A delta file is created for the new virtual machine, wherein the delta file includes a base disk reference and a copied delta file. The new virtual machine is configured to read a base disk image from a snapshot of the master virtual machine. The new virtual machine is configured to write data to the copied delta file in the delta file. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20110131330 | COLLOCATING DESKTOP VIRTUAL MACHINES TO PROXIMITY OF THE USER - A plurality of master desktop images for a plurality of users are stored at a plurality of geographically diverse data centers. At a first one of the data centers, a virtual desktop is constructed for a remote client. The virtual desktop is constructed from a given one of the master desktop images at the first one of the data centers and an individualized delta image for a user associated with the remote client. When it is determined that the remote client is at a geographical location wherein the first one of the data centers is not the closest one of the data centers to the remote client, the virtual desktop for the remote client is reconstructed at a second, closest, one of the data centers. The virtual desktop is reconstructed from a given one of the master desktop images at the second one of the data centers and the individualized delta image for the user associated with the remote client. A copy of the individualized delta image is moved from the first one of the data centers to the second one of the data centers to facilitate reconstructing the virtual desktop. | 06-02-2011 |

| 20110197097 | INCREMENTAL PROBLEM DETERMINATION AND RESOLUTION IN CLOUD ENVIRONMENTS - Installation files are annotated, which annotations may trigger system snapshots to be taken at a plurality of points during the execution of the installation files and/or collected. During a test run, the generated snapshots are examined incrementally to determine whether the installation is success or failure at that point. Checkpoint snapshots are stored, and those indicating failure are recorded with description of the error and/or remediation that suggest how the errors may be resolved or fixed. During a production run, the annotated installation files may be executed and the checkpoint snapshots generated during the production run may be compared with those stored of the test run to incrementally identify and resolve potential problems in the production run. | 08-11-2011 |
