The comparison of Virtual Machine Migration Performance between XEN-HVM, XEN-PV, Open-VZ, KVM-FV, KVMPV

Abstract

Based on our previous experience we want to compare the performance between five hypervisors: XEN-PV, XENHVM,Open-VZ,KVM-FV,KVM-PV We have simulated the migration of a virtual machine by using a warning failure approach. Based on some experiments we have compared CPU Consumption, Memory Utilization, Total Migration Time and Downtime. We have also tested the hypervisor’s performance by changing the packet’s size from 1500 byte to 32 byte. From these tests we have concluded that Open-VZ has a bigger CPU Consumption than XEN-PV, but the Total Migration time is smaller than in XEN-PV. XEN-HVM has a worse performance than XEN-PV, especially regarding to Downtime parameter.KVM-FV has the worse performance but it can improve by modifying it, so in this way we use KVM-PV which has approximately the same performance with Xen-HVM
