Abstract
Systems and methods of the present disclosure can facilitate generating virtual machines (VMs). The system can include an orchestrator executing on a server, an agent, a hypervisor, a transfer VM, and a target VM different from the transfer VM. The orchestrator can transmit the agent to be installed on a source machine to generate a snapshot and transmit a current state of a first filesystem of the source machine to the orchestrator, which can use it to configure a second filesystem on the hypervisor and initiate the transfer VM on the hypervisor using a default filesystem independent of the first and second filesystem configurations. The orchestrator can instruct the agent to transfer the snapshot to the transfer VM to write to the second filesystem, update the second filesystem to be operative to start an operating system, and create the target VM configured to launch from the second filesystem.
