Secure booting of virtualization managers

A multi-phase boot operation of a virtualization manager at a virtualization host is initiated at an offload card. In a first phase of the boot, a security key stored in a tamper-resistant location of the offload card is used. In a second phase, firmware programs are measured using a security module...

description A multi-phase boot operation of a virtualization manager at a virtualization host is initiated at an offload card. In a first phase of the boot, a security key stored in a tamper-resistant location of the offload card is used. In a second phase, firmware programs are measured using a security module, and a first version of a virtualization coordinator is instantiated at the offload card. The first version of the virtualization coordinator obtains a different version of the virtualization coordinator and launches the different version at the offload card. Other components of the virtualization manager (such as various hypervisor components that do not run at the offload card) are launched by the different version of the virtualization controller.
