Create custom container template in proxmox

To create custom container template in proxmox use:

1. Take a backup of container in gzip format. Ideally when container is stopped
2. SSH to proxmox base machine and move container backup to template folder using:

   mv /var/lib/vz/dump/<backup-name>.tar.gz /var/lib/vz/template/cache/<template-name>.tar.gz

3. Now it should be possible to use this template to create new containers.
