Embodiment Construction
[0029] The specific implementation manners of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0030] The problem solved by the invention is to realize the virtual machine disk with high performance and elastic capacity under the xen and kvm virtualization platforms. Achieved by:
[0031] (1) Use the sparse file mechanism to realize elastic capacity virtual machine disks:
[0032] A sparse file means that a lot of free space is left in the file for future insertion of data. If the free space is occupied by ASCII NULL characters, and the space is quite large, the file is called a sparse file and no corresponding disk blocks are allocated. When creating a virtual machine disk image file, the image file is defined as a sparse file. For example, when using the Linux dd tool to create a 50GB virtual machine image file (dd is a tool for Linux), the count is set to 0, and the seek value is set to It is a multiple of 5...
