Abstract

Methods and systems may provide for detecting an event external to a plurality of virtual machines running on one or more physical machines and determining that the event corresponds to one or more error conditions associated with at least one particular virtual machine in the plurality of virtual machines. Additionally, an alert may be generated in response to at least one of the one or more error conditions. In one example, detecting the event includes detecting an emulated device interrupt associated with the at least one particular virtual machine.
