OPTIMAL ASSIGNMENT OF VIRTUAL MACHINES AND VIRTUAL DISKS USING MULTIARY TREE

摘要

A multiary tree represents relationships among physical storage units and host computing devices. Virtual machines are optimally assigned among the host computing devices, and virtual disks of the virtual machines are optimally assigned among the physical storage units, using and extending the multiary tree used on constraints. The constraints regard the physical storage units, the host computing devices, the virtual machines, and the virtual disks.
