MANAGED VIRTUAL MACHINES

Examples of enterprise management using managed virtual machines are described. Virtual machine files can be extracted from a virtual machine package and stored on a host device. The virtual machine files can include a managed virtual machine configuration file, an NVRAM file, and a virtual disk file, as well as other files. A digital signature of the managed virtual machine package can be verified. The digital signature can be based on the managed virtual machine configuration file, the NVRAM file, and a virtual disk file. The managed virtual machine can be added to a virtual machine inventory of the host desktop hypervisor and executed.
