Container Images
----------------
Container images, sometimes also referred to as ``templates'' or
``appliances'', are `tar` archives which contain everything to run a container.
-{pve} itself provides a variety of basic templates for the most common Linux
-distributions. They can be downloaded using the GUI or the `pveam` (short for
-{pve} Appliance Manager) command line utility.
-Additionally, https://www.turnkeylinux.org/[TurnKey Linux] container templates
-are also available to download.

The list of available templates is updated daily through the 'pve-daily-update'
timer. You can also trigger an update manually by executing:
# pct destroy 100 --purge
----
+Move a mount point volume to a different storage.
+
+----
+# pct move-volume 100 mp0 other-storage
+----
+
+Reassign a volume to a different CT. This will remove the volume `mp0` from
+the source CT and attaches it as `mp1` to the target CT. In the background
+the volume is being renamed so that the name matches the new owner.
+
+----
+# pct move-volume 100 mp0 --target-vmid 200 --target-volume mp1
