Cloning the Virtual Machine
Now that you have a virtual machine with Windows 2000 Advanced Server installed,
you can save time by cloning this virtual machine as follows:
1. Run sysprep.exe, which is available on the Windows 2000 CD in the
\support\tools\deploy.cab file. This strips the security ID assigned to
the guest operating system and resets the machine information as well as the
TCP/IP network configuration.
2. Shut down the guest operating system and power off the virtual machine.
3. On the management interface’s Overview page, click Manage Files.
4. Drill down to the vmfs folder then the vms folder. This may take some time to
refresh.
5. Select the check box next to the cluster1.dsk file.
6. Click Copy.
7. Click Paste.
8. When the copy process is complete, select the check box next to the file copy
of cluster1.dsk.
9. Click Edit Properties.
