1. Introduction
This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
(MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet
community. In particular, this specifies objects for managing
virtual machines controlled by a hypervisor (a.k.a. virtual machine
monitor). A hypervisor controls multiple virtual machines on a
single physical machine by allocating resources to each virtual
machine using virtualization technologies. Therefore, this MIB
module contains information on virtual machines and their resources
controlled by a hypervisor as well as information about a
hypervisor's hardware and software.
The design of this MIB module has been derived from product-specific
MIB modules -- namely, a MIB module for managing guests of the Xen
hypervisor [Xen], a MIB module for managing virtual machines
controlled by the VMware hypervisor [VMware], and a MIB module using
the libvirt programming interface [libvirt] to access different
hypervisors. However, this MIB module attempts to generalize the
managed objects to support other implementations of hypervisors.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
2. The Internet-Standard Management Framework
For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current
Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of
RFC 3410 [RFC3410].
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are generally
accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the
Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo specifies a MIB
module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58,
RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
[RFC2580].
3. Overview and Objectives
This document defines a portion of MIB for the management of virtual
machines controlled by a hypervisor. This MIB module consists of the
managed objects related to system and software information of a
hypervisor, the list of virtual machines controlled by the
hypervisor, and information of virtual resources allocated to virtual
machines by the hypervisor. This document specifies four specific
types of virtual resources that are common to many hypervisor
implementations: processors (CPUs), memory, network interfaces
(NICs), and storage devices. These managed objects are independent
of the families of hypervisors or operating systems running on
virtual machines.

Figure 1: An Example of a Virtualization Environment
On the common implementations of hypervisors, a hypervisor allocates
virtual resources from physical resources: virtual CPUs, virtual
memory, virtual storage devices, and virtual network interfaces to
virtual machines as shown in Figure 1. Since the virtual resources
allocated to virtual machines are managed by the hypervisor, the MIB
objects are managed at the hypervisor. In case that the objects are
accessed through the SNMP, an SNMP agent is launched at the
hypervisor to provide access to the objects.
The objects are managed from the viewpoint of the operators of
hypervisors, but not the operators of virtual machines; that is, the
objects do not take into account the actual resource utilization on
each virtual machine but rather the resource allocation from the
physical resources. For example, vmNetworkIfIndex indicates the
virtual interface associated with an interface of a virtual machine
at the hypervisor, and consequently, the 'in' and 'out' directions
denote 'from a virtual machine to the hypervisor' and 'from the
hypervisor to a virtual machine', respectively. Moreover,
vmStorageAllocatedSize denotes the size allocated by the hypervisor,
but not the size actually used by the operating system on the virtual
machine. This means that vmStorageDefinedSize and
vmStorageAllocatedSize do not take different values when the
vmStorageSourceType is 'block' or 'raw'.
The objectives of this document are the following: 1) this document
defines the MIB objects common to many hypervisors for the management
of virtual machines controlled by a hypervisor, and 2) this document
clarifies the relationship with other MIB modules for managing host
computers and network devices.
4. Structure of the VM-MIB Module
The MIB module is organized into a group of scalars and tables. The
scalars below 'vmHypervisor' provide basic information about the
hypervisor. The 'vmTable' lists the virtual machines (guests) that
are known to the hypervisor. The 'vmCpuTable' provides the mapping
table of virtual CPUs to virtual machines, including CPU time used by
each virtual CPU. The 'vmCpuAffinityTable' provides the affinity of
each virtual CPU to a physical CPU. The 'vmStorageTable' provides
the list of virtual storage devices and their mapping to virtual
machines. In case that an entry in the 'vmStorageTable' has a
corresponding parent physical storage device managed in
'vmStorageTable' of HOST-RESOURCES-MIB [RFC2790], the entry contains
a pointer 'vmStorageParent' to the physical storage device. The
'vmNetworkTable' provides the list of virtual network interfaces and
their mapping to virtual machines. Each entry in the
'vmNetworkTable' also provides a pointer 'vmNetworkIfIndex' to the
corresponding entry in the 'ifTable' of IF-MIB [RFC2863]. In case
that an entry in the 'vmNetworkTable' has a corresponding parent
physical network interface managed in the 'ifTable' of IF-MIB, the
entry contains a pointer 'vmNetworkParent' to the physical network
interface.

Figure 2: State Transition of a Virtual Machine
The 'vmAdminState' and 'vmOperState' textual conventions define an
administrative state and an operational state model for virtual
machines. Events causing transitions between major operational
states will cause the generation of notifications. Per virtual
machine (per-VM) notifications (vmRunning, vmShutdown, vmPaused,
vmSuspended, vmCrashed, vmDeleted) are generated if
vmPerVMNotificationsEnabled is true(1). Bulk notifications
(vmBulkRunning, vmBulkShutdown, vmBulkPaused, vmBulkSuspended,
vmBulkCrashed, vmBulkDeleted) are generated if
vmBulkNotificationsEnabled is true(1). The overview of the
transition of 'vmOperState' by the write access to 'vmAdminState' and
the notifications generated by the operational state changes are
illustrated in Figure 2. The detailed state transition is summarized
in Appendix A. Note that the notifications shown in this figure are
per-VM notifications. In the case of Bulk notifications, the prefix
'vm' is replaced with 'vmBulk'.
The bulk notification mechanism is designed to reduce the number of
notifications that are trapped by an SNMP manager. This is because
the number of virtual machines managed by a bunch of hypervisors in a
data center possibly becomes several thousands or more, and
consequently, many notifications could be trapped if these virtual
machines frequently change their administrative state. The per-VM
notifications carry more detailed information, but the scalability is
a problem. The notification filtering mechanism described in
Section 6 of RFC 3413 [RFC3413] is used by the management
applications to control the notifications.
5. Relationship to Other MIB Modules
The HOST-RESOURCES-MIB [RFC2790] defines the MIB objects for managing
host systems. On systems implementing the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB, the
objects of HOST-RESOURCES-MIB indicate resources of a hypervisor.
Some objects of HOST-RESOURCES-MIB are used to indicate physical
resources through indexes. On systems implementing
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB, the 'vmCpuPhysIndex' points to the processor's
'hrDeviceIndex' in the 'hrProcessorTable'. The 'vmStorageParent'
also points to the storage device's 'hrStorageIndex' in the
'hrStorageTable'.
The IF-MIB [RFC2863] defines the MIB objects for managing network
interfaces. Both physical and virtual network interfaces are
required to be contained in the 'ifTable' of IF-MIB. The virtual
network interfaces in the 'ifTable' of IF-MIB are pointed from the
'vmNetworkTable' defined in this document through a pointer
'vmNetworkIfIndex'. In case that an entry in the 'vmNetworkTable'
has a corresponding parent physical network interface managed in the
'ifTable' of IF-MIB, the entry contains a pointer 'vmNetworkParent'
to the physical network interface.
The objects related to virtual switches are not included in the MIB
module defined in this document though virtual switches MAY be placed
on a hypervisor. This is because the virtual network interfaces are
the lowest abstraction of network resources allocated to a virtual
machine. Instead of including the objects related to virtual
switches, for example, IEEE8021-BRIDGE-MIB [IEEE8021-BRIDGE-MIB] and
IEEE8021-Q-BRIDGE-MIB [IEEE8021-Q-BRIDGE-MIB] could be used.
The other objects related to virtual machines such as management IP
addresses of a virtual machine are not included in this MIB module
because this MIB module defines the objects common to general
hypervisors, but they are specific to some hypervisors. They may be
included in the entLogicalTable of ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933].
The SNMPv2-MIB [RFC3418] provides an object 'sysObjectID' that
identifies the network management subsytem and an object 'sysUpTime'
that reports the uptime of the network management portion of the
system. The HOST-RESOURCES-MIB [RFC2790] provides an object
'hrSystemUptime' that reports the uptime of the host's operating
system. To complement these objects, the new 'vmHvUpTime' object
reports the time since the hypervisor was last re-initialized, and
the new 'vmHvObjectID' provides an identification of the hypervisor
software.

7. IANA Considerations
This document defines the first version of the IANA-maintained
IANA-STORAGE-MEDIA-TYPE-MIB module, which allows new storage media
types to be added to the enumeration in IANAStorageMediaType. An
Expert Review, as defined in RFC 5226 [RFC5226], is REQUIRED for each
modification.
The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned
OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry:
Descriptor OBJECT IDENTIFIER value
---------- -----------------------
vmMIB { mib-2 236 }
ianaStorageMediaTypeMIB { mib-2 237 }
8. Security Considerations
This MIB module is typically implemented on the hypervisor not inside
a virtual machine. Virtual machines, possibly under other
administrative domains, would not have access to this MIB as the SNMP
service would typically operate in a separate management network.
There are two objects defined in this MIB module,
vmPerVMNotificationsEnabled and vmBulkNotificationsEnabled, that have
a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write. Enabling notifications can lead
to a substantial number of notifications if many virtual machines
change their state concurrently. Hence, such objects may be
considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The
support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper
protection can have a negative effect on the management system. It
is RECOMMENDED that these objects have access of read-only instead of
read-write on deployments where SNMPv3 strong security (i.e.,
authentication and encryption) is not used.
There are a number of managed objects in this MIB that may contain
sensitive information. The objects in the vmHvSoftware and
vmHvVersion list information about the hypervisor's software and
version. Some may wish not to disclose to others which software they
are running. Further, an inventory of the running software and
versions may be helpful to an attacker who hopes to exploit software
bugs in certain applications. Moreover, the objects in the vmTable,
vmCpuTable, vmCpuAffinityTable, vmStorageTable, and
vmNetworkTable list information about the virtual machines and their
virtual resource allocation. Some may wish not to disclose to others
how many and what virtual machines they are operating.
It is thus important to control even GET access to these objects and
possibly to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending
them over the network via SNMP. Not all versions of SNMP provide
features for such a secure environment.
SNMPv1 by itself is not a secure environment. Even if the network
itself is secure (for example by using IPsec), there is no control as
to who on the secure network is allowed to access and GET/SET
(read/change/create/delete) the objects in this MIB module.
It is recommended that the implementers consider using the security
features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use
of the User-based Security Model [RFC3414] and the View-based Access
Control Model [RFC3415] is recommended.
It is then a customer/user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP
entity giving access to an instance of this MIB is properly
configured to give access to the objects only to those principals
(users) that have legitimate rights to indeed GET or SET
(change/create/delete) them.
