Create and deploy a VM from a template shortcut

To quickly create and/or deploy a VM from a VM template:

1. Go to Catalogue → Virtual machine templates 

2. Select a VM template and from the options menu, select Create VM
   
   

   Open

   

   Create a VM from a template shortcut

3. Enter a Name for the VM. Remember that some hypervisors and providers do not allow duplicate names so if you use a common name, such as the template name, your VM may be renamed

4. Select a virtual datacenter or create a new one

5. Select a virtual appliance or create a new one
   
   

   Open

   

   Enter details to create a VM from a template

You can now deploy directly, or go to the virtual appliance, in order to edit the VM.

It is also possible to open the advanced configuration before you deploy.
