First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- generating a list of virtual machines currently operating in a network;
surveying the virtual machines to determine their current resource usage data;
ranking the virtual machines based on their current resource usage data to indicate available resources of the virtual machines; and
assigning the virtual machines to at least one business application service group (BASG) that requires the available resources of the virtual machines.

Abstract
Virtual machine resources may be monitored for optimal allocation. One example method may include generating a list of virtual machines operating in a network and surveying the virtual machines to determine their current resource usage data. The method may also include ranking the virtual machines based on their current resource usage data to indicate available resources of the virtual machines, and assigning the virtual machines to at least one business application service group (BASG) that requires the available resources of the virtual machines.

8. An apparatus comprising:
-
a memory to store a list of virtual machines currently operating in a network; and a processor, coupled to the memory, to generate the list of the virtual machines currently operating in the network, store the list in the memory, survey the virtual machines to determine their current resource usage data, rank the virtual machines based on their current resource usage data to indicate available resources of the virtual machines, and assign the virtual machines to at least one business application service group (BASG) that requires the available resources of the virtual machines. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
