1. Create a template disk in the datacenter. This disk should be prepared with the most up-to-date version of Windows Server along with any prerequisites needed for the Shielded VM. 2. Copy the template disk to the storage cluster in the datacenter that will host the Shielded VM. 3. Create a Shielded VM in the cluster and attach the template disk. 4. Configure the appropriate security settings for the Shielded VM, such as Trusted Platform Module (TPM) protections, at launch. 5. Install and configure any additional applications or workloads onto the Shielded VM as needed. 6. Once you’re done configuring the Shielded VM, detach the template disk and delete it from the storage cluster. The template disk is no longer needed and should be permanently removed to prevent misuse.
