Rename Parallels Cloud Server to Virtuozzo
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/rename-pcs-to-virtuozzo
Problem description
Within Parallels company rebranding, Parallels Cloud Server product, whose support was merged in Kilo, was renamed to Virtuozzo1. Moreover, Parallels Service provider business was renamed and became Odin2. Thus, there was no Parallels name left for this product.
We need to address this change in nova/libvirt driver accordingly to avoid confusion of users and make things be actual.
It is worth noting though, that Virtuozzo is based on opensource and free OpenVz project and supporting Virtuozzo means supporting OpenVz also.
Use Cases
Project Priority
No priority defined for this change yet.
Proposed change
Libvirt section in nova.conf will change virt_type from
parallels to vz. We set minimal required
version of libvirt to work with vz virt_type to 1.3.0 since
it is the first version that supports 'vz' uri. The code will hold both
names: parallels and vz for next release
cycle. In M release cycle there should be left only
vz.
Alternatives
We can leave it as is and have parallels virt_type but
this approach will leave confusion for user forever.

Performance Impact
None
Other deployer impact
Deployer can use libvirt virt_type parallels in Liberty
release cycle, but will have to switch to vz in next
M release. This action is going to be fulfilled by
Virtuozzo deployment system.
Developer impact
