Design of architecture for monitoring virtual machine parameters

摘要

Virtualization technology is being used widely into all computing and storage datacenters. These datacenters use hypervisor and VMs as their foundation. To monitor them it is required to understand what activities are going on inside them. To monitor the virtualization stack is a very challenging task and efficient automated tool is required for this purpose. The parameters of ESX hypervisor and Virtual Machines are to be monitored. The results of monitoring the Virtual Machines enable the user to easily understand what's occurring inside them. This reduces the deep analysis that needs to be done for the results obtained from traditional way of gathering information. The architecture designed presents the result in an efficient manner and is user-friendly.
