Abstract
A method, system, and/or computer program product runs a virtual appliance in a distributed computing system. One or more predefined parameters, indicative of respective operating characteristics of the virtual appliance while running, are monitored. Time dependent values of the one or more predefined parameters are collected during the monitoring time period. For each of the one or more predefined parameters, a metric value from the time-dependent values of the parameter is derived. The metric values are evaluated, based on the constraints. In response to a determination that at least one metric value is violating at least part of the constraints, a second set of resources is allocated to the virtual appliance and a second set of virtual machines are determined for deploying the virtual appliance, in order to satisfy the constraints.
