Managing Virtual Environments 38

3 In the New Containers: Setup screen, specify the new Container name and the

Virtuozzo OS template to be applied to create a Container.

It is also recommended to specify the administrative password at this point, so that

you won't have to do this later. The default username for the administrator of the

Containers with the Windows and Linux operating system will be Administrator and

root respectively. Besides setting up the administrator credentials, you can make up

a list of users who will be able to manage the Container and define their

administration privileges in the Permissions section.

In this window, you can also configure a number of advanced settings found in the

following sections:

 Advanced Configuration section lists several customization options and advanced

functions you can enable.

 Terminal Services section enables you to define in which Windows TS mode

(Remote Desktop for Administration and Terminal Server) the Container will

operate and which licenses it will use.

 Offline Management section enables you to define the services that will be

available even when the physical server hosting your Container is down.

When finished, click Next to define the network settings, or click Create to apply the

default settings and create the Container.

4 In the New Containers: Network Configuration screen, provide the connection

information that will be used for connecting to the new Container, such as the

Container hostname and its IP address. Click Next.

5 In the New Containers: Resources Customization screen, adjust the advanced settings

concerning the Container CPU, memory and operating system parameters. Since

setting up these values is quite a challenging task, you can use the default settings.

Note: If you'd like to learn more about the advanced options, you can click the

Help button in the upper right-hand corner of the window, or see Parallels

Virtual Automation Administrator's Guide.
