Once the cloned system is sysprepped (or the original is sysprepped before cloning) , upon first boot you can rename the system. For windows , if your going to be cloning numerous VMs, I'd recommend looking at OPSI (http://www.opsi.org/) or possibly MDT to do true provisioning. If the overhead to setup either of those is not cost effective, then creating a 'template' VM may be a good alternative. - Trey _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
