Hypervisor remedial action for a virtual machine in response to an error message from the virtual machine

Abstract

Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a hypervisor receiving an error message from an agent within a first virtual machine run by the hypervisor. In response to the error message, the hypervisor determines and initiates a corrective action for the hypervisor to take in response to the error message. An exemplary corrective action includes initiating a reset of the first virtual machine or a reset of a second virtual machine.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A computer-implemented method, comprising:
 receiving, by a hypervisor, an error message from an agent within a first virtual machine running on the hypervisor;   determining, by the hypervisor, a corrective action for the hypervisor to take in response to the error message; and   initiating, by the hypervisor, the corrective action with respect to the first virtual machine or a second virtual machine in response to the error message.
