Abstract
When a fault occurs in a guest machine 2b of a virtual machine system 100b, a stop control part 5a of a guest machine 2a of a virtual machine system 100a requests a stop control part 4b of a host machine 1b to stop operation of the guest machine 2b. If the guest machine 2b does not stop operation normally, the stop control part 5a requests a BMC 8b to stop operation of the host machine 1b. The BMC 8b stops the host machine 1b, so that the machine where the fault occurs can be stopped.
Claims9
A management apparatus that manages a host machine which is included in a virtual machine system and a guest machine which operates by utilizing the host machine, the management apparatus comprising:
- a guest stop instruction part that transmits to the virtual machine system a guest stop instruction instructing to stop operation of the guest machine;
- and
- a host stop instruction part that determines whether or not the guest machine stops operation normally and, if it is determined that the guest machine does not stop operation normally, transmits to the virtual machine system a host stop instruction instructing to stop operation of the host machine.
A management method that manages, by a computer, a host machine which is included in a virtual machine system and a guest machine which operates by utilizing the host machine, the management method comprising:
- by the computer, transmitting to the virtual machine system a guest stop instruction instructing to stop operation of the guest machine;
- and
- by the computer, determining whether or not the guest machine stops operation normally and, if it is determined that the guest machine does not stop operation normally, transmitting to the virtual machine system a host stop instruction instructing to stop operation of the host machine.
A program comprising causing a computer that manages a host machine which is included in a virtual machine system and a guest machine which operates by utilizing the host machine, to execute
- a guest stop instruction process of transmitting to the virtual machine system a guest stop instruction instructing to stop operation of the guest machine, and
- a host stop instruction process of determining whether or not the guest machine stops operation normally and, if it is determined that the guest machine does not stop operation normally, transmitting to the virtual machine system a host stop instruction instructing to stop operation of the host machine.
