Virtualization infrastructure element monitoring and policy control in a cloud environment using profiles

Abstract:

This disclosure describes techniques for monitoring, scheduling, and performance management for computing environments, such as virtualization infrastructures deployed within data centers. In one example, a method includes obtaining, by a policy controller, a first profile for an element of a virtualization infrastructure, the first profile comprising a first ruleset having one or more alarms; obtaining, by the policy controller, a second profile for a group of one or more elements including the element, the second profile comprising a second ruleset having one or more alarms; modifying, by the policy controller based at least on the element being a member of the group, the first profile to generate a modified first profile comprising the first ruleset and the second ruleset; and outputting, by the policy controller to a computing device, the modified first profile.
