The project phases into sections describing VM migration and its types, the common techniques followed for VM migration and its issues pertaining to the same. Further on, we introduce the various tools mandatory for Live VM migration. These phase out into KVM, QEMU, Libvirt, VXLAN and Open vSwitch.
Finally we present our practical on various projects carried out during different semesters. We began with a Live VM Migration across the same subnet. Then moved on to live VM migration across different subnets using NAT and finally live VM migration across different subnets using bridged mode. Towards the end we provide a comparative analysis on the same.
This project provides a good pedestal to readers who wish to understand the concepts of VM migration specific to its applicability in data centers and also illustrates a detailed step by step procedure to conduct a Live VM migration across subnets using personal computers.
