ESXi 7.0 Update 1からSDカード/USBメモリ起動の場合に書き込み回数性能が重要になった件について


2023/05/15追記:「SD card/USB boot device revised guidance (85685)」の2023年2月更新版ではvSphere 8環境での取り扱いについて明記されている。

対処方法1: 普通のローカルディスク起動に変更
対処方法2: SD/USBからブートするが、別途データ保存用ローカルディスクを用意
対処方法3: ESXiをSANのディスクから直接ブートする
対処方法4: SD/USBからブートして、VMFS領域にデータを置く設定
対処方法5: SD/USBからブートして、RAMDISK上にデータを置く設定(再起動すると消える)

基本的にはローカルディスクを使え、という話のようです。


2022/08/05追記:「SD card/USB boot device revised guidance (85685)」にてvSphereの新バージョン(7.0の次)ではSDカード/USBメモリはブートの起点としてしか使えなくなり、別途何らかのストレージにOSDATAを配置する必要がある、ということになる。(新バージョンではRAMDISKは非推奨)


VMware vSphere / ESXi 7.0 から ESXiのブートディスクの構造が変更になった。

VMware vSphere Blog「vSphere 7 – ESXi System Storage Changes
「ESXi のシステム ストレージの概要」の「ESXi 7.0 のシステム ストレージの変更

ESXi 6.0時代 /scratch となっているパーテーションとかあるが、基本的に起動したあとデータ書き込みはあまりないかたちで運用されていた。

ところがESXi 7.0からは細かく分かれていたパーテーションがESX-OSDataパーテーションに統合されている。しかも、ここに書き込みが行われるようになった。

そして、ESXi 7.0 Update 1 / Update 2においてSDカード / USBメモリへの書き込み手法が変更され、起動ディスクに対して従来と比較すると多量の書き込み操作が実行されることになった。

これにより、ESXi 7.0 Update 1 / Update 2において、SDカード/USBメモリ起動にしている場合に、書き換え回数超過によるSDカード/USBメモリのアクセス不可事例が発生しやすくなっているようだ。

VMware KB VMFS-L Locker partition corruption on SD cards in ESXi 7.0 (83376)
VMware Technolopy Network「SD Boot issue Solution in 7.x

上記KB83376を見ると、ESXi 7.0(初期)ではI/O抑制機能があったが、ESXi 7.0 Update 1ではなくなったことが発生しやすくなった要因の1つであるようだ。

しかも、VMware的には「ESXi のシステム ストレージの概要」で、「ESX-OSData は 高耐久性ストレージ デバイス上に作成する必要があります。」と書いてあるから、書き換え回数上限が低いものを使わないのは当然でしょ、というスタンスな模様。

OEMメーカが選定したSDカードなどが死んだとしても、それはその部材を選んだOEMメーカ側の責任だということらしい。

実際、DELLの「VMware vSphere 7.x on Dell EMC PowerEdge Servers Getting Started Guide」の「Getting started with VMware vSphere」をみると、ESXi 7.0ではSDカードは推奨しない、と書いてある。

NOTE: If you had ordered VMware ESXi with your Dell EMC PowerEdge server, it is preinstalled on your server. The ESXi installer media is required for reinstallation. The Boot Optimized Storage Solution (BOSS) card is the preferred non-HDD or SSD device for VMware ESXi 7.0 installation. The Dell Internal Dual SD Module (IDSDM) install is no longer recommended due to write endurance issues with the SD flash media. For more information, see the Storage Requirements for ESXi 7.0 Installation or Upgrade section on the VMware ESXi Installation and Setup Guide or see VMware Knowledge Base article 2145210.

さて、この問題について、とることができる方策は下記の5つが考えられる。

その1) 高耐久性のものに変更する(USB接続のSSDや、MLCチップのSDカードなど)
その2) 普通のSSDやHDD起動に変更する
その3) ESXi 7.0 Update 2用の現象低減パッチが7月中にリリース予定(ただし、低減、である)
      → 2021/08/24リリースのESXi 7.0 U2cで提供開始
その4) メインメモリを消費してRamdiskを作成し、そこに書き込ませる
その5) あきらめて、壊れたら交換&ESXi再セットアップ

その4の手法はVMware KB83376 内にリンクがあり「High frequency of read operations on VMware Tools image may cause SD card corruption (2149257)」で説明されている。

ドキュメント的にはESXi 6.0 と ESXi 6.5用になっているが、ESXi 7.0でも適用できるようだ。

ESXi 7.0のshellに入って、現在の /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk の設定を確認

# esxcli system settings advanced list -o /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk
   Path: /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk
   Type: integer
   Int Value: 0
   Default Int Value: 0
   Min Value: 0
   Max Value: 1
   String Value:
   Default String Value:
   Valid Characters:
   Description: Use VMware Tools repository from /tools ramdisk.
#

「Int Value: 0」ということなので、現在は「0」となっている。

これを1に変更するため、以下を実行する

# esxcli system settings advanced set -o /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk -i 1
#

変更が反映されたか確認

# esxcli system settings advanced list -o /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk
   Path: /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk
   Type: integer
   Int Value: 1
   Default Int Value: 0
   Min Value: 0
   Max Value: 1
   String Value:
   Default String Value:
   Valid Characters:
   Description: Use VMware Tools repository from /tools ramdisk.
#

「Int Value: 1」となっていたら変更されている。

この後、ESXi を再起動して、RAMディスクを実際に稼働させる。

ESXi設定のバックアップ&リストア

SDカード/USBメモリが壊れることを許容する場合、ESXiの設定ファイルをバックアップしておき、再セットアップ時にリストアする、という手法が考えられる。

手法はVMware KB「ESXi ホストの構成のバックアップ方法 (2042141)

リストアの際、ESXiにIPアドレスを割り当てておく必要がある。


具体的にどれくらいの書き込み要求があるんだろう?と調べて見た。

DELL PartnerSEつぶやきブログ「BOSSってなんだろう?」から、ESXiが要求するSSD/Flashデバイスに対する要求要件が書かれた「vSphere SSD and Flash Device Support (2145210)」を発見

それによると下記のようになっている。

Table 1: SSD/Flash Endurance Requirements 

SSD/Flash Device Use CaseJEDEC Endurance RequirementWorkload CharectizationNotes
Host Swap Cache365 TBW or betterRandom, infrequent writesHost memory rarely overcommitted
3650 TBW or betterRandom, frequent writesHost memory routinely overcommitted

128 TBW (colocated) 2,5
Sequential7
(WAF < 100 block mode, WAF < 10 page mode)
Size >= 4GB2,3

ESXi起動デバイスとしては2TBWぐらいだったものが、ログデバイスとしての128TBWぐらいが要求され、USBメモリ上を仮想マシンを置く用のVMFSデータストアとしての使うとなると3650TBWが要求される、などと、起動ディスクとして使うだけの場合より50倍以上の要求がある、ということがわかった。

そりゃ、あっさり死にますね


2022/05/06追記

ESXi 7.0U1 では /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk という変数自体がない。

ESXi 7.0U3 だと /UserVars/ToolsRamdisk はあり、システムのインストール先が HDD か SDカードかによって、「Default Int Value」の値が異なっていた。

HDDでは「0」で、SDカードだと「1」となっていた。

このため、手動で変更する必要性は薄いようだ。(SDカードなら必ず”1″となるかは、ドキュメント上に特に記載されていないため、確認を行うこと)


2022/07/21追記

VMware KBに「SD card/USB boot device revised guidance (85685)」という記事が登場

SDカードやUSBメモリからの起動は可能であるものの推奨しないこととなった。

NVMeやSSDから起動しろ、とのこと。

SDカードやUSBメモリから起動した場合でも、OSDATAパーテーションを別のHDDなどに設定する、ということが推奨される。

ESXi 7.xまではRAMDISKで回避することもできるが、次のESXiではその設定はなくなる、とのこと

ESXiのみ環境でPowerCLIを使ってテンプレートもどきの動作をする手法


vCenterサーバがない、ESXiサーバのみ環境ではテンプレート機能が使用できない。

とはいえ、テンプレート化した仮想マシンの中身を見ると、ふつうと同じく仮想ハードディスクのvmdkファイルが存在しているので、vmdkファイルをコピーして、新規仮想マシンを作成するPowerCLIスクリプトをかけば、似たようなことができるな、と実験。

準備するもの

・PowerCLIをインストールした環境
Windows 10で実行したが、Linux環境にPowerShell+PowerCLIをセットアップしてもいけるはず。

・Windowsの場合、sysprepを実行してシャットダウンしたvmdkファイル
sysprepを実行して、次回起動時に初期セットアップが開始されるようにしたvmdkファイル。
VMware-toolsはインストール済みであることが望ましい。

・Linuxの場合、下記の情報などを削除
RHEL7の仮想化の導入および管理ガイド第4章 仮想マシンのクローン作成によれば
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules を削除
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_* を削除
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth* などから IPADDRESS,NETMASK,HWADDRなどの値削除

解説

仮想マシンにハードディスクを追加する

仮想マシンに新しく空っぽのハードディスクを追加する場合は、「New-HardDisk -VM 仮想マシン ~」で指定するが、Copy-HardDiskでコピーしてきたハードディスクを登録する場合が分かりづらかった。

結果としては、新規と同じく「New-HardDisk -VM 仮想マシン ~」でよかった。

今回の場合は、CopyHardDiskを実行した結果を変数にいれて、それをNew-HardDIskで登録、という形にした。

$adddiskinfo=Copy-HardDisk -Harddisk $sourcevmdk -DestinationPath $targetvmdk -DestinationStorageFormat Thin

$vm = get-Vm $vmname
New-HardDisk -VM $vm -DiskPath $adddiskinfo.Filename

仮想マシンハードウェアにUSB 3.0コントローラを追加する

Host Clientから作成した場合は、USB 3.0コントローラが作成されていたが、New-VMコマンドでは作成されなかった。このため、Windowsが起動した後にUSBマウスが存在できず、マウス操作ができなかった。(キーボードはPS/2キーボード扱いとして使えたようだった)

このUSB 3.0コントローラを追加するための操作がわからず、いろいろ調べたところ「Where is the “Get-USBController” cmdlet? (Same with Remove- and New-)」の記述を見て、USB 2.0コントローラの追加手法が分かった。

その後、VirtualUSBController を起点に調べることで、 xHCIはVirtualUSBXHCIControllerという名前であることがわかり、解決した

$vm=Get-VM -Name 仮想マシン名
$newSpec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
$newSpec.deviceChange = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec[] (1)
$newSpec.deviceChange[0] = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec
$newSpec.deviceChange[0].operation = "add"
#$newSpec.deviceChange[0].device = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualUSBController # USB2.0コントローラ
$newSpec.deviceChange[0].device = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualUSBXHCIController # USB3.0コントローラ

# 仮想マシンへの設定反映
#(get-view $vm).ReconfigVM_Task($newSpec)
$vm.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($newSpec)

設定を反映する部分は、ネタ元では「Get-View」を使っていたが、後述のSecureBootについての結果ではGet-VM経由で実施しているスクリプトがあったので、それを使用している。

BIOS/EFI切り替え

仮想マシンをBIOS起動にするか、EFI起動にするかを設定する手法。

2021現在のPowerCLIでNew-VMした時のデフォルトはEFI起動でセキュアブート有効になっている。

これをBIOS起動に設定する場合は、セキュアブートを無効にしてからBIOSに切り替える必要があるので下記にようになる。

$vm=Get-VM -Name 仮想マシン名
$newSpec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec

$bootOptions = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineBootOptions
$bootOptions.EfiSecureBootEnabled = $false
$newSpec.BootOptions=$bootOptions

$newSpec.Firmware = [VMware.Vim.GuestOsDescriptorFirmwareType]::bios

$vm.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($newSpec)



OVAファイルをOVFに変換する


NetAppシミュレータの古いバージョンは圧縮ありのOVAファイルで提供されている。

これをvSphere 7.0環境で使おうとすると、圧縮されているので使えない、と拒否される。

変換ツールを使ってもよいのだが、手動でも変換できる

OVAファイルは中にovfファイルとvmdkファイルが入っているだけのtarファイルなので、7zipなどのツールを使って展開できる。

vsphere 7.0ではvmdk.gzは使えないので、これも展開する

OVFファイルの中身はXMLファイルとなっていて、元の中身は、vmdk.gzのファイルを指定している。

これを展開後のファイル名とファイルサイズに置き換える

また「ovf:compression=”gzip”」という記述も削除する

こうやって出来たOVFファイルとVMDKファイルを複数指定してvSphereで読み込ませる。

読み込ませる下記の様な形で「5ファイル」という表示になる

記述に問題なければOVFテンプレートのデプロイが継続できる。

CLIでvSphere 7.0のvCenter Server アプライアンスを構築


現場でvSphere 7.0環境のvCSAが死んで再構築が必要になった。

Windows環境は無い。LinuxのX-Window環境があるので、vcsa-ui-installer/lin64/installer を実行してインストール、と思ったが要求されるライブラリが多くインストールされていないやつもあったので、断念。

CLIインストーラを使ってインストールを実施した。

vCenter Server アプライアンスの CLI デプロイ」に従って実行

まず必要なものは「vcsa-cli-installer/templates/install/embedded_vCSA_on_ESXi.json」を書き換えできる場所にコピーしての編集。

「cp embedded_vCSA_on_ESXi.json ~/」とかでコピーして、「vi ~/embedded_vCSA_on_ESXi.json」で編集という感じ。
