Preface
When we need multiple virtual machines, if they are all added, it will be more troublesome. At this time, we can use the clone function to quickly create virtual machines.
Prerequisite: There is an installed virtual machine, and the virtual machine is not started
VMware clone virtual machine
Right click on the virtual machine and select the managed clone option
After clicking, the following window appears
Click Next, select the current state cloned from the virtual machine
Next, select the clone type, the difference between the two types is as follows, I choose full clone
After selecting the full clone, fill in the name and location of our cloned virtual machine
Click finish
Modify the virtual machine ip and hostname
After cloning, we also need to modify the virtual machine ip and hostname
Modify hostname
Edit the /etc/hostname file, write the host name you want to modify, and save it with :wq
vi /etc/hostname
Modify the virtual machine ip
Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens33 file, change the last 128 of the IPADDR value to other numbers and change BOOTPROTO to static (if not, add it)
vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens33
Description:
BOOTPROTO=static 静态IP
BOOTPROTO=dhcp 动态IP
After saving, use systemctl restart network to restart network
If you want to view the network of the virtual machine, you can use the ifconfig command to view it. The ip address behind inet is the ip address of our virtual machine.
