APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ADAPTATION OF INPUT/OUTPUT INTERFACE IN VIRTUALIZATION ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising a host system configured to adapt an input/output interface, whereinin response a guest system having an input/output unit capability migrating to the apparatus having the host system which controls at least one input/output unit,the host system adapts an input/output interface of the guest system to the input/output unit capability of the host system desired by the guest system so as to provide a service supported by the input/output unit capability of the guest system using the at least one input/output unit of the host system.

10. A method for adapting an input/output interface of a guest system to an input/output interface desired by a guest system, wherein the host system controls at least one input/output unit and the guest system desires to use the at least one input/output unit through the host system, the method comprising:
-
in response to the guest system migrating to an apparatus having the host system, adapting the input/output interface of the guest system to the input/output unit of the host system desired by the guest system; and providing a service supported by an input/output unit supporting the input/output unit capability of the guest system, through the at least one input/output unit controlled by the host system. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
