prlctl create {ctid} --vmtype ct --ostemplate ubuntu-14.04-x86_64

The first time you create a container from an EZ template you haven't used 
before, it'll build it by downloading all of the packages, extracting them to a 
build directory, and then compressing that into a disk image... and that is 
added to the OS Template cache... from which it creates your new container 
from.  Subsquent container creations will see it the ready-to-use OS Template 
in the cache dir... although you can refresh the OS Template wheneve desired as 
new updates appear.

OpenVZ operated the same way in the first couple of years... but vzpkg 
bitrotted with changes in Python and got discontinued.

After the container is created then you can prlctl set whatever config 
parameters you need.

TYL,
