Systems and methods of java virtual machine management

A method for managing virtual machines, the method comprising:

• querying, by a computer, a dependency map associated with a first virtual machine based on a request to perform a first action on the first virtual machine, the dependency map indicating a set of one or more dependent virtual machines that are dependent on the first virtual machine, wherein the dependency map includes at least one dependent virtual machine prohibited from receiving a request to perform a second action;
• determining, by the computer, an action queue to perform the second action for each of the one or more dependent virtual machines prohibited from receiving the request according to the dependency map;
• issuing, by the computer, a command to perform the first action to the one or more dependent virtual machines in a sequential ordering based on the dependency map, wherein the sequential ordering is determined according to a relationship of the one or more dependent virtual machines and the first virtual machine;
• and
• in response to the first virtual machine performing the first action:
• issuing, by the computer, the request to perform the second action to the at least one prohibited dependent virtual machines based on the action queue.
