Issue
I want to clone a virtual machine (VM) in Acronis Manager Standard. How do I do that?
Resolution
To clone your VM, right click on the VM from the object tree and select the Clone command. The Clone Virtual Machine wizard will appear:
- Edit the path where you would like to save the temporarily exported VM files (the default path is <current VM location>\Exported Virtual Machines). Use the Browse button to select the target location and click Next
- Enter the name for VM clone. The default name is <VM name> - clone.
- Set the number of clones. A maximum of 100 clones can be created. The default number is 1.
- Edit the path for the clones’ configuration files (the default path is <current VM location>\Imported VMs). Use the Browse button to select the target location.
- Edit the path for the clones’ storage (the default path is <current VM location>\Imported VHDs). Use the Browse button to select the target location.
Click Next to review the details and summary of the VM cloning operation and then click Finish to complete cloning of the VM.
