How to Create a VM Template in Proxmox VE

From the creator

Using Proxmox VE, the popular Debian/ KVM/ Ceph/ ZFS virtualization cluster platform, we create a Ubuntu 16.04 VM, convert it to a template, migrate it to another cluster node and then clone the template to make a new Ubuntu VM all in about five minutes. For those looking to try a VMware alternative for small clusters, the ability to create basic VM templates and then deploy VMs across the cluster from those templates saves admins a lot of time. For those wondering how stable Proxmox VE KVM virtualization is, the first node we are showing has uptime of over a year (hence the older UI.) Although we are using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, one can just as easily do this with other OSes such as CentOS and FreeBSD.
