TL;DR

virt-sysprep

Reset, unconfigure, or customize a virtual machine image. More information: https://manned.org/virt-sysprep.

  • List all supported operations (enabled operations are indicated with asterisks):

virt-sysprep --list-operations

  • Run all enabled operations but don’t actually apply the changes:

virt-sysprep --domain vm_name --dry-run

  • Run only the specified operations:

virt-sysprep --domain vm_name --operations operation1,operation2,...

  • Generate a new /etc/machine-id file and enable customizations to be able to change the host name to avoid network conflicts:

virt-sysprep --domain vm_name --enable customizations --hostname host_name --operation machine-id
