Determining optimal methods for creating virtual machines |
| 摘要 |
A computer receives at least one requirement for a new VM. The computer identifies an existing VM to be modified during the generation of the new VM. The computer determines at least one step necessary to create the new VM configuration from the existing VM. The computer presents at least one pathway to the new VM from the existing VM. The computer receives a selection of a presented pathway to create the new VM. |

1. A method for determining optimal pathways for creating a virtual machine (VM) with a given set of requirements, the method comprising:
a computer receiving at least one requirement for a new VM; a computer identifying an existing VM to be modified during the generation of the new VM; a computer determining at least one step necessary to create the new VM configuration from the existing VM; a computer presenting to a user pathways for creating the new VM from the existing VM, wherein the pathways include at least three of: a total time required to create the new VM, a number of steps required to create the new VM, the at least one step, a complexity of the at least one step, and a degree of difficulty of the at least one step; and a computer receiving a selection of a presented pathway to create the new VM. |
