*[PoC]Workload balance using live migration*
*Description*
This strategy migrates a VM based on the VM workload of the hosts.
It makes decision to migrate a workload whenever a host's CPU
utilization % is higher than the specified threshold. The VM to
be moved should make the host close to average workload of all
hosts nodes.
*Requirements*
* Hardware: compute node should use the same physical CPUs
* Software: Ceilometer component ceilometer-agent-compute
running in each compute node, and Ceilometer API can
report such telemetry "cpu_util" successfully.
* You must have at least 2 physical compute nodes to run
this strategy.
*Limitations*
- This is a proof of concept that is not meant to be used in
production.
- We cannot forecast how many servers should be migrated.
This is the reason why we only plan a single virtual
machine migration at a time. So it's better to use this
algorithm with `CONTINUOUS` audits.
