Abstract
A system and method include reconfiguring original configuration parameters of virtual objects when restoring the virtual objects on a different node. Snapshots of virtual objects running on a first node can be stored on a second node. Upon failure of the first node, the virtual objects can be restored on the second node based on the snapshots. The snapshots can include configuration information of the virtual objects specifying the resource need of the virtual objects. The second node can determine whether the available resources meet the resource needs of the virtual objects being restored. If the resource needs of the virtual objects exceed the available resources, the second node can reconfigure the original configuration parameters of the virtual objects to ensure the virtual objects can be restored and run on the second node.
