## Connections to the Parallels Cloud Server driver

The libvirt Parallels driver is a single-instance privileged driver, with a driver name of 'parallels'. Some example connection URIs for the libvirt driver are:

    parallels:///system                     (local access)
    parallels+unix:///system                (local access)
    parallels://example.com/system          (remote access, TLS/x509)
    parallels+tcp://example.com/system      (remote access, SASl/Kerberos)
    parallels+ssh://root@example.com/system (remote access, SSH tunnelled)

## Example guest domain XML configuration

Parallels driver require at least one hard disk for new domains at this time. It is used for defining directory, where VM should be created.
