Abstract
A system and method of selectively migrating at least one virtual machine to another physical machine is disclosed. Consumption information of a plurality of virtual machines and capacity information of a plurality of physical machines is retrieved. A first virtual machine to be potentially migrated is identified based on a consumption metric representing consumption of at least one resource dimension by the first virtual machine running on a first physical machine. A second physical machine to potentially accept migration of the first virtual machine is identified based on time window information, wherein an available capacity of the second physical machine is analyzed to determine if the first virtual machine's resource consumption exceeds the capacity of the second physical machine. The first virtual machine is migrated to the second physical machine if the first virtual machine's resource consumption does not exceed the available capacity of the second physical machine.
