qm-create: Specify the type of operating system on the machine.
$ qm create ${100} --ostype ${win10}
try on your machine

This command is using the "qm" tool to create a virtual machine in a virtualization environment.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • "qm" is a command-line tool used in Proxmox Virtual Environment (PVE) for managing virtual machines.
  • "create" is the specific action being performed by the "qm" command, indicating that a new virtual machine is being created.
  • "${100}" is a placeholder for the desired ID or number for the new virtual machine. It is a variable that needs to be replaced with an actual number when executing the command.
  • "--ostype" is an option used to specify the operating system type for the new virtual machine.
  • "${win10}" is another placeholder for the desired operating system type. It is a variable that needs to be replaced with the actual operating system type when executing the command. In this case, it seems that "${win10}" is used to represent the Windows 10 operating system.

Overall, this command creates a new virtual machine with a specific ID and sets the operating system type to Windows 10.
