Hello, all!

We have a VM template and have provisioned many VMs using this template.

But recently our school purchased a new education software, and we wanted to reorganize the VM templates, add the software we purchased, and reprovision some new VMs.

Can I update a VM template? Or does I need to re-create the template?

Posted by lisali at 2020-11-05 11:16 Dear Olive!Thanks for your help!The template is linked clone VM template.

1. Cloning a template.

2. Converting the template into a VM.

3. Using the template tool to configure the VM OS.

4. Installing application software.

5. Converting a VM into a template. 

Then you can use the template to provision VMs.

For details, see the following documents:
