Abstract

See full text

Machines, systems and methods for managing resources allocated in a virtualized computing network are provided. The method comprises monitoring resource usage by a first host, wherein the first host, in addition to the first host's dedicated resources, has access to a first set of sharable resources, and wherein the second host, in addition to the second host's dedicated resources, has access to a second set of sharable resources; determining whether the second host has excess resource capacity in the second host's dedicated and sharable resources, in response to determining that resource usage of the first host in the first host's dedicated and sharable resources has exceeded a resource usage threshold; and reallocating one or more resources in the second set of sharable resources from the second host to the first host, in response to determining that the second host has excess resource capacity.
