Abstract
In one embodiment, for each of the nodes forming a cluster that share a cluster shared volume (CSV), a remote connection is established with an operating system (OS) management interface of an operating system of the node to query and to obtain OS configuration information concerning a VMM hosting one or more virtual machine (VMs) within the node. A remote connection is established with a VMM interface of the VMM of the node to query and to obtain VM information concerning each of the VMs hosted by the VMM in the node. An analysis is performed on the OS configuration information and the VM information in view of a set of management rules. A report is generated based on the analysis, the report including information indicating which of the management rules has been violated.
