1. A computer program product for creation of highly available pseudo-clone standby servers for rapid failover provisioning, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage device having program code embodied therewith, the program code executable by a computer to:

  • evaluate at least two different target computing system configurations of installed hardware components and installed software components;

    responsive to the evaluating at least two different target computing system configurations of installed hardware components and installed software components, determine a subset of components in common among the different configurations, the subset being less than but not all of the installed hardware components and installed software components of any of configurations of the targeted computing systems;

    determine an initial pseudo-clone configuration including at least the subset but not all components of any target configurations;

    produce at least one finish-out workflow of installation steps and components to be installed into an incompletely configured computer system according to the pseudo-clone configuration to produce an operational clone system; and

    output the pseudo-clone configuration and the finish-out workflow to a provisioning management system.
