Setting General Options

You can configure the general options of a Parallels server in the General pane of the Server Settings dialog. To open this pane, select the server in the Parallels Management Console sidebar, and choose Edit Settings from the Server menu.

Specifying General Options

In the General pane, you can do the following:

  • In the Custom Name field, configure the server name. This name is displayed in the Parallels Management Console sidebar and used to uniquely identify the server among other registered servers.
