Hi,
I have 2 Virtual Machines, 1 production and 1 test. Both VMs have a data disk and the test datadisk is a clone disk.
Because the cloned data disk is mounted on a seperate VM there are no problems with identical disk IDs etc.
But, what if I want to save on 1 VM and have both disks running in the same filserver VM? Are those problems easily solvable?
For instance, when I clone a VMWare datastore and add it to the inventory vSphere will see the identical ID and ask me if it needs to assign a new ID. The same for a VM that was cloned. I wonder if Windows fileserver has identical wizzards to solve the problem of mounting a cloned drive on the same VM.
Does anyone know?
