Abstract

Performing server virtual machine image migration and dependent server virtual machine image discovery in parallel is provided. Migration of a server virtual machine image that performs a workload is started to a client device via a network and, in parallel, an identity is continuously discovered of a set of dependent server virtual machine images corresponding to the server virtual machine image being migrated to the client device. In response to discovering the identity of the set of dependent server virtual machine images, a server migration pattern of the discovered set of dependent server virtual machine images is generated for the workload. A level of risk corresponding to migrating each dependent server virtual machine image of the discovered set of dependent server virtual machine images to the client device is calculated based on the server migration pattern of the discovered set of dependent server virtual machine images for the workload.
