Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method, system and computer readable medium for joining multiple virtual machines (VMs). The method includes identifying a first virtual machine (VM) executing a first operating system (OS) for joining with a second VM executing a second OS, wherein the first OS and the second OS are compatible. A new VM having a new disk is created, wherein the new disk includes the contents of a first existing disk of the first VM and a second existing disk of the second VM.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: identifying a first virtual machine (VM) executing a first operating system (OS) for joining with a second VM executing a second OS, wherein the first OS and the second OS are compatible; and creating, by a processing device, a new VM associated with a new disk comprising contents of a first existing disk of the first VM and a second existing disk of the second VM. 2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:…
