First off, what version of ESX(i) are you using? It's a little hard to read your post, please reformat it so it's more readable.

If you have vCenter, you can take a look at vmclone.pl and snapshotmanager.pl to clone and perform snapshot of your VMs as part of the vSphere SDK for Perl.

If you would like to extract the VM's MAC Address, take a look at this Perl script: , you can easily modify this script to extract the IP Address as well. Remember for this information within the VM, you'll need to ensure you have VMware Tools installed else you will not be able to retrieve this information.
