8.14 VBoxManage clonehd This command duplicates a registered virtual hard disk image to a new image file with a new unique identifier (UUID). The new image can be transferred to another host system or imported into VirtualBox again using the Virtual Disk Manager; see chapter 3.5, The Virtual Disk Manager, page 42 and chapter 5.3, Cloning disk images, page 74.
