LXC Templates

Before creating a new LXC service, you must add one or more LXC templates to ProxCP. Proxmox provides a bunch of pre-made LXC templates available for download.

To add a LXC template, click ADMIN > Manage LXC Templates. In the Friendly Name field, enter a name for the template such as "CentOS 7". In the volume ID field, enter the volume ID of the template. The format for this is {storage_name}:vztmpl/{file_name}. For example, if the LXC template was stored in the "local-lvm" Proxmox storage, the volume ID would be local-lvm:vztmpl/template.tar.gz.

ProxCP assumes that all LXC templates are available on all added Proxmox nodes.
