Hi there
If you use a product like vmware just power off the vm and then on the menu choose CLONE VM>

You can either make a "linked" clone or a full clone. the full clone is what you need as the "linked" clone will still require access to the state of the original vm.


(I think virtual box has this facility as well).


Another method is to install acronis true image on your VM and back it up.

Then create another vm. install acronis true image and restore your original vm.

Cheers
