Working with Templates

This chapter describes creating and importing templates. A template is a golden image of a virtual machine that can be used as a master copy to create and provision new virtual machines. This chapter contains the following sections:

VirtualCenter catalogs and manages the templates. VirtualCenter displays a list of available templates with a name and a brief description. The templates can be stored in a template upload directory, which is a directory local to the VirtualCenter server, or on a SAN VMFS volume.

You need to use a Virtual Machine Administrator role that has permission on the farm to which the host belongs.
