Abstract

Double Shadow Page Tables method based on Most Recently Used algorithm is presented to solve the low availability of output delay in virtual machine hot standby. This method uses check-pointing mechanism, the workflow of primary virtual machine is divided into two stages: running and synchronization stage. One of the two Shadow Page Tables is as the main table and the other is as the alternate table. During running stage of primary virtual machine, the main table is used to save the operation of the virtual machine, and then primary virtual machine uses the Most Recently Used algorithm to check out some pages and copies them in the alternate table. During synchronization stage, the previous main table realizes the synchronization of the two virtual machine s, and the previous alternate table is as the main table. Experimental results show that this method compared with the original method Remus has obvious advantages.
