It would be nice to have some examples of the suitable XML for running
a parallels container shown here too. That can be done as a later follow
up patch though. No need to change this patch though - I'm happy to see
it as a later addon patch.

Hmm, perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but isn't Parallels a container
based technology like OpenVZ, rather than full machine virtualization ?
For containers we use 'exe' as the os type rather than 'hvm', and
I'd
expect the arch + bit count to match the host OS.
Parallels Cloud Server uses the same interface for both
containers and virtual machines management, where it's
possible, I've decided to start writing support of VMs.
I hope then it's possible to make driver which supports
both types of virtualization and going to do it later.

How do connections from parallels work from an end user POV ?
Is there is a single parallels service for the whole machine
which all users connect to, or does each user have their own
private service they work with.
If the former, I think it'd be preferable for the URI to be
either simple
parallels:///
Or
parallels:///system
to have a bit closer alignment with the naming we use with
LXC / QEMU / OpenBVZ.
If the latter, then I'd suggest parallels:///session to
indicate its tied to a per-user account/session.
Each user in system has it's own set of virtual machines,
I agree to change URI to parallels://system

For this I reckon you basically want to return the version of the parallels
software.
Yes, there are no problems with fixing it now.

You can just return '0' here, and rather than reporting an error,
you want to just log a VIR_DEBUG statement I reckon, since you
don't want to cause initialization of libvirt as a whole to fail
just because parallels isn't installed.
OK, I can go it in separate patch.

If you can either answer my questions or address them, I'd ACK this now.
