This document discusses different techniques for virtual machine migration. It begins with an introduction to virtualization and how virtual machine migration involves copying a VM from one physical machine to another. There are three main categories of migration techniques: fault tolerant techniques which migrate VMs to prevent failures, load balancing techniques which distribute load across servers, and energy efficient techniques which optimize resource utilization to conserve energy. Live VM migration is described as migrating the entire OS and applications between physical machines without disrupting applications. The document also covers background details on virtual machine migration methods being either hot/live where the VM continues running, or cold/non-live where the VM status is lost during migration.

- 3. INTRODUCTION ▪ Virtualization, a technique to run several operating systems simultaneously on one physical server. ▪ Migration describes the process of copying aVM from one physical machine to another physical machine. ▪ It provides special benefit to server virtualization and has become a powerful tool for a variety of scenarios. ▪ Some of these include: – Power management – IT maintenance – Load balancing
- 4. DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF MIGRATION TECHNIQUES ▪ LiveVirtual machine Migration is a technique that migrates the entire OS and its associated application from one physical machine to another. ▪ TheVirtual machines are migrated lively without disrupting the application running on it. ▪ The benefits of virtual machine migration include conservation of physical server energy, load balancing among the physical servers and failure tolerance in case of sudden failure.
- 5. DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF MIGRATION TECHNIQUES ▪ The different virtual machine migration techniques are as follows: – FaultTolerant MigrationTechniques – Load Balancing MigrationTechniques – Energy Efficient MigrationTechniques
- 6. Fault Tolerant Migration Techniques ▪ Fault tolerance allows the virtual machines to continue its job even any part of system fails. ▪ This technique migrates the virtual machine from one physical server to another physical server based upon the prediction of the failure occurred. ▪ Fault tolerant migration technique is to improve the availability of physical server and avoids performance degradation of applications.
- 7. Load Balancing Migration Techniques ▪ The Load balancing migration technique aims to distribute load across the physical servers to improve the scalability of physical servers in cloud environment. ▪ The Load balancing minimizing the – resource consumption – implementation of failover – enhancing scalability
- 8. Energy Efficient Migration Techniques ▪ The power consumption of Data center is mainly based on the utilization of the servers and their cooling systems. ▪ The servers typically need up to 70 percentage of their maximum power consumption even at their low utilization level. ▪ Therefore, there is a need for migration techniques that conserves the energy of servers by optimum resource utilization.
- 9. BACKGROUND ▪ Virtualization provides facility to migrate virtual machine from one host (source) to another physical host (destination). ▪ Virtual Machine Migration (VMM) is a useful tool for administrator of data center and clusters. ▪ It allows clean separation between hardware and software. ▪ Process level migration problems can be avoided by migrating a virtual machine.
- 10. Virtual Machine Migration methods ▪ Virtual Machine Migration methods are divided into two types: – Hot (live) migration – Cold (non-live) migration
- 11. BACKGROUND ▪ Virtual machine keeps running while migrating and does not lose its status. User doesn't feel any interruption in service in hot (live) migration. ▪ The status of theVM loses and user can notice the service interruption in cold migration In live migration process, the state of a virtual machine to migrate is transferred.The state consists of its memory contents and local file system. Local file system need not be transferred. First,VM is suspended, then its state is transferred, and lastly,VM is resumed at destination host.citeone
