Method for creating virtual machine in cloud computing system and cloud computing system

The invention relates to the technical field relevant to cloud computing, in particular to a method for creating a virtual machine in a cloud computing system and the cloud computing system, wherein the cloud computing system comprises a cloud control server, at least one node control server and at least one storage server, wherein the storage server is used for storing virtual machine benchmark image files of the virtual machine, user expansion image files and user disk image files; and the method comprises the following steps: the cloud control server receives a user request and forwards the user request to the node control server, wherein the user request comprises the virtual machine benchmark image selected by the user, cpu (central processing unit) and the memory size and the user disk image files; and the node control server receives the user request forwarded by the cloud control server and creates the virtual machine according to the user request. By means of the method for creating the virtual machine in the cloud computing system and the cloud computing system disclosed by the invention, the time cost and bandwidth resources for creating the virtual machine and the use of transport network bandwidth in migration of the virtual machine are reduced, and the problem of loss of user data, caused by system crash of the virtual machine, is avoided.

Method and apparatus for virtual machine live storage migration in heterogeneous storage environment

Embodiments pertain to live storage migration for virtual machines. Specific embodiments can implement the migration of VM disk images without service interruption to the running workload. Specific embodiments relate to storage migration between different disk arrays. Embodiments of the subject invention relate to a method and apparatus that can enhance the efficiency of virtual machine (VM) live storage migration in heterogeneous storage environments from a multi-dimensional perspective, e.g., user experience, device wearing, and / or manageability. Specific embodiments utilize one or more of the following: adaptive storage migration strategies, or techniques, such as 1) Low Redundancy (LR), which generates a reduced, and preferably the least, amount of redundant writes; 2) Source-based Low Redundancy (SLR), which can help keep a desirable balance between IO performance and write redundancy; and 3) Asynchronous IO Mirroring (AIO), which seeks high, and preferably the highest, IO performance. Specific embodiments adaptively mix one or more of these adaptive storage migration techniques during massive VM live storage migration.
