3 3© Copyright 2013 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Defining “Workflow” and “Orchestrator” In general terms, a workflow is the automation of a business process, in whole or part, during which documents, information or tasks are passed from one participant to another for action, according to a set of procedural rules. Orchestrator is a workflow management system, which is A system that defines, creates and manages the execution of workflows through the use of software, running on one or more workflow engines, which is able to interpret the process definition, interact with workflow participants and, where required, invoke the use of IT tools and applications.

System Center 2012 Orchestrator  A workflow management solution for the data center  Automate IT processes/operations TermDescription RunbookAutomated procedure ActivityA single task in a runbook that performs a specific function Integration Pack A collection of custom activities that is specific to a product or a technology

6 6© Copyright 2013 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. How does Orchestrator fit into System Center? As part of the System Center family, Orchestrator provides IT process automation of incident response, provisioning, virtual lifecycle management and change management. This is achieved through a workflow environment that orchestrates and integrates System Center tools, enabling interoperability and process consistency across the datacenter. Unlike the rest of System Center, Orchestrator is a 32-bit application.

8 8© Copyright 2013 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Orchestrator Components Orchestrator FeatureDescription Management Server Communication layer between the Runbook Designer and the orchestration database Runbook Server Where an instance of a runbook runs. Runbook Designer Tool used to build, edit, and manage Orchestrator runbooks. Orchestration Console Allows user to start or stop runbooks and view real-time status on a web browser. Orchestrator Web Service REST-based service that enables custom applications to connect to Orchestrator to start and stop runbooks, and retrieve information about operations by using custom applications or scripts. Deployment Manager Tool used to deploy integration packs (IPs), runbook servers, and Runbook Designers.

10 10© Copyright 2013 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Business Case for Orchestrator  Data center administration by GUI  Activities from multiple sources can be strung together for process automation (runbooks)  New runbooks can be constructed by less expensive resources than high-end script writers  Runbooks can be run manually or triggered by monitors or alerts from other System Center components

11 11© Copyright 2013 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Why ESI SCO Integration Pack?  Simplified EMC Storage Provisioning –Activities encapsulate functions into logical processes  Can perform provisioning on call from multiple System Center components (SCOM, SCVMM, SCSM, SCDPM, etc)  Works with physical and virtual hosts and high- availability failover clusters  Works with current popular EMC storage systems
