Quick Start: Using Template as Base for All LXCs
Last Updated: 2026-01-31
Document Version: 1.0
Status: Active Documentation
Step 1: Choose Your Base Template
Run the template script to see available options:
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/tools/addon/all-templates.sh)"
Or list available templates directly:
pveam available | grep -E "debian|ubuntu|alpine"
Step 2: Download the Template (Once)
For example, Debian 12:
pveam download local debian-12-standard_12.2-1_amd64.tar.zst
This downloads the template to your local storage. You only need to do this once.
Step 3: Set Template Variable
Create or update your configuration file with:
# In your deployment config file or .env
export CONTAINER_OS_TEMPLATE="local:vztmpl/debian-12-standard_12.2-1_amd64.tar.zst"
Step 4: Deploy Multiple Containers
Now you can deploy as many containers as needed from this single template:
# Container 1 - Web Server
pct create 100 "$CONTAINER_OS_TEMPLATE" \
--hostname web1 \
--memory 2048 \
--cores 2 \
--rootfs local-lvm:20 \
--net0 name=eth0,bridge=vmbr0,ip=dhcp \
--unprivileged 1
# Container 2 - Database
pct create 101 "$CONTAINER_OS_TEMPLATE" \
--hostname db1 \
--memory 4096 \
--cores 4 \
--rootfs local-lvm:50 \
--net0 name=eth0,bridge=vmbr0,ip=dhcp \
--unprivileged 1
# Container 3 - App Server
pct create 102 "$CONTAINER_OS_TEMPLATE" \
--hostname app1 \
--memory 2048 \
--cores 2 \
--rootfs local-lvm:30 \
--net0 name=eth0,bridge=vmbr0,ip=dhcp \
--unprivileged 1
Step 5: Start Containers
pct start 100
pct start 101
pct start 102
Benefits
✅ One template, unlimited containers - Download once, deploy many times
✅ Storage efficient - Template is reused, only differences are stored
✅ Consistent base - All containers start from the same clean OS
✅ Easy updates - Update template, all new containers get updates
✅ Fast deployment - No need to download template for each container
Your Current Setup
Your deployment scripts already use this pattern! Check:
smom-dbis-138-proxmox/scripts/deployment/deploy-services.shsmom-dbis-138-proxmox/config/proxmox.conf.example
They use: CONTAINER_OS_TEMPLATE="${CONTAINER_OS_TEMPLATE:-local:vztmpl/debian-12-standard_12.2-1_amd64.tar.zst}"
This means:
- If
CONTAINER_OS_TEMPLATEis set, use it - Otherwise, default to Debian 12 standard template
Next Steps
- Set your template in your config file
- Download it once:
pveam download local debian-12-standard_12.2-1_amd64.tar.zst - Deploy containers using your deployment scripts - they'll automatically use the template!
