Prerequisites for Virtualized DC Cloning
• The DC running the PDC emulator role cannot be cloned
• The Hypervisor that performs the cloning must support VM-Generation ID (Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V currently supports this.)
• You must perform the steps as a member of the Domain Admins group, and the PowerShell commands listed must be run from an elevated command prompt (right-click and select Run as Administrator.)
• The PDC emulator role must run on a DC that is running Windows Server 2012.
