Hi Jeremy,

I found an old blog post where the author seals the VM manually, see here: https://www.linuxtechi.com/create-vm-template-ovirt-environment/

Please, do not follow this guide since it seems to be a bit outdated. Nonetheless, it might give you a more specific idea about what sealing the template (which is done for you by oVirt) actually entails.

Thank you for your reply Luca,
In general your work flow is helpful and makes sense to me.

I meant to say above- "As part of the template creation process ***the Ovirt docs*** say to seal the VM".

So I think I understand that you need to use both processes (seal template + cloudinit) to get everything to work as desired. I'd still appreciate any more specifics about what sealing a VM does.
