Current State
The "current state" represents the "now" point in the life time of the virtual machine. The current state can be preserved by taking a snapshot.
Clone
Full Clone
A clone that copies all depending disk images into the new VM folder. A full clone can fully operate without the source VM.
Linked Clone
A linked clone refers to parent disk images.
Cloning "Everything"
If "Everything" is chosen when cloning, the current state of the VM and all snapshots are cloned.
