A Study on UNIX Server Consolidation by Virtualization
Yong Hui Lee, Hyun Gi Kim · Advanced Science and Technology Letters · 2014
In this paper, problems that additional hardwares should be introduced due to the introduction of new servers are reduced by reducing the space on the top surface of the computer data center after many old physical UNIX servers are loaded on one new virtualization consolidation server. In addition, some effects for reducing the computer maintenance cost and the power consumption of the computer data center could be generated. With such virtualization of UNIX server consolidation, it is expected that the maintenance cost of the computer center will be reduced in the future as well as currently and IT will be changed into green-IT. The method for establishing a virtualization of server consolidation which is applied in this paper can be applied in the same way that other group of servers are consolidation.
