摘要:
A method for load balancing virtual machines includes accessing specification and utilization information for selected networked hardware platforms published on a network, the networked hardware platforms configured to run virtual machines and scoring the selected networked hardware platforms based on parameters from the utilization information to indicate resource availability for each of the selected networked hardware platforms. The method also includes removing a networked hardware platform from the selected networked hardware platforms based on a collocation policy to produce candidate platforms to receive a first virtual machine, wherein the collocation policy prohibits placement of the first virtual machine on the networked hardware platform based on at least one of consumer rules, provider rules, and industry rules.

摘要:
A method for virtual machine management that includes establishing a first virtual machine on a hardware platform, performing a selected task on the first virtual machine and recording a first data set indicating a characteristic of the first virtual machine performing the selected task. The method also includes establishing a second virtual machine on the hardware platform, performing the selected task on the first and second virtual machines, recording a second data set indicating the characteristic of the first and second virtual machines performing the selected task and indicating acceptable data and unacceptable data within the first and second data sets. The method also includes creating and training a decision tree based on the acceptable and unacceptable data from the first and second data sets and inputting a third data set from a third virtual machine into the decision tree to determine if the third virtual machine is over-constrained.
摘要:
A method for load balancing virtual machines includes accessing current consumption data and historical consumption data for a first virtual machine running on a host hardware platform, wherein the host hardware platform is coupled to a network and accessing specification and utilization information for networked hardware platforms published on the network by each networked hardware platform, wherein the networked hardware platforms each include a hardware platform configured to run virtual machines. The method also includes selecting a target platform from the networked hardware platforms to receive the first virtual machine based on the published specification and utilization information for the networked hardware platforms and consumption data for the first virtual machine, wherein the first virtual machine will operate on the target platform in a condition that is not over-constrained.

摘要:
A system, method and computer program product for enhancing a real-time operating system (RTOS) with functionality normally associated with a general purpose operating system (GPOS). A hypervisor that is adapted to perform a real-time scheduling function supports concurrent execution of an RTOS and a GPOS on a system of shared hardware resources. The RTOS or its applications can utilize services provided by the GPOS. Such services may include one or more of file system organization, network communication, network management, database management, security, user-interface support and others. To enhance operational robustness and security, the hypervisor can be placed in read-only storage while maintaining the ability to update scheduling mechanisms. A programmable policy manager that is maintained in read-write storage can be used to dictate scheduling policy changes to the hypervisor as required to accommodate current needs.
