摘要： A method includes emulating an information handling system on a virtual machine, allowing users to create and validate an operating environment on the emulation, creating an image based on the validated environment, and loading the image onto an information handling system. The environment includes an operating system and an application from the virtual machine module, and an application from the user. A disk imaging system includes a virtual machine that emulates an information handling system, and a session manager that establishes a session between an interface and the virtual machine. The virtual machine allows users to create an operating environment including an operating system and an application from the virtual machine and an application from the users, and to validate the environment, captures an image of the environment, and loads the image onto an information handling system.

摘要： Images for information handling system manufacture and maintenance are created and managed by manipulating the images as virtual machines through a secure remote network interface, such as a virtual private network or virtual desktop infrastructure. Operating system and application installation and updates, such as service packs and patches, are performed on a virtual machine of the image to adjust the image as desired, and then the image is transformed for loading on physical information handling systems, such as newly manufactured information handling systems or deployed information handling systems in need of maintenance.

摘要： Drone virtual machines are leveraged to support asynchronous patch management by initiating a drone virtual machine in a maintenance environment to perform a patch management update, saving the updated virtual machine and then initiating the updated virtual machine in an operational environment accessible to clients. A drone is initiated in a maintenance environment for checking patch compliance in response to a request to initiate a virtual machine so that patch updates are performed before the virtual machine initiates in an operational environment accessible to operational clients.
