Abstract

A method includes creating, by one or more computing devices, a first pool of memory resources from a plurality of memory resources in a cluster. The first pool comprises memory resources that (1) have been allocated to a respective guest virtual machine that is not currently being used and (2) that have been marked as unused by the respective guest virtual machine. The method also includes invoking, by the one or more computing devices, a number of operations on the memory resources in the first pool, wherein the number of operations is designed to signal a memory resource manager to reclaim the allocated memory resources that have been marked as unused from the first pool into an unallocated pool of memory resources in the cluster.
