Cloned HDD - adjustments in Linux?
by grigory from LinuxQuestions.org on (#54P6Q)
Hello!
Recently I found out that it should be OK for me hardware-wise to clone the hard disk which contains my servers in it. It's Ubuntu 16.04 (Desktop edition) The second part of my question (the first one I asked in previous thread) is about OS. Linux that is... As far as I know (and I'm no expert in the field)... if I make an image of the whole disk bit by bit (Clonezilla), then I shouldn't worry about making any adjustments in OS's config files. Provided that both drives are identical, of course! So it's just kinda "Plug-n-play" thing. Would be ready "out of the box", just to clone and that's it. Same disk as far as OS is concerned. But I just wanna make sure... I'll attach two pictures of disks with all the info about them.
