description An offline provisioning system provides a facility for provisioning a virtual machine without requiring that the virtual machine be launched. The system extends the configuration file or other mechanism used for storing virtual hardware configuration to store provisioning information for software state. The system uses the configuration information for pushing selective contents of the configuration information into the guest virtual machine as it is launched to perform guest provisioning. With these changes in place, a guest virtual machine can be provisioned when the virtual machine image is offline and not running. The system can even perform provisioning before an appropriate host has been identified to launch the guest virtual machine. This allows for much more rapid deployment and provisioning of virtual machines and frees administrative resources for other tasks.
