During conversion and transfer of data from a physical machine to a virtual hard disk, a transmuter generates a catalog of contents of the physical machine. Catalog entries are compared to a set of alterations templates which alter matching data. The altered data is then stored in the virtual hard disk. Alterations templates may include filters that exclude unwanted or duplicated catalog entries, mapping filters that transfer source catalog entries to target locations on the virtual hard disk, and add-on filters that add additional data or location references to catalog entries. The disclosed process allows modifications to be made in a systematic way during data transfer.

Caching connection information used to establish a communication connection setup between at least two endpoint devices across a data network. One example of operation may include exchanging at least one interface address and at least one globally unique identifier between the at least two endpoint devices. The method may also provide retrieving a last successful connection setup information based on the at least one globally unique identifier and the at least one interface address, assigning at least one port number to the at least one interface address via at least one of the two endpoint devices, exchanging at least one rendezvous message between the at least two endpoint devices to share connection setup information, and storing at least one of the at least one interface address, that at least one globally unique identifier, the last successful connection setup information, and the at least one port number in a cache file.

Method and apparatus of establishing a connection between devices using cached connection information

Disclosed are an apparatus and methods of remotely managing a managed machine over a communication network. One example method of operation may include identifying the managed machine operating in a communication network and transmitting a connection establishment message to the managed machine over the communication network. In response, an acceptance message may be received from the manage machine. Once a secure channel has been established, the administrator may begin transmitting a command prompt command over the communication network to be executed on the managed machine. The management operations may be performed from a browser-based application.

Disclosed are an apparatus and method of remotely communicating with a managed machine. One example method of operation may include selecting the managed machine operating in a communication network, transmitting a connection request message to the managed machine and establishing a secure connection between the managed machine and an administrator machine. The example method may also include responsive to connecting with the managed machine, executing a host service on the managed machine, and connecting to the host service over the communication network via an application client operating on the administrator machine.

Management of virtual machines within a private network may be provided from a server application, such as a web application, on a machine remote from a private network. The server application receives management commands and communications the management commands in a vendor independent format to a client application within the private network. The client application receives the management commands, instantiates the management commands into a vendor specific definition and redirects the management commands to the virtual machine host for appropriate execution.

Remote management of virtual machines hosted in a private network

Disclosed are an apparatus and method of remotely communicating with a managed machine. One example method may include identifying the managed machine operating in a communication network, transmitting a connection establishment message to the managed machine over the communication network, and receiving an acceptance message from the managed machine. The method may also include requesting a screen capture of present operating conditions of the managed machine, and receiving the screen capture formatted in a compressed format. The administrator may be able to receive and view the screen capture via a compressed thumbnail format.
