Installing License Key

On this screen you may select the Hardware Node on which you want to install the license and review your license details: the license usage environment and the conditions of usage.

To select the Node, click the icon next to the Hardware Node field in the Install License to section.

The License General Information section displays the following information about the Virtuozzo Server license (or Virtuozzo Hardware Node license):

Column Name

Description

Key Number

The license key number. This is a unique identifier of the license on the Parallels KA server.

Class

The license type (the current version of the Virtuozzo Containers software makes use of Virtuozzo Hardware Node licenses only).

Expiration

The expiration date and time of the license.

The Extended Information section provides the following information on the license:

Column Name

Description

Architectures

Microprocessor architecture(s) suggested by the license.

Backup management allowed

If your license includes backup management, this enables you to schedule backups of certain Containers and assign a Virtuozzo Group Hardware Node, other than the one which hosts the Container to be backed up, to store the backup.

Grace period

The period during which the Virtuozzo Containers software continues functioning after your license has expired, in seconds.

Key number value

The main component of the license key number that is placed between the two dots.

Key number version

The last part of the license key number that is placed after the second dot.

License version

The version of the license (the same as the version of the Virtuozzo Containers software).

Number of Containers

The total number of Containers you can simultaneously run on the Hardware Node.

Number of CPUs

The total number of central processor units installed on the Hardware Node. A dual core CPU or a CPU with Hyper Threading technology is a single CPU; only CPU sockets are regarded as CPUs.

Number of Parallels Management Console users

The number of users able to simultaneously connect to the Node through Parallels Management Console.

Parallels Agent allowed

Indicates if the license allows to use the Parallels Agent functionality.

Parallels Infrastructure Manager allowed

Indicates if the license allows to use Parallels Infrastructure Manager.

Parallels Power Panel allowed

Indicates if the license allows to manage Containers by means of Parallels Power Panel.

Platform

The operating system installed on the Hardware Node

Product key

The string of symbols that serves for both activating the license and as an identifier of the license on the Hardware Node.

Products

Indicates that this is the Virtuozzo Containers technology that the license applies to.

 

 

Workflow management allowed

Indicates if the license allows Container requesting.

The Hardware Node selected and the license information reviewed, you can install it to the Node by clicking the Install button. This will either install the key directly on your Node, or send it to the Parallels licensing server, which, in turn, will generate a license file, send it back to the Hardware Node the product key has been sent from, and install it on this Hardware Node.

If, for some reasons, the Hardware Node is not connected to the Internet at the moment of sending the product key, Parallels Infrastructure Manager displays a message informing you of the fact and containing an installation ID and URL. You will need to use this URL on any computer connected to the Internet to open the Web page where you will be able to manually enter the installation ID and send it to the Parallels server. The server will generate a key file to be either sent to your email address or saved on the disk of the computer that sent the installation ID. For this key file to be installed on the Hardware Node, save it on its hard disk (or make it available from there, whatever way you think to be expedient) and upload it on the Hardware Node.
