Abstract
A system, method, and software product provides for managing resources in a virtual machine. The system comprises a guest memory and a processor. The guest memory stores a file exception table and a file inclusion table. The file exception table indicates at least one first name of a host resource. The file exclusion table indicates at least one second name of a guest resource. The processor receives a resource query, processes the resource query to determine a host weight value using a weighting operation and the file exception table. The processor also processes the resource query to determine a guest weight value using the weighting operation and the file inclusion table. Additionally, the processor compares the host weight value to the guest weight value to determine whether the resource query is associated with the host resource or the guest resource.
