Abstract
According to one embodiment, virtual machine attributes are verified. Information (142) about attributes for a virtual machine (152) is obtained (320) from a host machine (120) that the virtual machine (152) executes on. Actual virtual machine attributes (162) are obtained 330 from the virtual machine (152). Discrepancies between the information (142) about the attributes and the actual virtual machine attributes (162) are determined (340) by comparing the information (142) about the attributes to the actual virtual machine attributes (162).
