Method and system for unified monitoring of physical machines and virtual machines in a multi-tenant environment

Abstract

The invention provides a physical machine and virtual machine unified monitoring method and system for a multi-tenant environment and belongs to the cloud computing technical field. With the monitoring method adopted, effective monitoring on virtual machines can be realized. The method includes the following steps that: a cloud platform provider creates mirror images for creating virtual machines in a cloud platform, monitoring agent plug-ins are installed in the mirror images; tenants create their own private network sections in the cloud platform, and create virtual machines by using the image mirrors; the virtual machines automatically contain the monitoring agent plug-ins; virtual machine acquisition servers are automatically generated on the private network sections; the tenants create virtual routers, the virtual routers add a route entry in a default manner, wherein the routing entry enables monitoring data collected by the virtual machine acquisition servers to be transmitted to a physical machine acquisition server, so that unified monitoring on the virtual machines and a physical machine by the physical machine acquisition server can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cloud computing, and in particular relates to a method and system for unified monitoring of physical machines and virtual machines in a cloud platform multi-tenant environment. Background technique [0002] At present, mainstream cloud platform systems, including OpenStack systems, provide virtual machine services externally by managing physical servers to form computing resource pools. The entire platform is generally divided into four types of networks, namely management network, data network, storage network and external network. [0003] The management network generally connects physical servers to provide communication between components in the cloud platform; the data network connects virtual machines to provide communication between virtual machines; the external network provides the ability for virtual machines to access the Internet; the storage network is used to store virtual machines shared f...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] In the cloud platform, the traditional physical server monitoring method is to run the monitoring agent plug-in (agent) in the physical server, and the monitoring agent plug-in (agent) regularly collects the monitoring information of the physical server and sends it to the collection server (Server side) to realize For the monitoring of physical servers, however, there is no effective method for monitoring virtual machines, and because the data network is isolated from the management network, even if the monitoring agent plug-in is running in the virtual machine, the monitoring agent plug-in cannot The monitoring information of the virtual machine is sent to the collection server, and the monitoring of the virtual machine cannot be realized
