How to create a Proxmox Template
A template is a fully pre-configured operating system image that can used to deploy KVM virtual machines.
The template is essentially a snapshot of a virtual machine that has been configured with a specific operating system, applications, settings, and any other necessary configurations, allowing you to deploy new virtual machines quickly to save time and effort.
Create VM Template
Templates are created by converting a VM to a template.
1- Install your VM with all drivers and needed software packages
2- Remove all user data, passwords and keys - In order to do this run sysprep on Windows or similar tools or scripts on Linux and just power-off the VM.
3- Right-click the VM and select "Convert to template"
Note
As soon as the VM is converted, it cannot be started anymore and the icon changes. If you want to modify an existing template, you need to deploy a full clone from this template and do the steps above again.
Deploy a VM from a Template:
Right-click the template, and select "Clone".
Full Clone
A full clone VM is a complete copy and is fully independent from the original VM or VM Template, but it requires the same disk space as the original.
Linked Clone
A linked clone VM requires less disk space but cannot run without access to the base VM Template.
