How to create a template VM with libvirt? Could you pelease offer me more
detail.
Many thanks
As far as I know there's no defined method or virsh command to do with
templates. My reference to templates is more the idea of creating a VM
who's purpose is to act as a clone source for future VMs. This system
would be configured then sysprepped. The final step of a sysprep is a
shutdown, so once shutdown this "template" would remain offline until a
change to the base is needed. Any startup of this VM would require another
sysprep before being cloned.
If more than a handful of clones need to be made I'd recommend looking at
OPSI or MDT for provisioning.
