May I please ask if changing an IP address on a VM server environment will trigger cloning?
I’ve checked below

Clik here to view.
Based on my initial understanding – clone triggers are due to physical hardware changes (Hard drive serial number and Motherboard ID).
But on the diagram above, I thought since IP address is part of the Custom Scheme for clone protection – I reckon it also triggers cloning?
Can you please clarify when the change of an IP address will trigger a cloning?
Coz its not really highlighted in the information cheat sheet - but I have a few more other queries:
- If one is to use the same vDisk for separate virtual machines, would that trigger cloning?
- How likely is it to trigger clone protection if the drive is the system drive?
- How likely is it to trigger clone protection if it's a data drive then?
- Will a change on the actual host cluster cluster trigger a cloning?
- How does snapshot trigger a cloning?
Please advise.
Thanks!
