Abstract

See full text

A technique for determining placement fitness for partitions under a hypervisor in a host computing system having non-uniform memory access (NUMA) nodes. In an embodiment, a partition resource specification is received from a partition score requester. The partition resource specification identifies a set of computing resources needed for a virtual machine partition to be created by a hypervisor in the host computing system. Resource availability within the NUMA nodes of the host computing system is assessed to determine possible partition placement options. A partition fitness score of a most suitable one of the partition placement options is calculated. The partition fitness score is reported to the partition score requester.
