Abstract
A mechanism for managing virtual machines in a virtualization system is disclosed. A method of implementation of the disclosure includes receiving a request from a client system to route network traffic from a first network interface card (NIC) of a first host system to a virtual machine. A determination may be made as to whether network traffic to another virtual machine is routed through the first NIC of the first host system. A notification may be sent to the client system indicating that the network traffic to the other virtual machine is routed through the first NIC and identifying a second NIC of a second host system that is available. The second NIC may be associated with the virtual machine to route network traffic from the second NIC to the virtual machine.
