  • SYSTEM AND METHOD OF VERIFYING PROVISIONED VIRTUAL SERVICES
    Publication number: 20160378816
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to various systems, methods, architectures, mechanisms, or apparatuses for verifying or auditing that virtual services are correctly instantiated at a data center. Verification that virtual services are correctly instantiated at a data center may include comparing normalized datasets representing the actual instantiated services associated with a virtual services provisioning entity to normalized datasets representing the expected instantiated services associated with the provisioning entity.

  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING DATA CENTER SERVICES
    Publication number: 20150172130
    Abstract: Systems, methods, architectures, mechanisms or apparatus to confirm reachability of data center virtual machines and virtual/nonvirtual entities necessary to support the virtual machines. State information associated with virtual machines and necessary supporting entities may retrieved and correlated with respective alarms/warnings to determine whether the respective alarms/warnings are consistent with the state information such that no further processing is necessary.

  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING DATA CENTER SERVICES
    Publication number: 20150169353
    Abstract: Systems, methods, architectures, mechanisms or apparatus to manage virtual and nonvirtual elements in a data center (DC) by correlating necessarily supporting virtual and nonvirtual DC elements, such as the virtual and nonvirtual DC elements necessary to support a VM, a virtual port attaching the VM to an L2 service, a hypervisor supporting the L2 service, an L3 attachment point supporting the L2 service and the L3 service to which the L2 services attached.
