Abstract
An agent for managing virtual machines includes a persistent storage and a processor. The persistent storage stores backup/restoration policies. The processor identifies a virtual machine of the virtual machines that is likely to fail and, in response to identifying the virtual machine, identifies backup data associated with the identified virtual machine; instantiates a clone of the identified virtual machine using the identified backup; exposes the clone while the identified virtual machine is exposed; and hides the virtual machine after the clone is exposed.
