Abstract
To validate manual virtual machine migration, a placement controller receives a user request to manually migrate at least one virtual machine across physical machines. Based on criteria used by the placement controller for automatically selecting placement of virtual machines on the physical machines, it is determined whether the user-requested migration of the at least one virtual machine violates the criteria. In response to determining that the user-requested migration violates the criteria, a notification of the violation is provided.
