Abstract
An example method of configuring a cluster network for an application management system having a cluster of virtual machines (VMs) is described. The VMs execute on a virtualization layer in a cluster of hosts connected to a physical network, the application management system integrated with the virtualization layer. The method includes: receiving, at a first master server, a request to assign network ports of the cluster network to control VMs of the VMs, the control VMs executing master servers of the application management system and having first network interfaces connected to a management network isolated from the cluster network; provisioning, by cooperation of the first master server with a network manager, the network ports of the cluster network; and reconfiguring, by cooperation of the first master server with a virtualization management server, the control VMs with second network interfaces connected to the network ports of the cluster network.
