Abstract:
A storage layer based orchestration method can efficiently migrate a virtualized, enterprise scale system across disparate virtualization environments. A copy of a source logical storage container with multiple virtual disks of virtual machines (VMs) can be created in a public cloud destination as a destination logical storage container. Each of the VMs is associated with at least one virtual disk that includes boot data (“boot disk”) for the VM. With application programming interface function calls and/or scripted task automation and configuration management commands, the orchestration method coordinates different applications and tools to convert the boot disks into canonical storage representations (e.g., logical unit numbers (LUNs)), to instantiate VMs in the destination environment, and to chain load the boot disks to launch the VMs in a different virtualization environment.

Claim (Index 1):
A method comprising:\n identifying a first logical storage container in a cloud environment that has been replicated from a second logical storage container in a source environment; identifying virtual disks in the first logical storage container that include boot data for virtual machines of the source environment; converting the identified virtual disks into storage container representations; mounting the storage container representations for access by virtual machines deployed in a cloud environment; and chain loading the boot data of the storage container representations into corresponding ones of the deployed virtual machines.
