Study Notes
Intelligent Logging and Analytics for VMware Cloud Foundation
- VMware Cloud Foundation services are supported by intelligent logging and analytics
- This document details the components of an intelligent logging and analytics solution
- The solution provides log management, analytics, and extensibility across diverse environments
- The document provides information about the design, implementation, and operational guidance
- The solution is intended for cloud architects and administrators familiar with VMware software
Design Objectives
- Provide logging, analytics, and reporting for VMware Cloud Foundation infrastructure components
- vSAN ReadyNodes
- Consolidated, Standard
- Single VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) instance
- Multiple VCF instances with NSX Federation
- Single or multiple VCF instances with multiple availability zones
- Support for Dell VxRail Nodes and standard configurations
- Workload domain type support
- Detailed design, implementation, and operational guidance
- Solution interoperability with other components
Detailed Design of Intelligent Logging and Analytics
- Deploy a VMware Aria Operations for Logs cluster with three nodes (primary and two workers)
- Use an integrated load balancer (ILB) to manage connections
- VMware Aria Operations for Logs collects logs from VCF components centrally
- This design supports continued availability, increased log ingestion rate, and scale-out
Deployment Specification
- The design decisions cover physical design, sizing, and high-availability considerations for VMware Aria Operations for Logs
- VCF instances with one and multiple availability zones
- High availability using vSphere HA, and node placement rules
- Configurable log retention and archiving
- VMware Aria Operations for Logs cluster is deployed in the default management vSphere cluster for a single VCF instance, in a dedicated folder for better organization
- Placement in a dedicated VM folder
- VMware Aria Operations for Logs cluster runs in the first availability zone, failing over to the second zone if required
Network Design
- VMware Aria Operations for Logs nodes are connected to the local-instance NSX segment for isolation
- The network segments are structured for management domain placement
- The design specifies support for overlay-backed or VLAN-backed NSX segments
- IPv4 static addressing for efficient management and tracking
- Internal DNS forward (A) and reverse (PTR) records for better management of log routing and addressing
- Configurations for Log Forwarding Between VCF instances and VMware Aria Operations for Logs
- Log forwarding between VCF instances
- Log forwarding module support for both structured and unstructured data, multi-line messages, and metadata
- Support for Log Forwarding Between VMware Cloud Foundation instances and VMware Aria Operations for Logs. This ensures access to logs in case of disaster. The solution uses the Ingestion API (TCP) or syslog implementation.
IP Addressing
- Static IP addresses are assigned to VMware Aria Operations for Logs nodes and the load balancer
- Consistent addressing across multiple VCF instances
Name Resolution
- DNS records (A and PTR) are configured for VMware Aria Operations for Logs nodes
- Name resolution translates IP addresses to FQDNs for easier management
Load Balancing
- An integrated load balancer (ILB) is used for managing connections to VMware Aria Operations for Logs
- This simplifies configuration and reduces single points of failure
Time Synchronization
- Network Time Protocol (NTP) synchronizes time across all components within the SDDC
- NTP ensures consistent time synchronization for VMware Aria Operations for Logs nodes
Life Cycle Management
- VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle manages patching, updates, and hotfixes for VMware Aria Operations for Logs
VMware Aria Operations for Logs Design for Intelligent Logging and Analytics
- Content packs are used for log ingestion, extraction, and analysis
- Configuring syslog or Aria Operations for Logs agents in logging sources; using TCP for communication
- Log retention and archive design considerations
- Log archiving storage space is determined by policy, allowing retention beyond real-time
- Supports log archival storage on NFSv3
Logging Sources
- vCenter Server, ESXi hosts, NSX Manager, NSX Edge
- Workspace ONE Access, and SDDC Manager
- VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
Solution Interoperability
- Integrating with other components in the SDDC (operations management, business continuity, etc.) using pre-defined integration points
Monitoring and Alerting
- Monitoring the components post-implementation.
- Solutions for monitoring and alerting are validated
- Metrics on the availability of the VMware Aria Operations for Logs cluster are provided.
Disaster Recovery
- VMware Aria Operations for Logs are deployed in each VCF instance
- Failed-over components point to the instance in the recovery site (for disaster recovery)
Life Cycle Management
- VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle manages upgrades and patching for the solution components deployed in the VCF environment
- Patch updates or upgrades to the VMware Aria Operations for Logs cluster are managed by VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle.
