I create a custom template and then save and convert the backup tar.gz but impossible to create the container ..

 

[dcsapak]

is the file really gzip'ed ?
can you post the output of:

file <your-backup-file>

?

 

[Othmane]

And i convert in tar.gz but not work..

 

[dcsapak]

And i convert in tar.gz but not work..

how did you convert?

 

[Othmane]

By renaming the file from my filezilla software I renamed to tar.gz

 

[Othmane]

Then I move it to / var / lib / vz / template / cache

 

[Othmane]

Before when I proceed like that, it works well, but since a few updates everything has broken!

By renaming the file from my filezilla software I renamed to tar.gz

renaming a file is not converting, leave the extension like it is, then it should work

 

[Othmane]

So the backup file "tar.lzo" can I use it as template lxc?

 

[Othmane]

I want to use the backup file as template lxc ...

 

[Othmane]

Why I want to create a lxc backup then convert to a template, because I want to customize the lxc template to enable SSH by default then edit the welcome file / etc / motd, then create a backup and convert to template, but you had me says to leave the default backup file and use it as template, but I can not create a container with a backup file.

 

[dcsapak]

you can restore the backup to another vmid and change the settings,
or you can move the template file to /var/lib/vz/template/cache

you can also directly backup to tar.gz when you choose 'gzip' instead of 'lzo'
