Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems and methods for live migration of a virtual machine are provided. A migration manager can send a request to a source host machine to migrate a virtual machine to a first destination host machine. The migration manager can determine that the migration of the virtual machine from the source host machine to the first destination host machine has failed. The migration manager can identify an intermediary storage device used during the migration to store a state of the virtual machine. The migration manager identifies a second destination host machine for the virtual machine migration. The migration manager causes the second destination host machine to obtain the state of the virtual machine from the intermediary storage device to migrate the virtual machine to the second destination host machine.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: sending, by a migration manager executed by a processing device, a request to a source host machine to migrate a virtual machine to a first destination host machine, wherein the migration is to store data associated with the virtual machine on a plurality of intermediary storage devices; determining that the migration of the virtual machine from the source host machine to the first destination host machine has failed after the virtual…
