Parallels Infrastructure Manager enables you to install, update, and uninstall rpm and deb packages in Containers based on EZ OS templates.
Note: The Container you want to manage software packages in has to be running.
You can obtain the information on the packages currently installed in the Container in the Installed Packages table, presented as follows:
Column Name |
Description |
Name |
The name of the package. |
Epoch |
Indicates the version of a deb package or the version of an rpm package in case the version of the rpm package is not available. |
Version |
The version of an rpm package. |
Arch |
The processor architecture; if the column shows the "noarch" value, the packet is likely to be either non-executable or contain documentation. |
Summary |
A short description of the package. |
Status |
Shows if there is a fresher version of the package: Up-to-date or Update Found. |
The Installed Packages table displays from 10 up to 80 packages; the default number is 20 and can be changed by clicking 10, 40, or 80 on top of the table. To see the next portion of packages, click either the number of the page next to the one you are having at the moment, or next (or last, to view the last page).
If the status of a package in the Installed Packages table suggests that an update is available, you can select this package and click the Update link on the Infrastructure Manager toolbar. To update all those packages that you can see on the page, select the uppermost checkbox and click Update. If you need to run update for all the packages installed in the Container, do not select anything - simply click the Update All icon on the Infrastructure Manager toolbar.
To uninstall a package, select it (or select the uppermost checkbox to uninstall all the packages listed on the page), and click Uninstall.
The Virtuozzo Containers software can query the repository where the packages for your distribution are stored for new packages available for downloading and install them in your Container. To connect to the repository, fetch a list of the packages, see the packages description, and download and install in your Container the packages you need, click Install Packages on the Infrastructure Manager toolbar.
