Abstract

A host controller is coupled to host computers that host virtual machines. At least one of the virtual machines is a highly available virtual machine. The host controller detects a change in system resources and identifies a highly available virtual machine that failed before the change occurs. The host controller re-runs the highly available virtual machine upon detection of the change of the system resources.
