OS template metadata is a set of a few files containing the following information:

  • List of packages that form this OS template
  • Locations of package repositories
  • Scripts needed to be executed on various stages of template installation
  • Public GPG key(s) needed to check signatures of packages
  • Additional OpenVZ-specific packages

Using OS template metadata and vzpkg tools, an OS template cache can be created.
