→Creating a Hardware Profile
Once the settings are complete, click on ''OK'' to create the new profile. After the hardware profile has been created, it will be listed under ''Profiles'' in the ''Resources'' pane located in the top left corner of the VMM Administrator console window. The settings may be changed at any time by right clicking on the profile and selecting ''Properties'' from the resulting menu. Similarly, a hardware profile may be copied or deleted by right clicking on the required profile and selecting ''Copy'' or ''Delete'' respectively.
Once the hardware profile has been created it is ready to be used in the creation of a virtual machine template. Before getting to that point, however, we will first look at the creation of a new guest operating system profile.

Guest Operating System profiles are also created from within the ''Library'' view of the VMM Administrator Console. With the view displayed, click on the ''New guest OS profile'' link located in the ''Actions'' pane to invoke the wizard as illustrated below:
