Yes, C and E are right The recommendation is to ensure the D-Bus Machine ID is unique. https://wiki.debian.org/MachineId#:~:text=The%20machine%20id%20is%20something%20that%20is%20frequently%20missed%20to%20change%20when%20cloning%20a%20machine https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/402999/is-it-ok-to-change-etc-machine-id https://askubuntu.com/questions/1179897/ubuntu-18-04-guests-which-cloned-by-virtualbox-have-the-same-ip-but-different-ma For security reasons, E SSH host keys must not be duplicated https://blog.technodrone.cloud/2013/01/the-ssh-key-problem-with-cloned-linux.html

Machine ID is a unique hexadecimal 32 character string given to your machine during installation. So it should be changed if the machine is cloned to prevent duplicate ID on a network. SSH keys are unique to each server/client and also should be changed to securely SSH

host SSH keys needs to replace because the host name IP of the cloned machine will be changed.

As for D, don't see this being something that necessarily needs to be changed. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/configuring_and_managing_virtualization/cloning-virtual-machines_configuring-and-managing-virtualization#:~:text=Note%20that%20disk%20images%20for%20VMs%20created%20in%20the%20system%20connection%20of%20libvirt%20are%20by%20default%20located%20in%20the%20/var/lib/libvirt/images%20directory%20and%20owned%20by%20the%20root%20user
