Cloning a hyper-v machine with AVHD files

Asked by mkrisz in Hyper-V, Hypervisor, Virtualization

Tags: hyper-v, avhd, clone, cloning, machine

Dear EE experts,

I have a Hyper-V virtual machine running Windows XP. When I installed this XP machine, I created a snapshot and several snapshots too after installation of some programs. My problem is that when I copy all of the VHD files (the vhd itself and the avhd files), the new VM which I create based on that VHD-s only reflects the FIRST state of that VM. How can I clone a machine which already has avhd files (snapshots)? Please NOT POST links, please post the exact, accurate steps since they are not long.

Thank you really much for your help,
Chris
