Clone entire Salesforce environment
I am looking to create an exact clone of our production Salesforce instance into a new, completely separate enterprise instance of Salesforce. I would like everything to clone over such as custom objects, fields, triggers, workflows, apex classes, visualforce pages, etc. Has anyone been through a similar situation? I'm looking for all and any advice on the easiest way to complete this task.
Thank you in advance!!
Hi,
1. Create a project in Eclipse(Force.com IDE) or the Ant Tool for your current instance.
2. Extract all the metadata(select all components).
3. Create a project for the destination org in Eclipse
4. Copy over the metadata to that org's folder, refresh in eclipse and save

Thank you, Adrian. As far as you know, will this copy everything? Even custom fields, reports, dashboards, etc?
You can choose what to copy or select all to copy everything (which includes custom objects and fields, reports, dashobards also).
