2012 default profile to clone the VM

Hello Team,

Every time after creating a virtual machine of 2012 OS, am changing the host name manually.

IS there any default profile for 2012?

I have one  profile for creating VM's of 2008.  I tried to create similar profile for 2012 as well but it is not working.

Can you please suggest if there is a way to create default profile for 2012 as well.

Thanks,

Do you mean creating OVF template/VM template? So that you can deploy VMs by using the same template whenever you need.

Plz clarify.

NO , I have created the template with customization and converted as a template.

I need to use this tmpl and create new machines based in the user request. Everytime after creating the machine I am login into the machine and changing the host name manually. If I created 1 machine ok, but some time I have to create a 5 - 10 machines. In this case login to every machine changing the host name is a big task for me.
