Abstract
A computer-implemented method for instantly restoring virtual machines in high input/output load environments may include (1) identifying a hypervisor that is configurable to maintain simultaneous connections to multiple datastores of a network-attached-storage system, (2) receiving a request to activate a new virtual machine on the hypervisor, (3) determining a usage of at least one connection from the hypervisor to at least one datastore of the network-attached-storage system, and (4) selecting, based on the usage of the connection, a designated connection from the hypervisor to a designated datastore of the network-attached storage system for use by the new virtual machine to store data on the network-attached-storage system. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
