METHODS AND APPARATUS TO PERFORM NETWORK FABRIC MIGRATION IN VIRTUALIZED SERVER SYSTEMS

Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to perform network fabric migration in virtualized servers are disclosed and described. An example apparatus a layer detector to determine a first network fabric layer of a communication network by sending a first probe packet from a first network resource to a second network resource via a communication link and determine to migrate the first network fabric layer to a second network fabric layer based on whether the first network resource receives a reply probe packet from the second network resource in response to the first probe packet. The example apparatus further includes a layer migrator to when the first network resource receives the reply probe packet from the second network resource in response to the first probe packet, migrate the first network fabric layer to a second network fabric layer based on configuring a remediation path and migrate the remediation path from the first network fabric layer to the second network fabric layer when the first network fabric layer migrates to the second network fabric layer.
