7. © 2012 IBM Corporation 7 Virtual Image Library Powerful search capabilities to find the image you need without the need for agents or for powering on the images. Identify “drift” of a virtual machine since its deployment at the product and file levels. Helps control image sprawl by finding groups of similar images to be replaced by a standard image. A source of standard images identified by version numbers. Deployments are recorded to trace virtual machines back to their origin.
