FRAMEWORK AND METHOD FOR MONITORING PERFORMANCE OF VIRTUALIZED SYSTEMS BASED ON HARDWARE BASE TOOL

The disclosed invention involves a framework and method based on hardware base tool to monitor the performance of virtualized systems, wherein the said framework comprises at least one master host, and each of the said master host comprises user space components, guest space components, kernel space components and hardware. The said user space components comprise policy manager, workload mediator, monitor library, and host performance monitor. The said host performance monitor is connected to workload mediator, and host performance monitor comprises user space monitor and kernel space monitor. The disclosed invention applies PMU or the similar tools to monitor the performance of virtualized systems. The performance monitoring of the disclosed invention is to monitor CPU, memory, cache, IO, network, processes, etc. of the host of virtualized systems. Meanwhile, the method based on hardware to monitor performance in this disclosed invention resolves the problem to acquire performance data for virtualized systems.
