I agree, replicate is a great way to "clone" the existing server, but I am tasked to record the steps it took to create the server such that someone else could do it.
Such info could be used to make a separate server for a different group for a different project by tweaking parameters.

Cobbler replicate is definitely the way to go, or if you use some kind of SAN replication like SRDF you can store all of your data on a replicated LUN.
