customized the VM build

Hi All,

  Thanks in advance.

    I are working on a script to deploy a VM by using the the  template in my Vcenter. My requirement is to customized the VM with my required configuration and then deploy the VM from template.

For ( eg) my template is configured with 1 CPU,4 GB memory ,1 HDD and i network, I am looking to change the vm configuration and build the new VM from this template. Is it possible and whether any one succeed in it.

When you deploy a VM from a template (New-VM), there are only a limited set of parameters available. And CPU, memory ... are not in there.

So you have 2 options:

  • change your template
  • Use cmdlets after the creation of the VM to change specific settings
