Create antlet with smaller disk space
Hi @kryten
No, I don't you are able to remove the Win11 template if you have antlets based on this template (due to zfs dependencies).
We had a script that I had tried posting in the forums but there was an issue with getting the syntax properly formatted.
What I meant is that you can delete other templates that you aren't using (such as CentOS 7 which can take some space) if you see them in the Templates section.
Yes, you can use this command to copy back the original.
cp image.qcow2_backup image.qcow2
Hope that helps.
Thank you,

Thanks Daniel
Not have got most of my space back but the after completing the commands i was only able reduce to 81gb.. even though the windows is still so small... weird
Hi @kryten
Glad to hear that you got most of your space back!
I haven't tried this (mostly because I haven't had any issues with space), but I had found this article about reducing (sparsifying) qcow image below. As recommended earlier, it's important to have copy of qcow2 image before proceeding.
Thanks,

Do you know when we will hear back re building small disk antlets?
Hi @kryten
Our developers said that that our templates are supposed to be using "sparse" images so they shouldn't take too as much space.
For example, the Windows 11 template I created takes around 25GB even though the disk is 100GB.
Are there some other templates that are taking more space than expected?
Thanks,
