  • Patent number: 11966279
    Abstract: A method for managing specialized hardware resources includes obtaining, by a disaster recovery (DR) virtual resource agent, a request for a DR environment for a set of virtual resources in a primary site, in response to the request: monitoring the primary site to obtain virtual workload information corresponding to the set of virtual resources, performing a workload analysis on the set of virtual resources in the primary site using the virtual workload information to obtain a virtual resource mapping of each virtual resource in the primary site to a tiered component in the DR environment, and initiating a DR environment allocation of DR virtual resources based on the virtual resource mapping.

  • Publication number: 20230229520
    Abstract: A method for managing specialized hardware resources includes obtaining, by a multi-scheme virtual allocation agent, a request for allocating a plurality of virtual resources to the specialized hardware resources in an information handling system, wherein the request specifies a first scheme of allocation, wherein the information handling system operates in a second scheme of allocation that is different from the first scheme of allocation, in response to the request: installing a first virtual resource of the plurality of virtual resources on a first specialized hardware resource of the specialized hardware resources, performing a dummy virtual resource installation to install a plurality of dummy variables based on the second scheme, installing a second virtual resource of the plurality of virtual resources on a second specialized hardware resource of the specialized hardware resources based on the second scheme, and deleting the plurality of dummy virtual resources from the hardware resources.
