Abstract
Systems and methods for automated monitoring and troubleshooting of unknown dependencies in a virtual infrastructure are disclosed. In particular, systems and methods disclosed herein enable automation of processes for detecting network errors for virtual machines residing on virtual infrastructures and retrieving network addresses and physical ports associated with the errors. Aspects of the technology use the IEEE MAC address of the virtual instance to triage the L2 connectivity to determine the physical port to which the virtual instance is attached and then automatically report the port to the network operator. The system also provides a method of saving virtual instances that are in a faulty state so that instances can be investigated further by automated monitoring tools.
