Abstract

A method, an apparatus, and a server for managing an image across cloud servers relate to the field of computer technologies. The method includes: obtaining layered image information of a layered image file of a service virtual machine on a second cloud server; creating a boot partition and a rootfs partition based on a pre-created installer virtual machine and the layered image information; and creating, based on the boot partition and the rootfs partition, an image corresponding to the service virtual machine. In this method, no manual operation is required, and not only reducing management costs, but also improving management efficiency.
