An Anschluss 1 hängen drei SAS-HD mit Raid5 und an Anschluss 2 hängen 2 SATA-HD mit Raid1. Die Hardware stellt dem...

`qm template`: what does it _do_? what makes a template different from a (k)vm? Details I see references to how running `qm template [vm_number]` creates a template that makes future (linked or full) cloning better, more-efficient. But... what does `qm template` do to the (k)vm? (A bit of...
