    Abstract: A system receives a pause request to pause a virtual environment that includes one or more virtual machines, each respective virtual machine having a mounting point connected to at least one corresponding block level storage volume. The system builds a model and a dependency graph of one or more components in the virtual environment. The system stores the model, the dependency graph and tags a snapshot of each corresponding block level storage volume. The system stops the one or more components in accordance with dependency logic of the dependency graph and stops the one or more virtual machines. The system builds the virtual environment and restarts the virtual machines in response to a resume request.
