Zusammenfassung:Determining host machines on which to place a virtual machine. The method includes determining that a virtual machine to be deployed to a host will use a differencing disk chain based off of one or more base disks. One or more hosts are identified having the one or more base disks already available to the one or more hosts. One of the one or more hosts is selected at which to place the virtual machine based on the one or more hosts having the one or more base disks already available to the one or more hosts. The virtual machine is placed at the selected host.
