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 +(% id="cke_bm_721114S" style="display:none" %)** **(%%)**clear bash history** to not leave any configuration in history, clear and disable history file before proceeding:
142 +
143 +**qemu-guest-agent** is for allowing proxmox to query information from the VM such as IP address, shutdown commands, etc
144 +
145 +{{code language="bash"}}
146 +sudo apt update

150 +sudo systemctl enable qemu-guest-agent.service
151 +sudo systemctl start qemu-guest-agent.service
152 +{{/code}}
153 +
154 +**reset machine-id** to not have overlapping ids from same template
155 +
156 +{{code language="bash"}}
157 +cat /dev/null > /etc/machine-id
158 +cat /dev/null > /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
159 +{{/code}}
160 +
161 +**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
