Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, device, and medium for uploading files to a virtual machine. Background Technology

[0002] Virtualization refers to the process of using virtualization technology to transform a single physical server (physical machine) into multiple logical servers (virtual machines). This allows users to run multiple virtual machines simultaneously on a single physical machine, each running a different operating system without interfering with the others. This significantly improves work efficiency and saves computing resources. Examples of virtualization technologies include KVM (Kernel-based virtual machine) and VMware (Virtual Machine software).

[0003] Users often need to transfer files from their local computer to the virtual machine when using virtualization management platforms. Currently, this is mostly done by configuring a network for the virtual machine and then transferring files via Windows operating system remote desktop or XFTP (a file transfer tool). The drawbacks of this method are that the stability of file transfer is closely related to network stability; an unstable network will affect file transfer, and configuring a network for the virtual machine also introduces certain security risks. Another method is to provide a shared folder, uploading relevant files to the shared folder via network protocols for access and use within the virtual machine. However, due to security concerns, this method is less commonly used. Furthermore, traditional methods sometimes require shutting down and restarting the virtual machine, making online file transfer impossible.

[0004] Therefore, improving the stability and security of file transfer while enabling online transmission to ensure uninterrupted user services during file uploads to virtual machines is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0017] Accordingly, the step of converting the format of the virtual disk according to the target parameters to obtain the target virtual disk includes:

[0018] Based on the first target parameter, the virtual disk in the copy-on-write format is converted into the virtual disk in the new technology file system format to obtain the target virtual disk;

[0019] Alternatively, receiving the target parameters sent by the virtualization management platform to indicate the operating system type of the target virtual machine includes:

[0022] The virtual disk in the raw format is converted into the virtual disk in the fourth-generation extended file system format according to the second target parameter to obtain the target virtual disk.

[0023] Optionally, before mounting the target block device to the target temporary directory corresponding to the target virtual machine, the method further includes:

[0024] Obtain the target temporary directory created by the virtualization management platform based on the identity number of the target virtual machine.

[0025] Optionally, after the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, mounting the current target block device to the target virtual machine includes:

[0026] After the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, it calls the target virtualization management tool to mount the target block device to the target virtual machine.

[0027] Secondly, this application discloses an apparatus for uploading files to a virtual machine, comprising:

[0028] The virtual disk acquisition module is used to acquire the virtual disk created by the virtualization management platform after receiving the target file uploaded by the user;

[0042] Figure 5 This is a structural diagram of an electronic device disclosed in this application. Detailed Implementation

[0043] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] There are two methods to transfer files from a local computer to a virtual machine. The first is to configure the virtual machine with a network and then transfer files via Windows Remote Desktop or XFTP. The drawback of this method is that the stability of file transfer is closely related to network stability; an unstable network will affect file transfer. Furthermore, configuring a network for the virtual machine introduces certain security risks. The second method is to provide a shared folder and upload relevant files to it via network protocols for access and use within the virtual machine. However, due to security concerns, this method is less commonly used. In addition, traditional methods sometimes require shutting down and restarting the virtual machine, making online file transfer impossible.

[0045] Furthermore, for the current mainstream hardware-assisted virtualization architecture, the CPU (Central Processing Unit / Processor) and memory devices are mainly simulated through the KVM kernel module, while IO (Input / Output) devices (such as network cards, disks, etc.) are simulated through QEMU (Quick EMUlator, virtual operating system emulator) technology. Based on this, QEMU-KVM technology (a server virtualization technology responsible for providing simulation of CPU, memory and various IO devices) has been formed, realizing server virtualization.

[0046] For each virtual machine, its physical manifestation is a QEMU-KVM process, and the virtual disks of the virtual machines can be managed through qemu-img (an open-source virtual machine disk management command that can manage the lifecycle of virtual disks). The upper-level virtualization management platform typically manages the underlying KVM virtual machines through an application programming interface (API), including operations related to virtual machine lifecycle management such as powering on / off, adding disks, and removing disks. Specifically, this is achieved through the virsh command (a virtualization management tool used to manage virtual machines and management programs in a virtualization environment). This is a user-space tool that runs entirely in command-line text mode, primarily used by administrators to automate virtualization deployment and management through scripts.

[0047] Based on the above principles, this application proposes a scheme for uploading files to a virtual machine, which can improve the stability and security of file transmission, and at the same time realize online transmission to ensure uninterrupted user services.

[0048] This application discloses a method for uploading files to a virtual machine; see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0049] Step S11: Obtain the virtual disk created by the virtualization management platform after receiving the target file uploaded by the user.

[0050] In this embodiment, the user logs into the virtualization management platform interface through a client, selects a file from their local computer, and uploads it to the corresponding window of the virtualization management platform. Specifically, after logging into the virtualization management platform interface, the user issues a file upload command. Upon receiving the file upload command, the virtualization management platform pops up an upload window, allowing the user to upload the target file to that window.

[0051] Furthermore, the virtualization management platform calls the Application Programming Interface (API) and creates a virtual disk at the underlying level based on the target virtual machine disk management command, namely the qemu-img command. The specific command is as follows:

[0052] qemu-img create-f qcow2 / raw disk_uuid 10G.

[0053] The virtual disk is formatted in two formats: copy-on-write (qcow2) and raw. The virtual disk is 10GB in size.

[0054] In this embodiment, the virtualization management platform obtains the virtual disk created by calling the application programming interface and based on the target virtual machine disk management command after receiving the target file uploaded by the user.

[0055] Step S12: Receive target parameters sent by the virtualization management platform to indicate the operating system type of the target virtual machine, and perform format conversion on the virtual disk according to the target parameters to obtain the target virtual disk.

[0056] In this embodiment, the virtualization management platform will synchronously transmit the operating system type of the target virtual machine as a target parameter to the underlying layer. The target parameter includes a first target parameter indicating that the operating system type of the target virtual machine is a Windows operating system and a second target parameter indicating that the operating system type of the target virtual machine is a Linux operating system.

[0057] In one specific implementation, the virtualization management platform sends the first target parameter; correspondingly, the step of converting the virtual disk format according to the target parameter to obtain the target virtual disk includes: converting the virtual disk under the copy-on-write format to the virtual disk under the new technology file system format (NTFS format) according to the first target parameter to obtain the target virtual disk. The specific command is: mkfs.ntfs disk_uuid.

[0058] In a second specific implementation, the second target parameter sent by the virtualization management platform is received; correspondingly, the step of converting the virtual disk format according to the target parameter to obtain the target virtual disk includes: converting the virtual disk in the raw format to the virtual disk in the fourth-generation extended file system format (ext4 file system) according to the second target parameter to obtain the target virtual disk. The specific command is: mkfs.ext4disk_uuid.

[0059] Step S13: Virtualize the target virtual disk as a target block device, and mount the target block device to the target temporary directory corresponding to the target virtual machine.

[0060] In the above embodiments, after formatting the virtual disk, a target virtual disk is obtained. In this embodiment, the target virtual disk is virtualized as a target block device so that it can be mounted on the target temporary directory in the form of a block device.

[0061] Step S14: After the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, the target block device is mounted to the target virtual machine.

[0062] It should be noted that the virtualization management platform first transfers the target file uploaded by the user to the temporary directory. Furthermore, in this embodiment, after the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, it mounts the target block device to the target virtual machine. In this way, the user can read the files inside the disk within the virtual machine.

[0063] Therefore, this application proposes a method for uploading a file to a virtual machine, comprising: obtaining a virtual disk created by a virtualization management platform after receiving a target file uploaded by a user; receiving target parameters sent by the virtualization management platform to indicate the operating system type of the target virtual machine, and converting the format of the virtual disk according to the target parameters to obtain a target virtual disk; virtualizing the target virtual disk as a target block device, and mounting the target block device to a target temporary directory corresponding to the target virtual machine; and mounting the target block device to the target virtual machine after the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory. In summary, the virtualization management platform in this application automatically creates a virtual disk after receiving the target file uploaded by the user. Then, this application converts the format of the virtual disk according to the operating system type of the target virtual machine so that the converted target virtual machine can be recognized by the corresponding operating system. Furthermore, this application virtualizes the target virtual machine as a target block device and mounts the target block device to the target directory corresponding to the target virtual machine. Finally, after the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, it mounts the current target block device to the target virtual machine to upload the target file to the target virtual machine. It can be seen that this application does not require pre-configuring the network for the virtual machine or restarting the virtual machine, which improves the stability and security of file transfer, ensures uninterrupted user services, and reduces the maintenance pressure on operation and maintenance personnel.

[0064] This application discloses a specific method for uploading files to a virtual machine. Compared to the previous embodiment, this embodiment further explains and optimizes the technical solution. See also... Figure 3 As shown, it specifically includes:

[0065] Step S21: Obtain the virtual disk created by the virtualization management platform after receiving the target file uploaded by the user.

[0066] Step S22: Receive target parameters sent by the virtualization management platform to indicate the operating system type of the target virtual machine, and perform format conversion on the virtual disk according to the target parameters to obtain the target virtual disk.

[0067] For more detailed procedures regarding steps S21 and S22, please refer to the aforementioned disclosed embodiments, which will not be elaborated upon here.

[0068] Step S23: Obtain the target temporary directory created by the virtualization management platform based on the identity number of the target virtual machine.

[0069] In this embodiment, the virtualization management platform creates a target temporary directory at the underlying level based on the virtual machine's identity document (ID), such as / tmp / virtual machine id, i.e.: mkdir / tmp / virtual machine uuid.

[0070] Step S24: Virtualize the target virtual disk as a target block device, and mount the target block device to the target temporary directory corresponding to the target virtual machine.

[0071] Furthermore, the target virtual disk is virtualized into a target block device, and the target block device is mounted to the target temporary directory, i.e., mount -o loop disk_uuid / tmp / virtual machine id.

[0072] Step S25: After the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, the target block device is mounted to the target virtual machine by calling the target virtualization management tool.

[0073] In this embodiment, the virtualization management platform transfers the target file uploaded by the user to the / tmp / virtual machine id directory on the physical machine. Furthermore, this embodiment adds the current block device to the target virtual machine online by calling the target virtualization management tool (virsh attach-disk).

[0074] In this way, users can see the target virtual disk as a vdx or sdx drive letter when they open the virtual machine console, without needing to format it. Furthermore, for Linux operating systems, the target virtual disk needs to be mounted to the appropriate directory using the `mount` command (used to mount files outside the Linux operating system), allowing access to the target files previously uploaded by the user on the virtualization management platform. For example, `mount / dev / vdb / mnt` will locate the target file under ` / mnt`.

[0075] This application proposes an optimized method for uploading target files from a virtualization management platform to a target virtual machine. Users access the virtualization management platform and perform related operations. The platform automatically calls the application programming interface to create a temporary virtual disk at the underlying level. After formatting the disk according to the virtual machine's operating system type, it is mounted as a regular block device to a temporary directory. Files uploaded by the user on the virtualization management platform are transferred to this temporary directory. Finally, the target virtualization management tool mounts the virtual disk online to the virtual machine, allowing the user to see the files within the virtual disk within the operating system. Furthermore, the disk files can be automatically removed and deleted after use. Therefore, this method provides a convenient and quick way for users to upload files from their local computer to the virtual machine without needing to configure the network for the virtual machine beforehand. It can be used during the debugging phase immediately after operating system installation, and the process does not require a virtual machine restart, minimizing the need for extensive operations within the operating system, thus reducing the operational burden and costs for maintenance personnel.

[0076] As can be seen, this application proposes a method for uploading a file to a virtual machine, comprising: obtaining a virtual disk created by a virtualization management platform after receiving a target file uploaded by a user; receiving target parameters sent by the virtualization management platform to indicate the operating system type of the target virtual machine, and converting the format of the virtual disk according to the target parameters to obtain a target virtual disk; obtaining a target temporary directory created by the virtualization management platform according to the identity number of the target virtual machine; virtualizing the target virtual disk as a target block device, and mounting the target block device to the target temporary directory corresponding to the target virtual machine; after the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, mounting the current target block device to the target virtual machine by calling a target virtualization management tool. In summary, the virtualization management platform in this application automatically creates a virtual disk after receiving the target file uploaded by the user. Then, this application converts the format of the virtual disk according to the operating system type of the target virtual machine so that the converted target virtual machine can be recognized by the corresponding operating system. Furthermore, this application virtualizes the target virtual machine as a target block device and mounts the target block device to the target directory corresponding to the target virtual machine. Finally, after the virtualization management platform transfers the target file to the target temporary directory, it mounts the current target block device to the target virtual machine to upload the target file to the target virtual machine. It can be seen that this application does not require pre-configuring the network for the virtual machine or restarting the virtual machine, which improves the stability and security of file transfer, ensures uninterrupted user services, and reduces the maintenance pressure on operation and maintenance personnel.
