[0030] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] It should be noted that the virtual machine checkpoint operation method provided in the present application is generally executed by a computer device, and accordingly, the virtual machine checkpoint operation device is generally set in the computer device.

[0032] Figure 1 An exemplary system architecture that can be applied to the virtual machine checkpoint operation method or virtual machine checkpoint operation device of the present application is shown.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the system architecture may include: a computer device 101, a host 102 and a host 103. The computer device 101, the host 102 and the host 103 may communicate with each other through a network, and the network is used as a medium for providing a communication link between the above-mentioned units. The network may include various types of wired communication links or wireless communication links, for example: a wired communication link includes an optical fiber, a twisted pair or a coaxial cable, etc., and a wireless communication link includes a Bluetooth communication link, a wireless fidelity (WIreless-FIdelity, Wi-Fi) communication link or a microwave communication link, etc.

[0034] Among them, virtual machines are deployed in the host 102 and the host 103, and the host 102 and the host 103 use different virtual machine management platforms to manage the deployed virtual machines. For example, the host 102 uses the Windows virtual machine management platform to manage one or more deployed virtual machines, and the host 103 uses the VMware virtual machine management platform to manage one or more deployed virtual machines. A checkpoint operation application is installed on the computer device 102, and the checkpoint query, creation, deletion and restoration operations are performed on the virtual machines on the host 102 and the host 103 through the application.

[0035] It should be noted that the host 102 and the host 103 of the present application are hardware, which can also be called physical machines, and can be implemented as a distributed host cluster consisting of multiple hosts, or as a single host.

[0036] Various communication client applications can be installed on the computer device of the present application, such as: video recording applications, video playback applications, voice interaction applications, search applications, instant messaging tools, email clients, social platform software, etc.

[0037] The computer device may be hardware or software. When the computer device is hardware, it may be various computer devices with a display screen, including but not limited to smart phones, tablet computers, laptop computers, and desktop computers. When the computer device is software, it may be installed in the computer devices listed above. It may be implemented as multiple software or software modules (for example, to provide distributed services), or it may be implemented as a single software or software module, which is not specifically limited here.

[0038] When the computer device is hardware, a display device and a camera may be installed thereon. The display device may be any device capable of realizing a display function, and the camera is used to collect video streams; for example, the display device may be a cathode ray tube display (CR), a light-emitting diode display (LED), an electronic ink screen, a liquid crystal display (LCD), a plasma display panel (PDP), etc. The user may use the display device on the computer device to view displayed text, pictures, videos and other information.

[0039] It should be understood that Figure 1 The number of computer devices, networks and hosts in the embodiment is only for illustration. Any number of computer devices, networks and hosts may be used as required.

[0040] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 2 , the operation method of the virtual machine checkpoint provided in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail. Among them, the operation device of the virtual machine checkpoint in the embodiment of the present application can be Figure 1 Computer equipment shown.

[0041] See also Figure 2 , is a flowchart of a method for operating a virtual machine checkpoint according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the method of the embodiment of the present application may include the following steps:

[0042] S201, displaying a checkpoint operation interface.

[0043] After the computer device opens the checkpoint operation application, the display unit displays the checkpoint operation interface including: a virtual machine search area, an operation display area, and a checkpoint operation button; the virtual machine search area is used to input the virtual machine IP address, the virtual machine IP address is used to uniquely represent the network address of the virtual machine, and the virtual machines in each virtual machine management platform have different virtual machine IP addresses. The operation display area is used to display the operation results; the checkpoint operation button is used to perform checkpoint operations, such as: creating a new checkpoint, deleting a checkpoint, and restoring a checkpoint.

[0044] For example: Checkpoint operation interface Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the checkpoint operation interface includes a virtual machine retrieval area, an operation display area, a platform type display area, a checkpoint button, a restore checkpoint button, a new checkpoint button and a delete checkpoint button. The operation display area is located below the virtual machine retrieval area. The platform type display area is used to display the type of platform where the virtual machine is located. The checkpoint button is used to trigger the query of the virtual machine's checkpoint. The restore checkpoint button, the new checkpoint button and the delete checkpoint button are used to trigger the operations of restoring the virtual machine's checkpoint, creating a new virtual machine's checkpoint and deleting the virtual machine's checkpoint, respectively.

[0045] In one or more possible embodiments, before S201, the method further includes:

[0046] When receiving an opening instruction of the checkpoint operation application, obtaining the current version number of the checkpoint operation application and the latest version number on the FTP server;

[0047] If the latest version number is greater than the current version number;

[0048] Download the latest checkpointing application from the FTP server.

[0049] For example: when a computer device detects an instruction to open a checkpoint application, it obtains the current version number now_version of the checkpoint operation application, and then obtains the latest version number new_version on the FTP server. The version number can be represented by a number. The larger the version number, the newer the application. If the current version number is less than the latest version number, the latest checkpoint operation application is downloaded from the FTP server.

[0050] S202: Acquire the virtual machine IP address entered by the user in the virtual machine search area.

[0051] The user enters the virtual machine name in the virtual machine search area through an input device, which may be a keyboard, a mouse, or a touch screen. Furthermore, the IP addresses of various virtual machines are generally in the same network segment, that is, some of the numbers in the IP address are the same. To simplify the input, the user can only enter the different numbers in the IP address in the virtual machine search area, for example: Figure 3 In the checkpoint operation interface shown, the first two digits of the IP address are the same, the IP address of the virtual machine is 10.51.61.99, and the virtual machine IP address entered by the user in the virtual machine search area is the "6199" set. Figure 4 In the checkpoint operation interface shown, the IP address of the virtual machine is 10.51.75.10, and the IP address of the virtual machine entered by the user in the virtual machine search area is "7510".

[0052] S203: Query multiple virtual machine management platforms to see whether there is a target virtual machine indicated by the input virtual machine IP address.

[0053] Among them, the multiple virtual machine management platforms have different platform types, such as Windows virtual machine management platform or VMware virtual machine management platform. The virtual machine management platform deploys multiple virtual machines. The virtual machine management platform is also called a virtual machine manager, which is used to manage the virtual machines deployed on the host. The computer device traverses the multiple virtual machine management platforms to determine whether there is a target virtual machine indicated by the input virtual machine IP address.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present application, when multiple virtual machine management platforms are VMware virtual machine management platform and Windows virtual machine management platform, considering that the running speed of Python code in calling VMware virtual machine management platform operation is faster than that of Windows virtual machine management platform. First, the computer device uses the connect method in Python pyVim library to connect to the host of VMware virtual machine management platform through IP address, port, user name and password, obtains all virtual machine management objects ManagedObject on the host, and then obtains the name (ManagedObject.name) and virtual machine IP address of each virtual machine management object through a for loop and stores them in a list in Python, compares the virtual machine IP address entered by the user with each element in the list, and if an element in the list contains the virtual machine IP address entered by the user, assigns the virtual machine name to the value machine_name entered by the user and displays the platform name in the specified position of the checkpoint operation interface, and if the virtual machine IP address entered by the user does not exist in the list, continues to search in the Windows virtual machine management platform.

[0055] The retrieval method includes: the computer device calls the get_all_VM.psl powershell script through the python subprocess library (the subprocess library is mainly used to call the windows cmd command and receive the return value of the cmd command) to obtain the virtual machine IP address of each virtual machine in the Windows virtual management platform, uses the Get-VMMserver method provided by the Windows operating system to connect to the host through the host's IP and port through the get_all_VM.psl powershell script, and then obtains all virtual machine IP addresses through the get-vm.name method and stores them in a python list, compares the virtual machine IP address entered by the user with each element in the list, and if the element of the list contains the virtual machine IP address entered by the user, assigns the virtual machine name to the value machine_name entered by the user and displays the platform name at a specified position in the checkpoint operation interface.

[0056] Furthermore, if the target virtual machine indicated by the virtual machine IP address input by the user does not exist in any virtual machine platform, a prompt message indicating that the virtual machine does not exist or that an incorrect virtual machine IP address is input is fed back through a QMessageBox pop-up window.

[0057] S204: If yes, query the checkpoint in the virtual machine management platform corresponding to the target virtual machine to obtain the checkpoint query result.

[0058] When the target virtual machine indicated by the input virtual machine IP address exists in multiple virtual machine management platforms, a checkpoint is queried in the virtual machine platform where the target virtual machine is located. The checkpoint can also be called a snapshot. The checkpoint query result includes: name, creation time, modification time, and description.

[0059] The query process includes: when the platform type of the target virtual machine is identified, different methods are automatically called, and at this time, the virtual machine name machine_name has been obtained through the virtual machine IP address input by the user.

[0060] If the target virtual machine is under the Windows virtual machine management platform, the computer device uses the Python subprocess library (the subprocess library is mainly used to call the Windows cmd command and receive the return value of the cmd command) to call the get_allCheckpoint.psl PowerShell script to obtain the checkpoint list of the target virtual machine and then display it in QT5QListView (the get_allCheckpoint.psl PowerShell script uses the method Get-VMMserver provided by Microsoft to connect to the host through the host's IP and port, and then obtains the checkpoint name of the virtual machine through Get-VMCheckpoint-VM virtual machine name);.

[0061] If the target virtual machine is under the VMware Vsphere virtual machine management platform, use the Python pyVmomi library and pyVim library. First, the computer device uses the connect method in the pythonpyVim library to connect to the host through the VMware vSphere host ip, port, username, and password to obtain all virtual machine management objects Managed Object, and then compare each virtual machine management object name (ManagedObject.name) with the input virtual machine IP address through a for loop. If they are equal, the current virtual machine's managed object ManagedObject definition is obtained as vmobj, and then the method vmobj.snapshot.rootSnapshotList provided by vmobj is used to obtain all snapshot definitions of the target virtual machine as snapshots (type is a python dictionary). Snapshots contains the name, creation time, modification time, description and other information of each snapshot. Finally, the snapshot name snapshot.name of each snapshot is obtained through a for loop and then displayed in QT5 QListView.

[0062] S205: Display the checkpoint query result in the operation display area, and display the platform type in a designated area in the checkpoint operation interface.

[0063] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the checkpoint query result of the target virtual machine includes the creation date and creation time of each checkpoint.

[0064] S206: When a trigger instruction of the checkpoint operation button is detected, a corresponding checkpoint operation is performed on the target virtual machine.

[0065] Among them, the operation method of checkpoint / snapshot includes creation, deletion and restoration. The computer device realizes creation, deletion and restoration of checkpoints by clicking the option (checkpoint operation button) in QT5QListView (checkpoint operation interface). If the target virtual machine is under the Windows virtual machine management platform, the Python subprocess library is used to call the powershell script to return the execution value success or failure, and then the returned value is displayed in a QMessageBox pop-up window; if the target virtual machine is under the VMware Vsphere virtual machine management platform, the Python pyVmomi library and pyVim library are used to call different codes to realize the creation, deletion, restoration and other operations of the snapshot, and the defined value is returned and then displayed in a QMessageBox pop-up window.

[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, the new operation of the checkpoint / snapshot includes: if the target virtual machine is under the Windows virtual machine management platform, the Python subprocess library (the subprocess library is mainly used to call the Windows cmd command and receive the return value of the cmd command) is used to call the creat_newpoint.psl PowerShell script (the creat_newpoint.psl PowerShell script uses the method Get-VMMserver provided by Microsoft to connect to the host through the host's IP and port, and then creates a new restore point $Checkpoint through the New-VMCheckpoint method, $Checkpoint includes the name, time, virtual machine name, etc. of the restore point, and returns the virtual machine name, restore point name, and time from $Checkpoint, which is defined as $resultall), and the relevant information of the newly created checkpoint is returned and displayed in a QMessageBox pop-up window. If the target virtual machine is under the Vmware Vsphere platform, the Python pyVmomi library and the pyVim library are used. When obtaining the checkpoint name, the management object of the virtual machine has been obtained and defined as vmobj, and the method Createsnapshot provided by vmobj is used to create a new snapshot, and the returned result is defined as result, and finally the result information is displayed through a QMessageBox pop-up window.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present application, the checkpoint / snapshot deletion operation includes: if the target virtual machine is under the Windows virtual machine management platform, use the Python subprocess library (the subprocess library is mainly used to call the Windows cmd command and receive the return value of the cmd command) to call the delete_checkpoint.psl PowerShell script (the delete_checkpoint.psl PowerShell script uses the Microsoft method Get-VMMserver to connect to the host where the target virtual machine is located through the host's IP and port, obtains all checkpoint names $allcheckpoint, and then uses a Foreach loop to determine if the checkpoint name selected by the user is equal to one of the $allcheckpoints, then deletes the restore point through the Remove-VMCheckpoint-VMCheckpoint checkpoint name, returns the virtual machine name, the deleted restore point name, and the deletion time, which is defined as $resultall), and returns the relevant information of the deleted restore point to be displayed in a QMessageBox pop-up window. If the target virtual machine is under the VMware Vsphere platform, use the Python pyVmomi library and pyVim library. When obtaining the checkpoint name, the management object definition of the virtual machine has been obtained as vmobj. The management object collection of the snapshot is defined as snapshots through vmobj.snapshot.rootSnapshotList. Then use the for loop to obtain the management object definition of the snapshot whose target name is consistent with the snapshot name selected by the user as snap_obj. Finally, the snapshot is deleted through the snap_obj.RemoveSnapt_Task method. The returned result is defined as result. Finally, the result information is displayed through the QMessageBox pop-up window.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present application, the checkpoint / snapshot restore operation includes: if the virtual machine is under the Windows virtual machine management platform, use the Python subprocess library (the subprocess library is mainly used to call the Windows cmd command and receive the return value of the cmd command) to call the restore_checkpoint.psl PowerShell script (the restore_checkpoint.psl PowerShell script uses the Microsoft method Get-VMMserver to connect to the host through the host's IP and port, obtains all checkpoint names $allcheckpoint, and then uses the Foreach loop to determine if the checkpoint name selected by the user is equal to one of the $allcheckpoints, then restores the checkpoint through the Restore-VMCheckpoint-VMCheckpoint restore point name to return the virtual machine name, restore point name, and restore time, which are defined as $resultall), and returns the relevant information of the restore point to be displayed in a QMessageBox pop-up window; if the virtual machine is under the Vmware Vsphere platform, use the Python pyVmomi library and the pyVim library, and when obtaining the checkpoint name, use the Python pyVmomi library and the pyVim The library, when getting the checkpoint name, has already obtained the management object definition of the virtual machine as vmobj, and through vmobj.snapshot.rootSnapshotList to get the snapshot management object collection definition as snapshots, and then use the for loop to get the snapshot management object definition snap_obj whose target name is consistent with the snapshot name selected by the user, and finally delete the snapshot through the snap_obj.RevertSnapt_Task method, and return the result definition as result, and finally display the result information through the QMessageBox pop-up window.

[0069] Furthermore, for each button in the checkpoint operation interface, in the user motor button, the clicked button is highlighted and displayed in red font, and the other buttons are converted to black font. This allows the operator to clearly know the button he is currently clicking, and can also be used to reproduce the fault in time when the software fails.

[0070] The embodiment of the present application integrates the checkpoint operation process of multiple different virtual machine platforms through the operation point check interface. The user automatically identifies the platform type of the virtual machine through the virtual IP address search, and calls different methods according to different platform types to implement virtual machine checkpoint query, creation, deletion, restoration and other operations. In this way, the user does not need to open different virtual machine management platforms separately for operation, nor does he need to learn the operation methods of different virtual machine management platforms separately, which can reduce the efficiency of virtual machine checkpoint operation and reduce the learning cost.
