1 Introduction

HP CloudSystem Matrix is the industry’s first Converged Infrastructure platform that doubles administrator productivity and reduces total cost of ownership (TCO) versus traditional infrastructures. HP CloudSystem Matrix integrates silos of compute, storage, network, and facilities resources with unified management to deliver a virtualized, highly automated environment. The HP Matrix Operating Environment (Matrix OE) provides the automated provisioning, optimization, and recovery management capabilities for HP CloudSystem Matrix.

This document describes the rich set of HP Matrix OE infrastructure orchestration (IO) interfaces available to HP customers, partners, and integrators. These interfaces allow customers to integrate Matrix OE into their business and IT operations processes. Partners and Integrators can use the interfaces in combination with their own offerings to provide new, rich capabilities. HP is committed to an industry open standard cloud services API, and submitted this content to the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) Cloud Incubator, which has now been moved to the recently formed DMTF Cloud Management Working Group.

The API and CLI interfaces were introduced in HP BladeSystem Matrix/Matrix OE (Insight Dynamics) 6.0, and are expected to be compatible with subsequent releases, but are subject to change due to evolving standards. Future releases may include additional interfaces.

HP Matrix OE infrastructure orchestration provides extensive out-of-the-box functionality that is pre-integrated with HP Insight Control and HP System Insight Manager software, including:

•A graphical designer used to create templates describing the architecture and requirements of infrastructure services. These templates are published into a catalog.

•Self service users pick a particular template from the catalog and initiate the creation of an infrastructure service from that template.

•Administrative users create pools containing blades, virtual machine hosts together with associated storage and subnets. One or more pools are assigned to one or users and this defines the potential set of resources that can be used in the processing of self service user requests. Administrative users also can review, approve, or reject user requests.

•After creation of the service, the self-service user can further extend the service. For example, add additional disk and server resources to the service. In non-peak periods server resources can be deactivated, allowing those resources to be powered down, or used by another service.

•IO includes an embedded version of HP Operations Orchestration (OO) workflow engine. This engine can be used by customers and partners to extend the capabilities of IO and to allow IO operations to be integrated into the customer environment.

•All access to IO functionality is secured by username/password login and restricted by the assigned role of the particular user.

◦

◦

The most restrictive role, User, has access to published templates (or a subset) and their own services. User requests are subject to approval by an Administrator.

The Architect role extends the capability of User, allowing the creation and publication of templates, as well as the provisioning of non-published templates to allow testing.

◦The Organization Administrator role extends the role of Architect, and allows the viewing and manipulation of all services owned by that organization. Organization Administrator initiated operations do not need their own approval.

◦The Service Provider Administrator role also extends the role of Architect, and allows the viewing and manipulation of all services in the environment. Service Provider Administrator initiated operations do not need their own approval.
