# multi-clone.py #

multi-clone is a Python script which allows you to clone a virtual machine or virtual machine template into multiple new virtual machines in a VMware vSphere environment. 

This script has the following capabilities:

* Deploy a specified amount of virtual machines

* Deploy in a specified folder

* Deploy in a specified resource pool

* Set advanced configuration options

* Specify if the cloned virtual machines need to be powered on

* Print out information of the main network interface (mac and ip, either IPv4 or IPv6)

* Run a post-processing script with 3 parameters (virtual machine name, mac and ip)

* Instead of setting the basename, amount, resource pool and folder a CSV can be used

* Print logging to a log file or stdout

* Do this in a threaded way

Check [the multi-clone.py documentation](https://github.com/pdellaert/vSphere-Python/blob/master/docs/multi-clone.md) for more information on the options and capabilities.
