Abstract:
Disclosed are aspects of virtual graphics processing unit (vGPU) scheduling-aware virtual machine migration. Graphics processing units (GPUs) that are compatible with a current virtual GPU (vGPU) profile for a virtual machine are identified. A scheduling policy matching order for a migration of the virtual machine is determined based on a current vGPU scheduling policy for the virtual machine. A destination GPU is selected based on a vGPU scheduling policy of the destination GPU being identified as a best available vGPU scheduling policy according to the scheduling policy matching order. The virtual machine is migrated to the destination GPU.
