139 +After creating the VM and before making it into a template there are some programs and settings we want to ensure exists always.
140 +
141 +**qemu-guest-agent** is for allowing proxmox to query information from the VM such as IP address, shutdown commands, etc
142 +
143 +{{code language="bash"}}
144 +sudo apt update
145 +sudo apt upgrade -y
146 +sudo apt install qemu-guest-agent -y

148 +sudo systemctl enable qemu-guest-agent.service
149 +sudo systemctl start qemu-guest-agent.service
150 +{{/code}}

152 +**reset machine-id** to not have overlapping ids from same template
153 +
154 +{{code language="bash"}}
155 +cat /dev/null > /etc/machine-id
156 +cat /dev/null > /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
157 +{{/code}}
158 +
159 +**clear bash history** to not leave any configuration in history
160 +
161 +
162 +**cloud-init** is a great hook for installing or configuring programs or receiving variables from cloudinit CDROM drive. Making it easier to change IP, hostname, DNS, username/password, etc between VMs
163 +
164 +{{code language="bash"}}
