Advice on a Virtualization Strategy

Hi.


I have been tasked with creating a Pre-Prod/TEST server that mirrors a live server and I am looking for some on advice on the best way to achieve this using Hyper V

I need to know if is possible to automate a Copy from a Live VM to a Test VM without downtime for the live VM.

I know I can manually export the live VM and Import in to the test environment but this can be time consuming so if possible would like to automate this to happen overnight each night.

Or indeed if there are better ways to achieve what I want to do, I would be very grateful for any advice.

I don’t mind putting the time in to research any methods, just need pointing in the right direction

Thanks in advance
