Hi...making system copies the standard way (either backup/restore and/or db ex/import) i am familiar with...but what about a SAP system running in a VMWare environment? is it possible to just "clone" the system adjusting IP, hostname and SID afterwards using special tools and/or scripts provided by VMWare? Or do i have to do it the "standard" way by transferring data (either backup/restore or db dump data) between these two virtual systems and adjusting the appropriate parameters afterwards (eg. SE06, STMS etc.)?

Any help appreciated!!!
