Creating a Virtual Machine from a Template
On the initial screen, enter the name for the new virtual machine and click ''Next'' to proceed to the ''Hardware Settings'' screen. This screen will contain the settings pre-configured from the template and do not need to be configured unless there is to be any deviation from the template settings. The same is true of the ''Guest Operating System'' screen which is displayed when the ''Next'' button is pressed. The next screen entitled ''Select Destination'' defines where the new virtual machine is to placed. The only option available here is to create the virtual machine on a host, so keep the default and proceed to the ''Select Host'' screen.
The ''Select Host'' provides a list of available hosts. Select the desired target host for the virtual machine, proceed to the ''Select pathPath'' screen and choose a location on the target host file system for the new virtual machine. Click ''Next'' to choose which the virtual network networks on the target host to which any configured network adapters are to be connected to.
The ''Additional Properties'' screen provides the option to define what should happen to the virtual machine when the target host system starts up and stops. The final screen displays a summary of the new virtual machine settings. Review the information and click ''Create'' to create the new virtual machine on the selected host.
