VIRTUAL MACHINE JOINER

摘要

A method, system and computer readable medium for joining multiple virtual machines (VMs). The method includes identifying a first 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 incompatible. A new VM having a first new disk and a second new disk is created. The method includes creating a first image of a first disk associated with the first VM and a second image of a second disk associated with the second VM, installing the first image into the first new disk and the second image into the second new disk, and configuring the new VM to include a dual boot function enabling boot up of the new VM with either the first OS or the second OS.

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 different; creating, by a processing device, a new VM associated with a first new disk and a second new disk; creating, by the processing device, a first image of a first existing disk associated with the first VM and a second image of a second existing disk associated with the second VM; installing the first image into the first new disk and the second image into the second new disk; and configuring, by the processing device, the new VM to comprise a dual boot function enabling boot up of the new VM with either the first OS or the second OS.
