These techniques require network packets go through additional layers of processing. These additional layers have introduced significant overheads. So it is important to understand performance implications of this additional processing on network processing (TCP/IP). Our goals in this paper are to measure network I/O performance in a Xen virtualized environment and to provide a detailed architectural characterization of network processing highlighting major sources of overheads and their impact. In this paper, we study two modes of I/O virtualizations: 1) running I/O service VM along with the guest on the same CPU, and 2) running I/O service VM on a separate CPU. We measure TCP/IP processing performance in these two modes and compare it to that of on the native Linux machine. Our measurements show that both Rx and Tx performance suffer by more than 50% in virtualized environment. We have noticed that pathlength has increased by 3 to 4 times than that of the native processing. Most of this overhead comes from the Xen VMM layer and Dom0 VM processing. Our data also shows that running the Dom0 VM on a separate CPU is more expensive than running both Dom0 and guest VM on the same CPU. We provide a detailed characterization of this additional processing which we hope will help the Xen community focus on right areas for optimization.","PeriodicalId":267821,"journal":{"name":"First International Workshop on Virtualization Technology in Distributed Computing (VTDC 2006)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116687487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since serial and parallel jobs conflict considerably, scheduling both types of jobs concurrently is a difficult task. Two major strategies are in common use: partitioning the cluster (thus avoiding the problem) and reservation combined with backfilling. Both have major drawbacks in overall performance, ease of use and fairness depending on the particular configuration, which can lead to heated debates between the users of the different types of jobs. In this paper, we introduce an approach to create dynamic virtual cluster partitions using para-virtualization techniques, to deal with the conflicts between parallel and serial jobs. The system dynamically adjusts to different types of job loads and offers easy and transparent use and configuration to both users and administrators, without resorting to complicated runtime prediction or backfilling algorithms. A proof-of-concept implementation based on the Sun Grid Engine scheduling system and Xen is presented.","PeriodicalId":267821,"journal":{"name":"First International Workshop on Virtualization Technology in Distributed Computing (VTDC 2006)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130444789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There have been a number of studies on migration of virtual computing environments based on virtual machine monitors (e.g., VMware) or language-level virtual machines (e.g., Java). However, migration systems based on a CPU emulator have not received much attention and their viability in a practical setting is not clear. In this paper, we describe Quasar, a virtual machine (VM) migration system implemented on top of the QEMU CPU emulator. Quasar can migrate a whole operating system between physical machines whose architectures are different (e.g., between an x86 machine and a PowerPC machine). Quasar provides a virtual networking facility, which allows migrating VMs to continue communication without disconnecting sockets for migration. Quasar also provides a staged migration function to reduce the downtime of migrating VMs. We have examined the viability of Quasar through experiments, in which Quasar was compared with Xen, SBUML, and UML. The experiments assessed the performance of virtual server hosting, the sizes of the files that represent VMs, and the amount of downtime for VM migration.","PeriodicalId":267821,"journal":{"name":"First International Workshop on Virtualization Technology in Distributed Computing (VTDC 2006)","volume":"47 22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128702779","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
