Abstract: A system and method for reducing storage space requirements for an embedded hypervisor. The system and method includes installing an application context on a hypervisor while installing files needed by the applications to a shared storage device. Such a system and method provides a unique application context install. Additionally, such a system and method uniquely shares applications while reducing the space occupied on the embedded device. Also, such system and a method uniquely loads applications from remote storage without actually caching the applications on a local system.

Abstract: A method for providing a virtualization system includes receiving a plurality of virtualization system requirements from a customer that include a plurality of information handling systems (IHSs), at least one storage, and a plurality of configuration details. A primary IHS and a secondary IHS are designated, and configuration data, an application interface, and a primary IHS operating system are provided on the primary IHS. Following physical connection of the plurality of IHSs and in response to activation of the primary IHS, a primary IHS first boot process initiates the application interface that then automatically activates the secondary IHS and uses the configuration data to automatically configure the at least one storage. In response to activation of the secondary IHS, a secondary IHS operating system on the secondary IHS initiates a secondary IHS first boot process that automatically configures virtualization software installed on the secondary IHS.
