In this video I show you how to create VM Templates in Proxmox. We will use Packer from Hashicorp, which is a free and open-source image automation tool. This can create custom machine images for Proxmox with provisioning shell scripts and inject configuration settings via Cloud-Init. #Proxmox #Packer #Cloudinit
