The state parameter that described acquisition module 201 is obtained sends to operational module 202.
Operational module 202 is used for the work according to described state parameter control indicating module, and definite source physical machine and target physical machine are with the work of control transferring module.
Operational module 202 is determined the source physical machine based on scene input, described field external input be the Hardware Engineer in machine room by being positioned at the input of the load module 205 on this field management crust of the device.The input interface that any type can be provided is as described load module 205, and for example mouse, keyboard, touch-screen etc. are so that receive Hardware Engineer's input.As an alternative, if described field management device is implemented as chip and peripheral module on the blade server system backboard, then described shell refers to the cabinet of blade server system, and load module is positioned on the cabinet of blade server system as one of peripheral module.
In one embodiment, receive the appointment of Hardware Engineer to source physical machine and target physical machine by operational module 202, then operational module 202 control indicating modules 203 show described state parameter so that the Hardware Engineer can be according to described state parameter decision target physical machine; Operational module 202 further receives the appointment to the target physical machine.After having determined source physical machine and target physical machine, operational module 202 sends the migration instruction to transferring module 204, and described migration instruction comprises source physical machine sign, virtual machine sign and the target physical machine sign corresponding with this virtual machine.Need to prove, can be at all virtual machines on the physical machine of source to the appointment of target physical machine, and this in particular cases described migration instruction can only comprise that source physical machine sign and target physical machine identify.
In another embodiment, the Hardware Engineer is the assigned source physical machine only, and field management device 200 is decided the target physical machine in its sole discretion.Operational module 202 determines the target physical machine according to described state parameter, and sends the migration instruction that comprises that source physical machine sign, virtual machine sign and the target physical machine corresponding with this virtual machine identify to transferring module 204.Equally, the target physical machine that operational module 202 is determined may be all identical to all virtual machines on the physical machine of source, and this in particular cases described migration instruction can only comprise source physical machine sign and target physical machine sign.
Need to prove that no matter described field management device is set up data by which kind of mode and physical machine is connected, the Hardware Engineer only can carry out assigned source physical machine and/or target physical machine by operational module, and can not carry out other operations.This is because consider that from the angle of data security the Hardware Engineer should be able to be by the data on the described field management device visit physical machine.This can only accept appointment to source physical machine and/or target physical machine by operational module 204 by adopting the order filtering technique, does not realize and do not accept other any orders.
Indicating module 203, whether the virtual machine that is used on indication source physical machine under the control of operational module 202 all moves.
Specified by the Hardware Engineer among the embodiment of target physical machine, described indicating module 203 shows the state parameter that acquisition module 201 is obtained.As mentioned above, state parameter comprises for what virtual machines on the physical machine of source, therefore just can indicate the virtual machine on the physical machine of source whether all to move to other physical machine naturally by the show state parameter.In the present embodiment, indicating module 203 can comprise the display screen of fritter, how be used for showing each physical machine state parameter relevant that is connected, so that the Hardware Engineer can arrive the target physical machine with the virtual machine (vm) migration on the physical machine of source according to these state parameter decisions with virtual machine.This display screen is controlled according to described state parameter by operational module 202.
Management devices 200 is decided in its sole discretion among the embodiment of target physical machine at the scene.Described indicating module 203 can include only simple indicator for example light emitting diode or sounding component, is used to inform the virtual machine all migrations on the physical machine of Hardware Engineer source, can carry out hardware maintenance to the source physical machine.This indicator is also controlled according to described state parameter by operational module 202.
Certainly, for further for simplicity, can not provide indicating module.The Hardware Engineer is rule of thumb waiting for that long enough after the time cuts off the power supply this physical machine so that carry out hardware maintenance.At this moment, if by Hardware Engineer's assigned source physical machine and target physical machine, can further omit acquisition module so.As to the substituting of described indicating module, can increase automatic power-off modular, the mode of operational module 202 these automatic power-off modulars of control is similar with the mode of the above-mentioned indicator of control.
Indicating module is positioned on the shell of described field management device.As an alternative, if described field management device is implemented as chip and peripheral module on the blade server system backboard, then described shell refers to the cabinet of blade server system, and indicating module is positioned on the cabinet of blade server system as one of peripheral module.
Transferring module 204 is used under the control of operational module 202 virtual machine being moved to the target physical machine from the source physical machine.
As mentioned above, field management device 200 is connected to each physical machine by universal network circuit or special-purpose physical electrical, transferring module 204 connects by this universal network circuit or special-purpose physical electrical, communicate by letter with the virtual level on the target physical machine with the source physical machine respectively, thereby finish the migration of virtual machine.When migration is finished thereby the advantage of this implementation method is the transition process grasp on top of of field management device; Shortcoming is to need the field management device that more intense processing power is arranged.
In one embodiment, can communicate with one another between the virtual level on the physical machine and finish virtual machine (vm) migration voluntarily.In this case, transferring module 204 is instructed according to described migration, and the sign of target physical machine is sent to the source physical machine, by the virtual level of the source physical machine beginning virtual machine (vm) migration of directly communicating by letter with the target physical machine.The advantage of this implementation method is that the field management device only is responsible for starting migration, and is lower to the requirement of processing power; Shortcoming be the field management device need by to described state parameter obtain determine whether migration is finished.
No matter be above which kind of situation, because this migration only relates to virtual level, so the application on each virtual machine can not find to have carried out virtual machine (vm) migration, thereby keeps continuous operation.Exchanges data between source physical machine and the target physical machine can be undertaken by above-mentioned special-purpose physical electrical connection or universal network circuit.
Except with the upper module, described field management device 200 can also possess authentication module, and this module is configured to verify the current operator virtual machine (vm) migration of whether having the right to carry out.As mentioned above, because field management device 200 is positioned at machine room, and machine room itself has often had corresponding demo plant, so field management device 200 can verify once more, thereby omits described authentication module.
Fig. 3 is the process flow diagram according to the method that is used for managing virtual machines of the embodiment of the invention.
Step 301, the field management device is determined the source physical machine by receiving from the outside to the appointment of source physical machine.
Before step 301, may further include the current operator of checking and whether have the right to carry out the step of virtual machine (vm) migration, only in the checking result when being, just carry out step 301.
Step 302, the field management device obtains state parameter relevant with virtual machine on each physical machine.
Step 303, the field management device is determined the target physical machine, and the virtual machine (vm) migration on the physical machine of source is arrived the target physical machine.
Can determine target physical machine sign to the appointment of target physical machine by receiving, also can be to determine the target physical machine according to described state parameter.Below describe the process of determining the target physical machine according to described state parameter in detail.
At first from all physical machine that the field management device is managed, select a part of physical machine as candidate's target physical machine in other physical machine except the physical machine of source.For example, management devices is positioned under the situation on the frame at the scene, selects a part as candidate's target physical machine in other physical machine from frame except the physical machine of source.Why to carry out the selection of candidate's target physical machine earlier, be because the target physical machine needs bigger calculating of consumption rate and storage resources when sink virtual machine, if the present load rate of a physical machine is too high, then be not suitable as the target physical machine on the principle.Can judge whether the present load rate of certain physical machine is lower than first threshold according to the state parameter that is obtained in the step 302.If the present load rate of certain physical machine is lower than first threshold, then with this physical machine as candidate's target physical machine.But because the physical machine load factor changes along with the time, so the present load rate is not to select the determinative of target physical machine.Under the less situation of the management devices physical machine of managing, can consider current physical machine load factor at the scene, other physical machine except that the physical machine of source are candidate's target physical machine in other words, and promptly this step is omissible.
After having determined candidate's target physical machine,, judge whether any candidate's target physical machine can provide abundant resource by any one virtual machine on the physical machine of source according to the state parameter that is obtained in the step 302.As mentioned above, state parameter comprises to virtual machine having distributed how many hardware resources.The field management device can determine to have distributed how many hardware resources for each virtual machine to be migrated on the physical machine of source by the state parameter from the source physical machine; The field management device can also determine how many hardware resources the virtual machine that has existed on current candidate's target physical machine has taken by the state parameter of certain candidate's target physical machine, thereby determines whether have abundant residue hardware resource to distribute to current virtual machine to be migrated on this candidate's target physical machine.If this candidate's target physical machine can provide enough hardware resources to this virtual machine, then with this candidate's target physical machine as the actual purpose physical machine, with this virtual machine (vm) migration to this target physical machine.
Under the bigger situation of candidate physical machine quantity, the field management device can take different strategies to optimize the migration of virtual machine.Such as, take all factors into consideration each virtual machine to be migrated and require occupied resource on the resource that takies and each candidate's target physical machine, allow migration finish equilibrium of resource occupation ratio on each target physical machine of back.Again such as, at first select candidate's target physical machine of occupied resource ratio minimum as the actual purpose physical machine, and migration virtual machine as much as possible is not enough distributed on the physical machine of source till any one remaining virtual machine up to remaining hardware resource on this target physical machine.
Step 304, the virtual machine on the physical machine of field management device indication source has moved and has finished, and can carry out hardware maintenance to the source physical machine.
Though illustrated and described some exemplary embodiments of the present invention, but it will be understood by those skilled in the art that, under the prerequisite that does not depart from principle of the present invention and spirit, can change these embodiments, scope of the present invention is limited by claims and equivalence transformation thereof.
