3.0 Create a VM

---

If the ISO is not already available in the existing catalog of ISO Images, you must download it.  Please do look first, to see if it is already there.

1. Download ISO images of VMs you'd like to virtualize:
   • Ubuntu Server
   • Ubuntu Desktop
   • Windows Desktop
2. Upload ISOs to Proxmox
   • Click on a node > local (node name) > ISO Images > Upload

     You will have to repeat the upload on each node you have

3. Create a new Ubuntu Server VM on the Proxmox server
   • Create a VM on the top right of the Proxmox GUI
   • Allocate enough resources (i.e. CPU, storage, memory, etc.) for your use case
