Scenario
A clone powers on successfully, but network conflicts appear because the guest retained the original identity.
Recommended Resolution Path
- Check hostname, IP configuration, and any agent or domain identity artifacts left from the source image.
- Use the platform’s supported clone or template prep workflow rather than ad hoc copying.
- Verify the clone is safe before reconnecting it to production networks.
- Document the golden image process so future clones come out cleaner.
Technician Notes
Document what changed, what confirmed the fix, and whether the issue points to a broader standards gap worth addressing for the client.
