Number of Hardware node registration

[john_accu]

Does number of hardware nodes registration in a virtuozzo depends on the virtuozzo license?

You mean to say hardware node registration in virtuozzo management console ?

Hardware nodes are not registered in Virtuozzo, on the contrary, Virtuozzo is installed on a hardware node to manage the VPS Hosting' which are created on it.

The number of VPS Hosting' which can be created on a node depends on the Virutozzo license you have.

I mean how many hardware nodes I can create in one virtuozzo? Does it depends on virtuozzo license?

Also, if I want to manage 5 hardware nodes from one virtozzo then is it essansial that virtuozzo should be installed on EACH hardware nodes?

Thanks,

You won't be able to manage 5 nodes with single virtuozzo. Virtuozzo must be installed on each node (Server) with separate license.

Yes, it is essential for Virtuozzo to be installed on all the hardware nodes you want to manage, also, separate licenses are required for EACH server, which are in term based on some specific unique hardware IDs, which makes them utterly unique

Virtuozzo license depends on the following parameters:

• Unique Hardware ID (HWID) of the server which is calculated according to the motherboard and network adapter unique identifiers.
• Maximum number of VEs allowed to be started simultaneously.
• Start date and end date.
• CPU power.

There's no chance of hacking/cracking these licenses, as that may result into a malfunction of the complete application
OpenVZ, which is free, can be considered for Virtualization technologies though...
