Create Instance
To create an instance use the following command:
qm create <VMID> --name <VM's name> --agent 1 --bootdisk scsi0 --cores <#of CPU cores> --memory <RAM memory in MB> --net0 <network interface> --ostype l26 --scsi0 <storage name:$VMID/$VMID-disk.qcow2,size=56G> --scsihw virtio-scsi-pci --sockets <number of sockets>
where the following in 'qm create' command needs to be set the following values:
--bootdisk scsi0--ostype l26--scsi0 Disk Fomat to 'qcow2', Disk Size to 56G--scsihw virtio-scsi-pci
mkdir <value set for --scsi0 which is path to VM storage name:$VMID>
Example
qm create 117 --name qualys-scanner-cli --agent 1 --bootdisk scsi0 --cores 2 --memory 4096 --net0 virtio,bridge=vmbr0 --ostype l26 --scsi0 local:117/vm-117-disk-0.qcow2,size=56G --scsihw virtio-scsi-pci --sockets 1
mkdir /var/lib/vz/images/117
