“…6 shows the result of the STORD compare to a previous improved method of pre-copy which is memory compression (MECOM) by Jin [9]. From the data, if the rate of dirty page decreases, the performance gap between our approach and MECOM decreases.…”

Abstract:The conventional pre-copy method for live migration leads to redundant transmission of data transmitted. In addition, the migration efficiency decreases in the memory intensive environment where the memory is frequently modified because the modified memory data should do retransmission. Recently, these problems intensified because of growing complexity of computing environment such as Big-data and Cloud. In order to address these problems, we propose a method that is split transfer and omitting redundant dirty pages (STORD). We compared our approach with the conventional pre-copy method to evaluate the performance. In particular, we used a static bandwidth and generated a same size of dirty pages on split memory data for migration to show the effect of transferring the split memory. Simulation result showed that the proposed method saved the total migration time from 6% to 65% compared to pre-copy method. Also, when the environment has dirty page rate of 90%, our approach took less total migration time than MECOM which is the improvised method of pre-copy. Therefore, the proposed method is able to alleviate system performance degradation because our approach takes less migration time than previous method in Big-data or the multi-core environment.

“…In cold migration, first, VM is suspended, then its state is transferred, at last VM is resumed at destination host. a) Live VM Migration-Live migration [8] is a technology used for load balancing and optimization of VM deployment in data centers. With the help of live migration, VMs can be transferred to another node without shutting down.…”

“…Bolin Hu et al [7] also proposed an improved time-series based pre-copy approach for virtual machine migration. With the time-series prediction technique, they identified frequently updated dirty pages (high dirty pages) in the past and future period more precisely, and transmit them in the last round of iteration, in order to reduce unnecessary, repeated transmission of dirty pages.…”

Virtualization technology is currently becoming increasingly popular and valuable in cloud computing environments due to the benefits of server consolidation, live migration, and resource isolation. Live virtual machine migration is the process of moving virtual machine from one physical host to other without disturbing the users. Effective migration of virtual machine requires the movement of storage, memory, process states and network connectivity. Live migration of virtual machines has been a powerful tool to facilitate system maintenance, load balancing, fault tolerance, and powersaving, especially in clusters or data centers. During the process of migration, services are running in the virtual machines, hence it requires minimum total migration time, down time in order to avoid service degradation. This paper introduced discussion of various techniques for effective live virtual machine migration to reduce both downtime and total migration time. This paper also present the various scenarios, where the live migration of virtual machines can takes place.
