Communication of configuration using an encoded visual representation

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a method, system, and computer program product for generating an encoded visual representation describing a computing node. The method includes identifying one or more first parameters for a first virtual machine hosted by the computing node. The method also includes encoding the one or more first parameters based on a coding reference. The method also includes generating a first dynamically generated encoded visual representation from one or more encoded first parameters.

1. A method for generating an encoded visual representation describing a computing node, comprising:
identifying one or more first parameters for a first virtual machine hosted by the computing node; encoding, using a standardized encoding format, the one or more first parameters based on a first coding reference, wherein the first coding reference includes a first table of codes that relates a third parameter of the one or more first parameters to the first virtual machine; generating a first dynamically generated encoded visual representation from the one or more encoded first parameters, wherein the first dynamically generated encoded visual representation is configured to display a new visual representation in response to a detection of a change to at least one of the one or more first parameters, and wherein the first dynamically generated encoded visual representation is a barcode; displaying the first dynamically generated encoded visual representation; identifying one or more second parameters for a first virtual machine hosted by the computing node; encoding, using a standardized encoding format, the one or more second parameters based on a second coding reference, wherein the second coding reference includes a second table of codes that relates a fourth parameter of the one or more second parameters to the first virtual machine; generating a second dynamically generated encoded visual representation from the one or more encoded second parameters, wherein the second dynamically generated encoded visual representation is configured to display a new barcode in response to a detection of a change to at least one of the one or more second parameters, and wherein the second dynamically generated encoded visual representation is a barcode; and displaying the second dynamically generated encoded visual representation.
