  • Unified and efficient method to generate file system table (FSTAB) to support on-premise and multi-cloud environment
    Patent number: 11425191
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system for generating a virtual machine (VM) installation file to deploy a VM in different cloud environments is disclosed. A file system table (FSTAB) representing a file system of the VM to be deployed is generated. The FSTAB includes one or more predetermined universally unique identifiers (UUIDs) identifying one or more dummy VM disks. Then, a first VM installation file based on the FSTAB and one or more dummy VM disk files corresponding to the dummy VM disks is generated. Next, one or more real VM disk files representing one or more real VM disks to be deployed in the cloud environments are created. Thereafter, the dummy disk files in the first VM installation file are replaced with the corresponding real VM disk files to generate a second VM installation file. The second VM installation is used to deploy VM in different cloud environments.
