Abstract

Disclosed are various examples of lifecycle and recovery management for virtualized data processing unit (DPU) management operating systems. A DPU device executes a DPU management hypervisor that communicates with a management service over a network. The DPU management hypervisor virtualizes DPU hardware resources and passes control of the virtualized DPU hardware resources to a DPU management operating system (OS) virtual machine (VM). The DPU management hypervisor maintains control of a management network interface card (NIC) of the DPU device.
