Abstract: In one embodiment, a system for managing a virtualization environment includes a set of host machines, each of which includes a hypervisor, virtual machines, and a virtual machine controller, one or more virtual disks comprising a plurality of storage devices, the one or more virtual disks being accessible by the virtual machine controllers, where the virtual machine controllers conduct I/O transactions with the virtual disks, and an upgrade system configured to receive a request to upgrade a virtualized file server on a plurality of host machines from a first program code version to a second program code version, for each host machine, generate a snapshot of a code image associated with the second program code version, and provide the snapshot to the host machine via the virtual disk. The virtual machine controller located on the host machine stores the snapshot on a first storage device associated with the host machine.

Abstract: Examples described herein include virtualized environments including a virtualized file server. Examples of file server virtual machine managers are described which may setup and/or configure file server virtual machines in accordance with a target number of connections and/or a target throughput for the virtualized file server. The virtualized file server may be scaled up, scaled down, scaled in, and/or scaled out.

Abstract: A replication policy management and scheduling technique of a Files service is configured for deployment in multi-site data replication environments. The technique involves policy management for data distribution and/or data consolidation (concentration) where multiple sources, e.g., file system (FS) clusters or sites, replicate the data to a central target FS site, e.g., in a spoke and hub arrangement typical of remote office/branch office environments. The technique also involves creation and configuration of a main replication policy by a customer at a central resource manager configured to interact and manage the FS sites, each of which includes one or more file server virtual machines.

Abstract: An example file server manager provides a user interface for selection of a share of a source distributed file server to be replicated at a destination distributed file server, where the share of the source distributed file server is accessed using a first file server virtual machine at the source distributed file server. The file server manager configures a policy for replication of the share of the source distributed file server to the destination distributed file server based on input received at the user interface and displays, at the user interface, a replication status for the share of the source distributed file server. The replication status indicates that a share of the destination distributed file server corresponding to the share of the source distributed file server has been updated based on a snapshot of the source distributed file server.
