Method for monitoring use conditions of magnetic disk of virtual machine in host machine

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of cloud computation and particularly relates to a method for monitoring use conditions of a magnetic disk of a virtual machine in a host machine. The method comprises the following steps: mounting a mirror image document of the virtual machine on the host machine in a read-only manner; then checking the use conditions of the mirror image magnetic disk of the virtual machine in a manner of executing df-h so as to conveniently and uniformly monitor and manage resources of the virtual machine. According to the method provided by the invention, the use conditions of the magnetic disk of the virtual machine are monitored on the host machine; the method can be used for monitoring the use conditions of the magnetic disk of the virtual machine.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cloud computing, in particular to a method for monitoring the disk usage status of a virtual machine in a host machine. Background technique [0002] In the field of cloud computing, operating systems and applications run on virtual machines; when faced with multiple operating systems and many application software, and the application scenarios of providing services through free collocation between the two; the number of virtual machines that need to be created There will be more and more. Therefore, virtual machine resources, especially disk usage, have a great impact on the normal operation of the operating system and applications. However, in terms of monitoring virtual machine disk usage, there are currently the following problems: [0003] One is that the virtual machine image is changeable, which leads to the inflexibility of monitoring the virtual machine; the current virtual machine operation is...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] One is that the virtual machine image is changeable, which leads to the inflexibility of monitoring the virtual machine; the current virtual machine operation is derived from the virtual machine image, and the current virtual machine image expansion is not flexible. When an application software is added, it may need to be recreated with the operating system or The virtual machine image with the matching number of application software also brings inconvenience to the monitoring of the virtual machine

[0004] The second is to increase costs. Monitoring virtual machine resources requires corresponding development of monitoring tools or software for monitoring, which increases the company's technical investment costs; due to the large number of virtual machines, monitoring each virtual machine requires installing customized monitoring software for the virtual machine. This monitoring software requires investment in development

[0005] The third is that the virtual machine monitoring process is complicated. When monitoring the virtual machine disk, it is often necessary to manually log in to the virtual machine. After logging in to the virtual machine, manually use related commands to monitor the disk usage of the virtual machine. , Each virtual machine needs to be manually logged in for monitoring. While increasing the workload, it often loses sight of the other, and fails to monitor the resource status of the virtual machine disk and other resources in a convenient, fast and effective manner.
