Hi,

I need help with cloning/replication of a VPS from within proxmox.

Is it as simple as right clicking on any vps on our dedicated server, clicking clone and then filling in the information requested?

Please look at the screen shot. Specifically, what do I enter in the blank places or dropdown menus?

Where does the ipv4 address go or is this auto assigned by DHCP (and must all available ipv4 ranges be entered in to DHCP by the host prior to doing this)?

What about username and password? Will it simply have the same username and password as the original vps?

I look forward to getting your help on this one as we have been paying a fortune to get vps replicated (as well as set up) on our dedicated servers and really need to learn to do this myself.

Hope it is not too technical and you can explain in plain terms specifically what goes where?

Thanks in advance!

What you like. Non filed what is not auto-filled are required.
Click the help button for more information.

A Clone is a plain copy of the VM so no ip, password, user, etc will be set.
 
HI,

I need a very non technical straight forward explanation here as I am not an engineer.
Sending me to links with highly technical lanugauge is not helpful unfortuantely.

If someone can lay out the steps for me, 1,2,3,4,5,, of how to add user name and password and ipv4 to a VM Clone via proxmox I would
be eternally grateful.
