发明名称 Authorized remote access to an operating system hosted by a virtual machine
摘要 Proposed is a concept for providing authorized remote access to an operating system hosted by a virtual machine. First and second authentication tokens are generated at a client system and communication to a server system providing the virtual machine. The validity of the first and second authentication tokens is verified at the server system. If the validity of the first authentication token is verified, the operating system is shut-down. Then, if the validity of the second authentication token is verified, the operating system is re-started.

主权项 1. A method for providing authorized remote access to an operating system hosted by a virtual machine (VM), the method comprising: defining, at a client system, a first profile and a first key for a first user and a second profile and a second key for a second user, the first profile and first key for the first user and the second profile and the second key for the second user also being defined on a server system; receiving, at the client system from the first user, a request for an initial program load (IPL) of an operating system hosted by the VM, the VM being provided by a server system; generating, at the client system, a first authentication token for the second user and a shut-down instruction for shutting down the operating system, the first authentication token being generated based on the second key of the second user the second user currently having access to the operation system; communicating, by the client system, the first authentication token and the shut-down instruction to the server system, the first authentication token being verifiable by the server system using the second key prior to execution of the shut-down instruction on the server system to shut-down the operating system; confirming, at the client system, the shut-down of the operating system; in response to the confirming, generating, at the client system, a second authentication token for the first user and an IPL instruction for restarting the operating system, the second authentication token being generated based on the first key of the first user; and communicating, by the client system, the second authentication token and the IPL instruction to the server system, the second authentication token being verifiable by the server system using the first key prior to execution of the IPL instruction on the server system to re-start the operating system.
