If you use the Parallels Virtuozzo Containers servers at your Data Center, you can successfully install Parallels Business Automation - Standard in one of Virtuozzo Containers. In this guide, we describe the installation only in general.
Note: Please, refer to the Parallels Virtuozzo Containers user documentation for detailed information about any aspects connected with Parallels Virtuozzo Containers installation and Containers creation.
During installation, the Parallels Business Automation - Standard installer attempts to enable firewall for a Container you are installing Parallels Business Automation - Standard on. Any previous firewall configurations are rewritten. The default firewall configuration allows connection for the following ports only: SSH, POP3(S), HTTP(S), SMTP, BIND. To successfully enable firewall, the installer needs the iptable_filter and ipt_state modules loaded.
The needed iptables modules will be loaded to Containers only in case they are also loaded on a server that hosts a Container.
To load the needed iptables modules the vzctl command can be used. Loading a new set of iptables modules does not happen on the fly. You should restart the Container for the changes to take effect.
To install Parallels Business Automation - Standard in Virtuozzo Container:
Note 1: You can select any numerical identifier for the Management Node Container. However, we recommend to select the ID within the so-called "service" range from 10 up to 99 (better 99 and lower) to avoid unintentional corruption of Management Node Container from Parallels Business Automation - Standard tools, since Containers with IDs within the service range are not visible from the Parallels Business Automation - Standard web-based interface.
Note 2: After you select the Management Container ID, please do not forget to rename the configuration file shipped with Parallels Business Automation - Standard into the VE_ID.conf where the VE_ID should be replaced with the actual numerical ID of the Management Node Container.
