What is a Clone and how to Clone a virtual machine?


A clone is a copy of an existing virtual machine. The existing virtual machine is called the parent of the clone. When the cloning operation is complete, the clone is a separate virtual machine.
In Simple, if we need the same kind of existing virtual machine, we can clone this machine.

To clone a virtual machine >> Right Click on Virtual machine>> Select Clone.

On the Clone Wizard select the destination Host/Cluster and Datastore where we want to place the Cloned virtual machine.
 
At the last screen of the wizard, we will find the options to customize the new virtual machine hardware, where we can increase/decrease the CPU, RAM, Disk size…etc.
