How does template/host full clone differ from clone

[Piavlo]

What is the difference between clone and full clone?
And in which cases should i use each one of them?

Thanks

cloning a host will carry over the basic configuration - host name, IP, Template, proxy, etc.

A full clone will carry over the basic config plus any other items such as graphs assigned to the host, profile information (I believe).

If you go to a host and try both options, you will see with the full clone some more information boxes open up down the page. Those are the items that would carry over.

In my case, I really only use full clone if I want to carry over graphs that I have assigned to the host I am cloning from.
