Port profile analytics

摘要

One embodiment of the present invention provides a computer system. The computer system includes a display mechanism, a storage, and a migration management mechanism. The storage stores a data structure indicating one or more port profiles. The migration management mechanism identifies one or more port profiles associated with a target switch for a migrating virtual machine, wherein the target switch is coupled to a target host machine of the virtual machine and recommends whether the target switch is suitable for the virtual machine by examining an identifier to the virtual machine in the port profiles associated with the target switch using the display mechanism.

主权项

1. A computer system, comprising:
a storage storing a data structure comprising one or more port profiles; and a migration management module operable to:
identify one or more port profiles associated with a target switch for a migrating virtual machine, wherein the target switch is coupled to a target host machine of the migrating virtual machine; andidentify the target switch as not recommendable in response to identifying a mismatch between a port profile associated with the target switch and a port profile associated with a source switch of the virtual machine.
