Oh I now read the subject and know what you want to do.
Say there is a VE with ID 100, and you want to make a clone of it; a new
VE will have ID 200. Here is how:
# Stop source VE
vzctl stop 100
# Copy VE private area:
cd /vz/private/
mkdir 200
cp -a 100/* 200/
# Copy VE config file
cd /etc/sysconfig/vz-scripts/
cp 100.conf 200.conf
# Change VE 200 IP address: remove old ones than add some new ones
vzctl set 200 --ipdel all --ipadd x.x.x.x --save
# Start original VE and the clone
vzctl start 100
vzctl start 200
One can write a simple shell script for that if you want to do it
regularly. As you can see, this is just a few copy and vzctl set operations.
