Microsoft has launched the beta for VMST 2012.  This tool is used in conjunction with System Center 2012 Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) to update offline virtual machine resources from ConfigMgr/WSUS.

VMST 2012 helps you more effectively—and safely—manage the workflow of updating you offline virtualization environment. Using VMST 2012, you can now service:

- Offline virtual machines in a SCVMM library.

- Stopped and saved state virtual machines on a host.

- Virtual machine templates.

- Offline virtual hard disks in a SCVMM library by injecting update packages.
