Can we use these sequences?
- Stop PMG VM
- Clone PMG VM to PMG VMCLONE (hostname persists)
- Start PMG VM again
- Start VMCLONE with different IP address

- Shutdown the original VM
- Change VMCLONE IP address to VM IP address
- Restart the new VM
- Delete the original VM

The crucial question is whether two machines with the same hostname and the same subscription can be supported.
