ADMINISTERING VIRTUAL MACHINES IN A DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT |
摘要 |
In a distributed computing environment that includes hosts that execute a VMM, with each VMM supporting execution of one or more VMs, administering VMs may include: assigning, by a VMM manager, the VMMs of the distributed computing environment to a logical tree topology, including assigning one of the VMMs as a root VMM of the tree topology; and executing, amongst the VMMs of the tree topology, a scatter operation, including: pausing, by the root VMM one or more executing VMs; storing, by the root VMM in a buffer, a plurality of VMs to scatter amongst the other VMMs of the tree topology; and sending, by the root VMM, to each of the other VMMs of the tree topology a different one of the VMs stored in the buffer. |

1. A method of administering a plurality of virtual machines (‘VMs’) in a distributed computing environment, the distributed computing environment comprising a plurality of hosts, one or more of the hosts executing a virtual machine monitor (‘VMM’), each VMM supporting execution of one or more VMs, the method comprising:
assigning, by a VMM manager, the VMMs of the distributed computing environment to a logical tree topology, including assigning one of the VMMs as a root VMM of the tree topology; and executing, amongst the VMMs of the tree topology, a scatter operation, including:
pausing, by the root VMM one or more executing VMs;storing, by the root VMM in a buffer, a plurality of VMs to scatter amongst the other VMMs of the tree topology; andsending, by the root VMM, to each of the other VMMs of the tree topology a different one of the VMs stored in the buffer. |
