Proxmox; Trying Clones and Templates

In this video I will try out both Clones and templates on my Proxmox Cluster. I have reviewed a fair number of tutorials, and have found that many of them, at least to me are not overly clear. Most likely because this is new territory for myself. Since I have never tried this feature out before it should be interesting.

I really appreciate this video. I'm working on my Linux knowledge in general and you seem to have a lot of knowledge/experience to share. Thank you for sharing it. I have a Proxmox server at home and I'm planning to do this kind of thing, but my full time job gets most of my time. At work, we may be moving away from VMWare because of Broadcom's actions so Proxmox or XCP-ng may be in my future. You did a great job of laying all this out and illustrating some of the gotchas. Thanks again.

Thank you for your kind words. It is nice to know that some of my videos are helping people. I can sympathize with the work/home issue. If I was not retired, I probably would not be able to do this.
My next series of videos, I plan to lay out reasons to switch from Windows to Linux, reasons why one would want to stay on Windows, and other alternatives (like dual booting). And for those that want to switch, I will be laying out some of the pain points to watch out for.
Again, thank you for your words. It reminds me of why I am doing these videos.

@@retiredtechie Sounds like a great series. We are doing more and more with Linux systems at work. I'm hoping to experiment with an Ubuntu server or TrueNAS to offload some backup archive files which don't need accessed very often. Some of the things you share help me and others know what is possible. Thanks.
