Linux Customization Clone Workflows
With Linux customization workflows you can clone a Linux virtual machine and customize the guest operating
system.
You can access the Linux customization clone workflows from Library > vCenter > Virtual Machine
management > Clone > Linux Customization in the Workflows view of the Orchestrator client.
Clone a Linux machine
with multiple NICs
Clones a Linux virtual machine, performs the guest operating system
customization, and configures up to four virtual network cards.
Clone a Linux machine
with a single NIC
Clones a Linux virtual machine, performs the guest operating system
customization, and configures one virtual network card.
Tools Clone Workflows
With tools clone workflows you can obtain customization information about the operating system of the virtual
machine, information needed to update a virtual device, and so on.
You can access the tools clone workflows from Library > vCenter > Virtual Machine management > Clone >
Tools in the Workflows view of the Orchestrator client.
