How did you do that? Through the 'send dhcp-client-identifier' option? I have wished that the dchp client config file had something like "send vname-as-dhcp-client-identifier" so that it could in the "constant" part of the clone. Then it could be used on all virtual servers. (Where vname is something like hypervisorname-vmname.)
