Note
For virtual L-Servers, the results of cloning image collection vary based on the disk configurations as follows.
[VMware]
When the target L-Server includes Raw Device Mapping (RDM) disks, the target disks are treated as virtual disks and the image will be
collected.

-
When using MAC license authentication for activation of Windows Server 2008 images, Sysprep can be executed a maximum of three
times. Since Sysprep is executed when creating L-Server with images specified or when collecting cloning images, collection of
cloning images and creation of L-Servers with images specified cannot be performed more than three times. Therefore, it is
recommended not to collect cloning images from L-Servers that have had cloning images deployed, but to collect them from a dedicated
master server.

When the target server of cloning image collection has a redundant NIC configured, release redundancy and then perform collection.
