  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PATH-BASED MANAGEMENT OF VIRTUAL SERVERS IN STORAGE NETWORK ENVIRONMENTS
    Publication number: 20140019972
    Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing the service and performance levels associated with virtual machines in a storage network environment for compliance with a resource capacity policy are provided. Component configuration and connectivity information from components in the network environment is collected without using host agents on the virtual machines. Access paths defining end-to-end access relationships between an application on a virtual machine and storage data objects associated with the virtual machine in the network environment are derived. Access paths comprise sequences of components configured to enable information flow between an application residing on a virtual machine and a data object on a respective storage device. Access path resource consumption is computed and virtual machines with resource consumptions that violate the resource capacity policy are identified.
    Type: Application
