CLAUSE
2.4.1.1
DESCRIPTION
CNM is seeking solutions for Assessment, Design, and Deployment of a
Virtual Desktop environment for 2 to 3 computer labs and classrooms
and, 50 to 60 virtualized desktops and/or applications.
Overall
considerations in response must include hardware resources,
application delivery design, software and licensing, networking and
firewalls, storage, configuration and diagnostics and forensics. CNM’s
only virtualization infrastructure is vSphere 5.1 utilizing NetApp backend
storage with iSCSI and NFS protocols. CNM shall provide sufficient
Server and storage hardware for the POC. The VM’s can be connected
to the campus AD infrastructure. The primary protocols for storage are
NFS and iSCSI and we will have spare disks we can architect for the
pilot. The respondents will also be responsible for assessing the
environment to determine if the identified labs and classrooms are good
candidates for VDI.
2.4.1.2
MANDATORY – Provide the use of VDI assessment tools equal to or
similar to LakeSide SysTrack VMP for Lab and Classroom Workstations
analysis to determine requirements and feasibility of deploying a VDI
infrastructure. Define users and application analysis that can benefit
from a virtual desktop environment; existing load characterization to
identify the time-correlated loading expected in CNM virtual
environment. “What-if-analysis” to plot virtualized server models and
accounts for data volatility. Target hypervisor hardware selection for
virtualization through analyzes data to select the appropriate host
servers and the configuration required. Prescribe mappings for existing
desktops and server to hypervisors for optimal savings and results.
Automate documentation creation of a proposed migration plan that
includes a customized Executive Summary and technical analysis
documents
2.4.1.3
The evaluation process will include main and all 5 defined remote
campus environments for a complete assessment over all LAN, MAN
and WAN links. This assessment will allow CNM to plan and predict the
needs of all three phases of the VDI project. CNM expects to develop
a complete infrastructure deployment strategy and documentation for all
phases of the VDI project
2.4.1.4
MANDATORY – Assist with the deployment and integration of Virtual
Machine Planner application to collect analysis data as stated in 2.4.1.2.
Assist in the production and analysis of data points collected during
analysis process. CNM technicians can schedule agents to push the
client to all classrooms and labs to be analyzed
2.4.1.5
MANDATORY – Design the VDI POC Phase I environment based on
the functional requirements for the 3 labs and the respective 50 to 60
clients. Identify resources to be used. Assess hypervisor infrastructure
and determine placement of server components. Identify storage
methods. Assist with identifying master client machine(s) that will be
used to create the virtual desktop templates.
2.4.1.6
MANDATORY – Determine desktop grouping: pooled or assigned.
Determine desktop image persistence. Identify user access methods
and define agreed upon approach. Define profile infrastructure and
security policies. Develop design for the POC environment to provide
the functional components needed to evaluate the product.
2.4.1.7
MANDATORY - Assist with define testing scenario for assuring the
