Abstract
A method includes receiving, into a target machine communicatively coupled to a first subnetwork, data for migration of a virtual partition from a source machine communicatively coupled to a second subnetwork. The virtual partition has a source network address defined by network addressing of the second subnetwork. The method includes initiating restart of the virtual partition on the target machine, wherein the initiating comprises determining a socket connection providing network communication between the virtual partition and a host and transmitting, through a network tunnel communication from the target machine to the host, a communication providing a target network address that is assigned to the virtual partition after the virtual partition is migrated to the target machine. The method includes routing a packet, from a process executing in the virtual partition of the target machine, to the host based on the virtual partition having the target network address.
