    摘要: A technique for reconfiguring a virtual machine in a cloud computing environment is disclosed. A method implementation of the technique comprises receiving (S310) a reconfiguration request from an application (110) being executed on the virtual machine in the cloud computing environment, the reconfiguration request indicating a desired resource allocation for the virtual machine, sending (S312) a reconfiguration response to the application (110), the reconfiguration response including a reconfiguration offer indicating a possible resource allocation for the virtual machine, receiving (S316) a reconfiguration acknowledgement from the application (110) indicating acceptance of the reconfiguration offer, and triggering (S318) reconfiguration of the virtual machine so as to allocate resources to the virtual machine according to the accepted reconfiguration offer.
