VIRTUAL AND PHYSICAL ENTERPRISE SYSTEM IMAGING
First Claim
1. A method executed at least in part in a computing device for enterprise system imaging, the method comprising:
- receiving an imaging job request;
creating a workflow comprising job steps based on a configuration context of the imaging job request;
executing the workflow, wherein an image related to each job step is retrieved from a cache tree for each job step;
if an image is created for a job step, updating the cache tree with the newly created image; and
notifying a client submitting the imaging job request through a callback.

10. A system for providing imaging of computing devices, the system comprising:
-
a finite state machine management (FSM) client configured to; receive a developer created customized deployment job; register the customized deployment job with a machine management service; a machine management server executing the machine management service configured to; provide machine configuration data context to a workflow host; request an imaging job from the workflow host; and an FSM server executing at least one workflow host configured to; create a workflow comprising job steps based on the machine configuration context associated with the imaging job request; execute the workflow, wherein an image related to each job step is retrieved from a cache tree for each job step; if an image is created for a job step, update the cache tree with the newly created image; and provide a result of the workflow execution to the machine management service upon completion of the workflow. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-readable storage medium with instructions stored thereon for enterprise system imaging, the instructions comprising:
-
receiving a developer created customized deployment job; registering the customized deployment job with a machine management service; receiving an imaging job request; transferring the received imaging job request to the machine management service; requesting the imaging job from a workflow host by the machine management service, wherein the workflow host executes the workflow; creating a workflow at the workflow host, the workflow comprising job steps based on a configuration context of the imaging job request; executing the workflow at the workflow host, wherein an image related to each job step is retrieved from a cache tree for each job step; if an image is created for a job step, updating the cache tree with the newly created image; and notifying a client submitting the imaging job request through a callback from the machine management service. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
