When do you need network cloning

In traditional system cloning, when performing system migration, it is necessary to insert the new disk into the same machine as the source system for system cloning. After the cloning is completed, insert the target disk into the machine to be started. This cloning cannot be done if the two machines are physically far apart. Cyber clone can clone a disk to any network-connected machine in the world through the network.

How to do a network clone

1. Both machines will have WittyTool DiskClone running.
2. Set receive data endpoint, the machine where the cloned target disk resides.. “port” and “data transfer port” are the two ports required for incoming network. If you are not familiar with the network, it is recommended not to modify these two ports. “Password” is the password authentication for the connection of the remote machine. Only when the password is correct can the machine be connected. Click the “Start” button to start receiving remote connection.

After start, the UI shows like follow:

3. Data provider(Send data to remote machine) connection. ”Remote Address” fill in the IP of the receiver. “port”, “data transfer port”, “password” fill in the same parameters as the receiver.

Click “Connect” button to connect the remote. After connected success, the follow UI show:

Now you can choose the cloning method “System Migration”, “Disk Clone” or “Partition Clone”. After selecting the source or target step by step according to the wizard, network cloning starts. After waiting for a successful completion, the target is ready to use.
