Abstract

An example system may include a processor and a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing instructions executable by the processor to issue a request from an intermediary system to a daemon service to export a container image, including a plurality of individually executable prerequisite layers, from a host, wherein the plurality of individually executable prerequisite layers includes a first individually executable prerequisite layer absent from a target system and a second individually executable prerequisite layer installed on the target system; and convert the exported container image to an abridged container image, deliverable to the target system, by copying the first individually executable prerequisite layer to an abridged deliverable container image location without the second individually executable prerequisite layer.
