Patent number: 10095532Abstract: A main operating system interface engine can be configured to receive instructions from a main operating system of one or more host systems and can manage a virtualized operating system on the one or more host systems, the virtualized operating system appearing distinct from the main operating system to a user of the one or more host systems. A virtualization environment management engine can manage a virtualization environment, the virtualization environment using the virtualized operating system. A virtual machine management engine can manage one or more virtual machine instances in the virtualization environment, each of the one or more virtual machine instances operative to provide virtualized resources of the one or more host systems for a compute access system coupled to the one or more host systems.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2015Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: Netkine, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Hiltgen, Patrick Devine, Erik P. Papp, Mustafa Jamil

Patent number: 9442714Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for a unified visualization of a plan of operations in a datacenter, a selection of a target from a plurality of targets in a datacenter is enabled for scheduling operations on the selected target. Selection of one or more software bundles is enabled, wherein the plan of operations on the selected target are based on the one or more software bundles. A unified visualization of the plan of operations on the selected target is displayed via a unified browser, wherein the unified browser displays the plan of operations with a common look and feel.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2014Date of Patent: September 13, 2016Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Stefan Cameron, John Powell, Patrick Devine, Mustafa Jamil, Daniel Hiltgen

Patent number: 9389848Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for scheduling a plan of operations in a datacenter selection of a target from a plurality of targets in the datacenter is enabled for scheduling operations on the selected target. Selection of one or more bundles is enabled, wherein the plan of operations on the selected target are based on the one or more bundles. Dependency relationships between the selected target and other targets in the plurality of targets are determined based on the selection of one or more bundles. The plan of operations on the selected target is scheduled.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2014Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: John Powell, Patrick Devine, Mustafa Jamil, Daniel Hiltgen, Timothy Stack, Saleem Abdulrasool, Moshe Zadka, Kshitij Padalkar

Publication number: 20150378969Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for a unified graphical user interface for displaying a plan of operations in a datacenter metadata is accessed from a plurality of disparate software bundles for updating targets in a datacenter. A unified visualization of a plan of operations on the targets is displayed via a unified graphical user interface based on the accessed metadata, wherein the unified graphical user interface displays the plan of operations with a common look and feel.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2014Publication date: December 31, 2015Inventors: John POWELL, Patrick DEVINE, Mustafa JAMIL, Daniel HILTGEN, Timothy STACK, Saleem ABDULRASOOL, Moshe ZADKA, Kshitij PADALKAR

Patent number: 8949585Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention includes a method of making a bootable image for a computer, wherein the bootable image corresponds to a first virtual machine but is bootable on a target machine, the method comprising: (a) instantiating the first virtual machine within a virtualization system and executing computations thereof, the computations operating upon an encapsulation of virtual machine state for the instantiated virtual machine; and (b) introducing into the encapsulation, a boot loader that defines at least one transformation to be performed on the encapsulation to allow the target machine to boot from the virtual machine state.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2008Date of Patent: February 3, 2015Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Hiltgen, Rene W. Schmidt
