Configuring Container

The Migrate Physical Server to Container: Configure Container page allows you to configure a Container into which you can migrate your physical server.

Windows When configuring the Container for the migration of a Windows-based server, the only information to provide is the Container ID in the Container Configuration group. You can either opt for selecting the Container ID automatically (the Select Container ID automatically radio button), or assign the Container the ID to fit in your Containers nomenclature. The Container ID is a 32-bit (ranging from 0 to 4294967295) integer number over 100. (Detailed information on the Container IDs allocation can be viewed in the Choosing Container ID subsection of the Parallels Virtuozzo Containers User's Guide.) To enable the feature, select its checkbox.

Linux By default, most Container parameters, such as Container hostname, IP address(es), DNS server(s) and hostname lookup parameters are inherited from the physical server and are displayed on this page in the appropriate fields. By editing these parameters you can apply your own values. Mind though that you do so at your own risk, and if you are not quite expert in the matter, the recommendation is to leave the default settings. On this page you can verify or edit Container general settings that are divided into three groups for your convenience: configuration parameters, network parameters, and advanced parameters.

Linux The Configuration group enables you to perform the following operations:

Linux The Network group lets you do the following to define the network parameters:

Linux The Advanced group helps to specify the Container ID, a 32-bit (ranging from 0 to 4294967295) integer number over 100. (Detailed information on the Container IDs allocation can be viewed in the Choosing Container ID subsection of the Parallels Virtuozzo Containers User's Guide.) To enable the feature, select its checkbox.
