Abstract

Methods and systems for generating a placement plan for one or more virtual machines (VMs) in a computing environment are provided. The method comprises providing, to a computing system, input parameters comprising a current placement for the one or more VMs on one or more hosts in a computing network; a target placement that assigns at least one of the one or more VMs to at least another host in said one or more hosts; and a set of constraints with which both the current placement and the target placement comply.
