Turning on cloned linode takes over original linode web site
I had a breach on the web server so I cloned it to "Linode002". I then restored from backup onto my production Linode server called "Web006". When I went to turn on the cloned site to review our log files it wanted to take over the production webserver so i quickly turned it off. Is there a way to gain access to the clone without affecting my production environment?

Yes — you can boot the compromised Linode into Rescue Mode and then access it with Lish. If you need to transfer files from Rescue Mode, you could start SSH for that purpose.
