\nGenerate new MAC addresses for all network adapters<\/li>\n
<\/p>\n
Full Clone via the Virtual Box Gui<\/h3>\n
Oracle’s Virtual Box offers you a few options when it comes to cloning. The important one for us is the “Full Clone”, which copies all dependent disks to the new VM folder. The beauty of a “Full Clone” is that it can operate fully by it’s own without any reference to the source VM.
\nThe next important option is the ability to generate new MAC addresses for all network adapters that are attached to the VM. Without this option, the VM’s will not be able to communicate with each other.<\/p>\n
After these options are set, the cloning itself is quite boring. Just shutdown the VM, start the cloning process, and meanwhile drink a coffee. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The next step is to adjust the udev rules, because the virtual hardware WWN’s might have change. Simply follow the instruction, which I already have documented in the below Blog.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h3>\n
By following these steps, you have seen that cloning of a pre-configured VM with Oracle Restart is possible, and from my point of view much faster compared to re-installing the OS, GI Software, Patching … and so on, which you would have done otherwise. Besides that, it is a cool exercise, because you might learned something new about Oracle Restart, and re-configuring it. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
