Clone
Clone function can backup data from the source virtual disk to target. Here is the clone operation.
At the beginning, copy all data from the source virtual disk to target. It is also called full copy.
Afterwards, use snapshot technology to perform the incremental copy. Please be fully aware that
the incremental copy needs to use snapshot to compare the data difference. Therefore, the
enough snapshot space for the virtual disk is very important. Of course, clone job can also be set
as schedule.
