When I create a template VM, I usually configure its hardware to have a direct internet connection (to download updates) via NAT and give it a bit more RAM (eg 4 GB) to be able to run faster. Creating the template VMįirst, you’ll need to create the VM to use as a template by following the steps we have described in a previous article. Since my virtual lab consists of Windows VMs, the VM template will be based on Windows Server 2016. Using this VM template, you will be able to create ‘clean’ clones of the template to speed up the process of adding new VMs to the virtual lab. In today’s article, you’ll see how to create a Windows VM template on VMware Workstation which will be the basis for all the other VMs you will create from now on. In a small lab consisting of 1-2 servers this may be unnecessary, however, as the lab expands with more servers then we need to save time when adding new VMs. Creating a new Windows VM is a time-consuming process as you need to create the VM, install the operating system, and then install all available updates. ![]()
