摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide a capability to validate volume status on the host and storage system stored virtual machine image in the datacenter management server. In one embodiment, a server system includes a storage system having a plurality of volumes, a plurality of host systems, and a management server coupled with the storage system and the host systems via a network. A method of managing the server system comprises: generating a golden image in the storage system corresponding to a virtual machine image file; copying virtual machine data from the golden image to some of the plurality of volumes in the storage system; and keeping track, by the management server, of status of the volumes which have copied virtual machine data by monitoring activity of the virtual machines.

摘要:
A management computer for managing configuration of servers for connection to a switch comprises a port discovery module to: instruct a target server, for connection to a target switch port, to create a virtual adapter on a virtual switch associated with a physical NIC in the target server; obtain a list of VLAN IDs on all switch ports; select one or more VLAN IDs from the list based on a preset policy; set one such VLAN ID onto the virtual adapter; instruct the target server to manipulate the virtual adapter to send a packet with the set VLAN ID to the target switch port; if the switch accepted the packet sent to the target switch port, update a switch port mapping using the set VLAN ID as a discovered VLAN ID to map the physical NIC associated with the virtual adapter to the target switch port having the discovered VLAN ID.
