Working with Operating System Templates
OS Template Naming Convention
Only lowercase letters and hyphens are used in template names.
Sticking to this convention is essential so the application can correctly categorize and sort templates.
<os>
Do not include hyphens in the <os> portion.
<key><number>
Examples:
centos8
debian12
win10
ubuntu2404
ubuntu2204
<template>
<os>-template-v<number>
Examples:
debian12-template-v21
ubuntu2204-template-v17
kali-template-v2
<dd4w>
dd4w-tpl-lxc-<os>-v<number>
dd4w-tpl-kvm-<os>-v<number>
Examples:
Must start with 'dd4w-'
Examples:
dd4w-tpl-kvm-win10-v5
dd4w-tpl-lxc-ubuntu2204-v2
Distribution
Here, you can copy, remove, or compare every OS template available in your cloud environment. Keep in mind that moving many templates at once can impact your server’s network performance and overall experience. Ideally, schedule copy jobs outside peak hours.
Batch Deletion of OS Templates
A newly added feature lets you delete templates from multiple servers simultaneously. What used to be a slow, manual chore is now quick and effortless.
- Simply select a server that has the template you need, and choose 'Remove from .. ' (the 'Remove' option only removes a single template at a time)
- Only servers that contain that particular template appear in a list.
- Check the boxes for the servers from which you want to delete the template.
-
Click 'Submit' and confirm – the templates will then be removed.
