Systems and methods for facilitating test failover on a remote virtual machine without creating a full copy of the remote virtual machine. A snapshot is created of a remote virtual machine disk, the remote virtual machine disk protecting a source virtual machine disk. An instant, thin provisioned virtual machine is created from the snapshot, and the instant, thin provisioned virtual machine is powered on based on a received instruction to power on the instant, thin provisioned virtual machine thereby creating a running instance of a virtual machine, thereby facilitating test failover on the remote virtual machine without creating a full copy of the remote virtual machine.
