To be clear, only one production installation per license is permitted.

A second test installation is allowed, as long as it is password protected and limited to site staff.

Don't forget you can set up "do not use email" as a setting in config.php, so if you clone your site you don't accidentally flood your members with email subscriptions for stuff they can't access.

That's covered in the guide:

• Add the code below to the bottom of your new /test directory /library/config.php file

$config['enableMail'] = false;

$config['cookie'] = array(
'prefix' => 'test_',
'path' => '/',
'domain' => ''
);
