Methods, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for network flow state preservation include migration of at least one application hosted on a first server device to a second server device coupled to a second traffic management device is detected at a first traffic management device. At least a portion of connection state information associated with a network connection between at least one client device and the application is communicated by the first traffic management device to the second traffic management device via a communication channel between the first and second traffic management devices. The application is provided by the first traffic management device to the at least one client device during the migration based upon the connection state information.

Methods for preserving flow state during virtual machine migration and devices thereof

A method and system for migrating content on a network. In one method embodiment, the present invention accesses a directory having a network address. A business rule is created and a directory is scripted based on the business rule. Next, a content switch automatically directs future access to the directory to a new environment based on the scripting, wherein the future access to the directory uses the same network address. In so doing, the migration of content on a network is greatly simplified.
