Create a vApp Template

After configuring your VM, you will be able to create your own templates from your vCloudDirector portal. These are referred to as vApp templates or vApp template

A vApp template is an image of your VM with its OS, its resources, its network cards , its applications

These templates make it possible to quickly deploy VMs in a consistent way. They are available in private catalogs within your organization.

Prerequisites

From Applications / Virtual Applications / ACTIONSCreate a template.

Specify :

  • the name of the catalog
  • The name of the template and a description if needed

Choose :

  • Make an identical copy
  • Customize the virtual machine settings

Customizing the settings will actually redefine certain parameters of your VM, such as its unique identifier. This can be compared to a sysprep.

From the Content Hub menu, check that your template is present in the catalog.
