Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for customizing virtual machines includes retrieving a virtual machine image file from a library of virtual machine image files. A target virtual machine image file is created by making a copy of the retrieved virtual machine image file. A file size of the target virtual machine image file is increased. A partition size of a primary partition of the target virtual machine image file is increases. The target virtual machine image file is booted after the partition size of the primary partition thereof has been increased.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for customizing virtual machines, comprising: retrieving a virtual machine image file from a library of virtual machine image files, the retrieved virtual machine image file being configured to execute on a hypervisor of a first type; creating a target virtual machine image file by building a new virtual machine image file configured to execute on a hypervisor of a second type that is different than the first type, wherein creating the target virt…
