Remember my last post about cpu masking ? Well, turns out that you can do it to a “template”.
The only point you don’t need to do, is to mark the VM as a " template". You still can clone it and move it around and all that other stuff, but the good part is, that the cloned VM keeps the cpu mask set to the " template" 🤷
I don’t know, why VMware didn’t include that feature into the templates, since it’s a real freaky way to do.
