  • Live migration of virtual machines between compute only nodes and hyperconverged nodes
    Patent number: 10877791
    Abstract: A system and method include migrating virtual machines (VMs) between compute only (CO) and hyper converged (HC) nodes. The method includes identifying, by a management processor of a virtual computing system, a plurality of virtual machines hosted on compute only (CO) nodes in the virtual computing system. The management processor then identifies hyper converged (HC) nodes having virtual disks hosting data for the plurality of virtual machines hosted on CO nodes. When a virtual machine (VM) in the plurality of virtual machines is migrating, the management processor biases the VM to migrate to a first HC node hosting a virtual disk assigned to host data for the VM.

  • Live migration of virtual machine persistent data using mirrored input-output operations
    Patent number: 10289684
    Abstract: Persistent data, such as disks associated with virtual machines, are migrated between and across data stores using mirrored input-output operations (IOs). The migration technique employs a data mover to copy selected regions of the virtual machine disk to a target data store while the virtual machine is executing. If the virtual machine issues a write IO, the write IO is selectively mirrored on the target data store depending on whether or not the write IO is in a region of the virtual machine disk that has already been copied.
