Abstract: A non-disruptive cancellation of a migration-based virtual machine (VM) upgrade uses a network swap workflow and may be performed without user involvement (e.g., without providing login credentials). A source machine and a target machine swap machine identities such that, for example, the target machine takes on the internet protocol (IP) address of the source machine and the source machine takes on the original IP address of the target machine. Upon a cancellation of the upgrade, the source machine and the target machine revert to their original machine identities, for example, by swapping machine identities again. In this manner, the target machine assumes the role of the source machine for the user if the upgrade is not canceled, and the source machine rapidly resumes its role for the user if there is a cancellation. Advantageously, fewer computing resources are required for this cancellation.

Abstract: One or more embodiments provide techniques for querying a database having information contained therein that is associated with one or more virtual machines executing on a host. A management agent receives a query in a first format from a user device, wherein the first format is not executable in the database. The management agent parses the query to identify one or more commands in the query. The management agent translates the query into a modified query that is executable in the database. The management agent references one or more pre-loaded properties associated with the database. The management agent executes the translated query against the database. The management agent returns results of the execution.
