Cloud Computing, being a delivery model is swiftly moving ahead by being adopted by small and large organization alike. This new model opens up many research challenges. As, cloud computing services are offered over the Internet on pay-per-use basis, it is very essential to provide fault tolerant services to the users. To ensure high availability, data centers are replicated. The process of replication is costly but in terms reliability it overtakes the cost factors. Vast amount of work has been undertaken in fault tolerance in other computing environments but they cannot be applied directly to the cloud. This gives an opportunity for new, effective solutions. In this paper, we propose policies for delivering fault tolerant services for private cloud computing environment related to virtual machine allocations. The experimental test results and policies derived are described with respect to virtual machine provisioning.

Cloud computing systems consist of a pool of Virtual Machines (VMs), which are installed physically on the provider's set up. The main aim of the VMs is to offer the service to the end users. With the current increasing demand for the cloud VMs, there is always a huge requirement to secure the cloud systems. To keep these cloud systems secured, they need a continuous and a proper monitoring. For the purpose of monitoring, several algorithms are available with FVMs. FVM is a forensic virtual machine which monitors the threats among the VMs. Our formulated algorithm runs on FVM. In this paper, we formulate the Random-Start-Round-Robin algorithm for monitoring inside FVM.
