    Abstract

    To support real time task in a virtual machine, hypervisor have to monitor system resource and provide exact resource for real time task. There are several monitor tools running on virtual machine, however, it has limitations on supporting detailed information for monitoring real time workload, performance degradation and difficult for controlling user interface. In this work, we proposed a resource monitoring and feedback tool for Xen virtual machine called XMM. XMM provides accurate resource monitoring in a hypervisor level without incurring much overhead. We also provide a GUI based control tool adjusting system resources based on user intervention, which can be useful in a multimedia system where user preference is important. XMM shows lots of information reflecting system behavior and it can give scheduling feedback for handling real time task. We believe XMM can be a useful tool for Xen virtual machine for various purposes.
