Setting Up Parallels Virtual Automation

Parallels Virtual Automation is automatically set up on your server during the Parallels Cloud Server installation if you select the Install PVA Agent for Parallels Server and Install PVA Management Node options in the Parallels Cloud Server installer. During the setup procedure, the installer performs the following operations:

1. Installs the PVA Agent component, including Parallels Power Panel, on the server. After that, the server starts acting as the Slave Server.
2. Creates a special Container on the server and installs the PVA Management Server and Control Center components inside the Container. Once the Container is created and the components are installed, the Container starts acting as the Master Server.

   The PVA Management Server and Control Center components cannot be installed directly on a server with Parallels Cloud Server. Instead, a special Container is automatically created during the Parallels Cloud Server installation where these components are installed. Once the setup is complete, you can access the Container by the IP address you entered in the step of specifying PVA parameters in the installer.
