New cloned VM disk is using the parent vmdk ? Is this linked clone? And does not ESXi 6.7 has clone option from right click vm "clone vm " option ?

[@VirtualTechBox]

New Cloned VM is independent, It is not using the parent vmdk. It is not the linked-clone also. For cloning the VM by right click you need vCenter, this video actually explains how to clone VM on a standalone host. If you want to see how to clone VM by right-clicking/through vCenter then refer to video "ruclips.net/video/nlRMfN8AgR8/видео.html".

[@naren06938]

Hi Ashfaq Sir, ur videos excellent always. Thanq, here my doubt is, can't we get direct clone VM option by right-click on existing VM instead of vmdk, vmx copying....etc, as in VCenter 5.5 client

[@VirtualTechBox]

Refer--ruclips.net/video/yoh-RDn05po/видео.html

[@arnabdey9731]

Isnit possible to clone a powered on VM? I am facing an issue where cloned VM is pointing to source VM's VMDK and Can't power it on. Please help

[@VirtualTechBox]

Yes, we can clone the powered-on VM through vCenter. Refer ruclips.net/video/nlRMfN8AgR8/видео.html

[@garaldo5147]

When the clone is complete, can you make the changes in the hard disk setting from thick to thin provision?

[@VirtualTechBox]

You cannot convert VM's HDD from Thick to Thin. You will have to do the V2V for that.

[@pscheuerling]

Good, can u run both vms of that host at the same time?

[@VirtualTechBox]

Yes, we can. We will have to apply a different IP to the new VM.

[@nourloulou2806]

Moi j'ai un problème il effectue pas le conage de mdvk. Pourquoi ?

[@VirtualTechBox]

Cela ne devrait pas arriver

[@supaz23]

Hi, thanks for the video, how about the license that installed in first windows ?

[@VirtualTechBox]

The license will be there in the target VM.

[@supaz23]

@@VirtualTechBox ok, so the cloning will be have same license. Thanks 👍

You cannot clone the template with this method. You can only clone VM.
