Hello everyone,
I have a basic question, because I hate having to reinvent the wheel - are there any workflows to deploy a template?
Also, I have two additional questions:
As far as I understand, deploying a template actually creates a VM from scratch and somehow clones the disk of the template and you get a nice VM with an OS almost ready to work. I'm wondering if something similar is possible for existing VMs - meaning I have created a custom VM and I want to deploy a template to it (so that I get a preinstalled OS). I'm not sure if this is possible, but I thought I'd ask
![]()
Deploying a template doesn't allow the operator to choose RAM/networking - so I'm guessing these settings are inherited from the template.If I need to override them I suppose I would need to reconfigure the VM after deployment. Would this break the OS inside? I would mainly need to add a new network card, set some MAC addresses, change RAM and maybe add some disks.
Is there an easier way to automatically add an OS to your custom built VM?
Thank you,
Adrian
