The storage server stores a plurality of virtual machine (VM) operating systems (OS's). The storage server comprises computer executable code, including a VM scheduler service (VMSS) module. The VMSS module is configured to determine a scheduled start time for each of the VM OS's based on configuration data corresponding to the VM OS's, generate a command based on the scheduled start time for each of the VM OS's, and send the command to the at least one virtualization server. Upon receiving the command, the hypervisor executed at the at least one virtualization server requests data of one of the VM OS's at the corresponding scheduled start time to start the one of the VM OS's.
