A block diagram of this process is shown in Figure 9-1.
Figure 9-1 Cloning block diagram
The top of the figure shows the Linux cloner/installation server that is running on the
RH6CLONE user ID. To use FLASHCOPY or dd, the RH6CLONE user ID requires a LINK to
the source minidisks that RH6GOLD owns and the destination minidisks that LINUX01 owns.
The figure shows that the LINK statement is issued as read-only (RR) for the source and
read/write (W) for the target. The VDISK-based swap spaces at virtual addresses 300 and
301 are defined in-memory, so they do not need to be copied.
9.5 Defining three more virtual machines
So far, you have installed Linux manually twice onto RH6CLONE and RH6GOLD. You have
created a new user ID named LINUX01 and cloned to it. Now it is time to prepare for more
cloning of each of the virtual servers described in the remaining chapters.
