Description
The VBoxManage clonevm command adds the cloned harddisk to the media manager even when the "--register" option is not used.
This causes clonevm to fail when used more than once.
For example:
~> VBoxManage clonevm Mercury --mode all --basefolder "/mnt/Bronze Backup/Virtual Machines" --name Mercury
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
Machine has been successfully cloned as "Mercury"
~> rm -r /mnt/Bronze\ Backup/Virtual\ Machines/Mercury/
~> VBoxManage clonevm Mercury --mode all --basefolder "/mnt/Bronze Backup/Virtual Machines" --name Mercury
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...
Progress state: NS_ERROR_INVALID_ARG
VBoxManage: error: Cannot register the hard disk '/mnt/Bronze Backup/Virtual Machines/Mercury/Mercury.vdi' {da9523a4-5d83-4cfe-bc80-10344c6d424f} because a
