Abstract
Provided is a method for managing a cloud server by using a manager server in a cloud environment, the method including receiving server template information of a first cloud server in a cloud domain, to which the manager server pertains, from the first cloud server, generating server setting information for a cloud server in the cloud domain based on the server template information of the first cloud server, and transmitting the server setting information for the cloud server to the first cloud server to drive the first cloud server.
Claims18
A method for managing one or more cloud servers by using a manager server in a cloud environment, the method comprising:
- receiving server template information of a first cloud server in a cloud domain, to which the manager server pertains, from the first cloud server;
- generating server setting information for the first cloud server in the cloud domain based on the server template information of the first cloud server;
- and
- transmitting the server setting information for the first cloud server to the first cloud server to drive the first cloud server,
- wherein the manager server has static IP address information in the cloud domain,
- wherein when the first cloud server is booted for the first time to be newly scaled out in the cloud domain, a server image including a library file and an execution file that are necessary for driving the first cloud server is used,
- wherein the first cloud server is driven by a specific machine, the first cloud server not knowing an IP address thereof before the specific machine is driven, wherein the first cloud server is connected to the cloud domain during the booting of the first cloud and the IP address is dynamically allocated to the first cloud server during the booting,
- wherein the first cloud server transmits at least one of the server template information of the first cloud server and information of the dynamically allocated IP address of the first cloud server to the manager server based on the static IP address information of the manager server.
A manager server configured to manage a cloud server in a cloud environment, the manager server comprising a processor configured to:
- receive server template information of a first cloud server in a cloud domain, to which the manager server pertains, from the first cloud server to generate server setting information for the first cloud server in the cloud domain based on the server template information of the first cloud server;
- and
- transmit the server setting information for the first cloud server to the first cloud server to drive the first cloud server,
- wherein the manager server has static IP address information in the cloud domain,
- wherein when the first cloud server is booted for the first time to be newly scaled out in the cloud domain, a server image including a library file and an execution file that are necessary for driving the first cloud server is used,
- wherein the first cloud server is driven by a specific machine, the first cloud server not knowing an IP address thereof before the specific machine is driven, wherein the first cloud server is connected to the cloud domain during the booting of the first cloud and the IP address is dynamically allocated to the first cloud server during the booting,
- wherein the first cloud server transmits at least one of the server template information of the first cloud server and information of the dynamically allocated IP address of the first cloud server to the manager server based on the static IP address information of the manager server.
A cloud apparatus configured to manage one or more cloud servers in a cloud environment, the cloud apparatus comprising:
- a first cloud server pertaining to a cloud domain, to which a manager server pertains, and configured to transmit server template information that indicates a server template to the manager server;
- and
- a manager server configured to generate server setting information for the first cloud server in the cloud domain based on the server template information received from the first cloud server, and to transmit the server setting information for the first cloud server to the first cloud server to drive the first cloud server,
- wherein the manager server has static IP address information in the cloud domain,
- wherein when the first cloud server is booted for the first time to be newly scaled out in the cloud domain, a server image including a library file and an execution file that are necessary for driving the first cloud server is used,
- wherein the first cloud server is driven by a specific machine, the first cloud server not knowing an IP address thereof before the specific machine is driven, wherein the first cloud server is connected to the cloud domain during the booting of the first cloud and the IP address is dynamically allocated to the first cloud server during the booting,
- wherein the first cloud server transmits at least one of the server template information of the first cloud server and information of the dynamically allocated IP address of the first cloud server to the manager server based on the static IP address information of the manager server.
