vMigrater

Effectively Mitigating I/O Inactivity in vCPU Scheduling

HOWTO

1. Install third part dependencies.
   • QEMU/KVM (VMM), please refer to https://www.qemu.org/download/#source and https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/HOWTO.
   • BCC (I/O tasks filter), please refer to https://github.com/iovisor/bcc
2. Build vMigrater.
   • cd vMIgrater/src
   • ./compile.sh
3. Run vMigrater.
   • Create several VMs.
   • Run computation intensive application (e.g., Spark) and I/O intensive application (e.g., HDFS) in each VM.
   • Start BCC to filter out I/O intensive tasks.
   • cd vMigrater/src; ./compile.sh; ./build/main <I/O_task_ID>
