Abstract: Server consolidation using virtual machine resource tradeoffs, is provided. One implementation involves assigning a virtual machine to a target physical server based on a plurality of virtualization parameters for maximizing utility of a plurality of virtual machines and physical servers. The assigning performs resource allocation for the virtual machine based on capabilities of the target physical server and a plurality of virtual machine resource requirements. Virtualization parameters include a reservation parameter (min) representing a minimum resources required for a VM, a limit parameter (max) representing a maximum resources allowable for the VM, and a weight parameter (shares) representing a share of spare resources for the VM.

Automated profiling of resource usage
Michael David Marr,Matthew D. Klein +1 more
- 20 Sep 2012
TL;DR: In this paper, operating profiles for consumers of computing resources may be automatically determined based on an analysis of actual resource usage measurements and other operating metrics and assignment decisions may be made based on the profiles, and computing resources can be reallocated or oversubscribed if the profiles indicate that the consumers are unlikely to fully utilize the resources reserved for them.

Black-box and gray-box strategies for virtual machine migration
Timothy Wood,Prashant Shenoy,Arun Venkataramani,Mazin Yousif +3 more
- 11 Apr 2007
TL;DR: This work presents Sandpiper, a system that automates the task of monitoring and detecting hotspots, determining a new mapping of physical to virtual resources and initiating the necessary migrations, and implements a black- box approach that is fully OS- and application-agnostic and a gray-box approach that exploits OS-and- application-level statistics.
