Abstract
A system and method include assigning virtual machines (VMs) to any one of compute only (CO) and hyper converged (HC) nodes. The method includes identifying, by a management processor of a virtual computing system, input-output patterns for a plurality of virtual disks in the virtual computing system; ranking, by the management processor, the plurality of virtual machines according to the identified input-output patterns; assigning, by the management processor, the plurality of virtual machines to any one of CO and HC nodes that optimize performance of the virtual computing system; monitoring, by the management processor, performance of the plurality of virtual machines; and determining, by the management processor, a change in behavior of one of the plurality of virtual machines.
