to one of
these, EMAN reports a degraded service
condition
¢ If the resource fails to respond to these
pings four times consecutively, EMAN reports zero percent availability—the
resource is down
¢ Failures associated with P1 and P2
resources are displayed in red on monitors within OCC
Trang 38Other OCC Responsibilities
¢ EMAN supports change management, which is
tightly integrated with the EMAN alerting process and availability monitoring
¢ OCC monitors all approved change requests within
their window of implementation—approximately 80 each day
¢ OCC team also involved with month-end and
quarter-end data processing, a large set of batch
jobs run to close the monthly financial cycle
