US 2014/0373010 A1 · INTELLIGENT RESOURCE MANAGEMENT FOR VIRTUAL MACHINES

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for resource management for virtual machines. A computer receives information associated with one or more virtual machines, wherein the received information includes utilization information and workload information associated with each virtual machine of the one or more virtual machines. The computer analyzes the received information associated with the one or more virtual machines. The computer determines virtual machines for resource reallocation, wherein the determined virtual machines include one or more over-utilized virtual machines including at least one over-utilized resource. In another embodiment, the computer determines one or more under-utilized virtual machines, wherein the one or more under-utilized virtual machines include at least one under-utilized resource that corresponds to the determined one or more over-utilized resources. In another embodiment, the computer reallocates resources of the determined virtual machines for resource reallocation.
