Implementing SharePoint Server 2010 on Dell vStart Solution - A Reference Architecture for a

SharePoint Server 2010 farm on vStart 100 Hyper-V Solution

Figure 5 Search Service Application - architecture

In Figure 5, the index partitions are represented as index 1 and index 2. The two primary index

partitions were mirrored, for redundancy, and a copy (or mirror) of the index partition was placed on

each application server. On both of the application servers, iSCSI initiators in guest OS were used to

connect the storage volumes created on the EqualLogic Storage backend.

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 3, for the WFE servers, two virtual network connections were used. These virtual

network connections were attached to the virtual switches created for farm traffic and NLB cluster

communication. Besides the farm virtual network connections, as shown in Figure 4, the application

servers also used virtual networks associated with the underlying virtual switch connected to the iSCSI

SAN network of the vStart infrastructure. These iSCSI connections within guest OS were used to connect

the application servers to the storage volumes on the EqualLogic arrays and were used to store and

retrieve search query index.

The vStart network architecture design and the segregation of LAN and SAN network helps in isolating

the SharePoint farm traffic from the iSCSI SAN traffic and therefore enhances the overall performance

of the farm.

Configuration of the database server

As shown in Figure 2, the SharePoint 2010 farm—built atop the vStart infrastructure—deployed two

virtual machines as the database servers. Two database servers were deployed in a highly available SQL

failover cluster, with redundant data paths at the database tier of the SharePoint farm. These
