Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computing system for recovery of virtual machines are described. A method may include creating, via a computing device, an image of at least a portion of a virtual machine disk. The method may further include comparing, via the computing device, the image of the portion of the virtual machine disk with the portion of the virtual machine disk that currently exists to determine changed sectors of the portion of the virtual machine disk. The method may additionally include restoring, via the computing device, the changed sectors of the portion of the virtual machine disk.
