WE’RE ALL CLONES(And everything is fine)

OBEY YOUR MASTER

• Build a master VM

• Include all software you want to share across clones.

• VMWare Tools

SEEK AND DESTROY

• Grab only the disk and prepare it:

• VMWare uses .vmdk (inside your master.vmwarevm)

• Fix the paths and remove the UUID

• VirtualBox uses .vdi

• Make disk files read-only and immutable

SPAWN OF THY MASTER

• Create a new VM

• Use the master disk image instead of creating new

• Create a snapshot

• Run the clone

• May need to fix networking strangeness

SIMPLES
