    Abstract: Notification about Virtual Machine Live Migration to VNF Manager Various network systems may benefit from receiving notification about virtual live migration. For example, clustered telecommunication applications may benefit from live migration notifications of their virtual machines (VM). Such benefits may be achieved through technology known as Network Function Virtualization (NFV). According to certain embodiments, a method includes deciding that a virtual network function component should be moved from a first host to a second host. The method can also include notifying a virtual network function manager VNF about moving the virtual network function component. The method can further include moving the virtual network function component from the first host to the second host only when approval is received from the virtual network function manager. The method can also include notifying the virtual network function manager that the movement of the virtual network function component has been completed.
