<DIV>> The virt-clone tool is implemented by running a large number of</DIV>
<DIV>> individual libvirt APIs. There's no API that does everything in</DIV>
<DIV>> one go, because that would be an application specific use case.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>In addition you can't clone a VM just using libvirt APIs:</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/09/24/tip-my-procedure-for-cloning-a-fedora-vm/</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>On Windows you'd probably want to run the sysprep program.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>This is a bug in the virt-clone tool:</DIV>
