The transition procedure implements the so-called 'co-existence' scenario. It means that Exchange 2007 and HMC 4.0 are deployed into the same Active Directory domain as Exchange 2003 and HMC 3.5. Both Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007 function at the same time and hosted organizations are moved from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007 gradually. POA 2.8 Deployment Guide > Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007 Transition Provisioning All Mailboxes of Subscription to the Same Mail Store POA 2.8 features a new activation parameter "Provisioning mailbox of a subscription to the same mail store" for Hosted Exchange resource, with possible values of 0 and 1. Setting this parameter to 1 forces the system to select for a new mailbox the same mail store as for a previously provisioned mailbox within the same Subscription. Note, that this does not imply automated migration of already provisioned mailboxes to a new store. POA 2.8 Provider's Guide > POA Hosted Exchange > Hosted Exchange Activation Parameters NAT Support for Exchange Since POA 2.8, Hosted Exchange supports Network Address Translation rules (NAT). POA 2.8 Provider's Guide > Managing Hardware Nodes > NAT Support for POA Services
12 Parallels Operations Automation 2.8 Parallels Integration with External AS/AV Mail Gateway POA 2.8 allows protecting Exchange infrastructure by filtering incoming and outgoing SMTP traffic with an external AS/AV gateway deployed in front of Exchange 2007 Hub Transport servers.

C H A P T E R 2 Functional Changes POA Agent VPS Removed In the previous versions of POA the Agent VPS have been used to perform the management tasks for VPS Hardware Node. Starting with version 2.8, POA manages VPS Hardware Node directly, and POA Agent VPS is not longer supported. POA 2.8 Provider's Guide > VPS Hosting in POA > Managing VPS Hardware Node > Registering New VPS Hardware Nodes POA 2.8 Deployment Guide > Common Operations > Registering Linux-based VPS Hardware Nodes POA 2.8 Deployment Guide > Common Operations > Registering Windows-based VPS Hardware Nodes Ability to Upsell Plesk to VPS Hosting Subscription POA 2.8 allows Providers to upsell Plesk hosting as an additional VPS hosting service. Provider's Guide > VPS Hosting in POA > Parallels Plesk Control Panel in VPS Hosting QMail Performance Improvements Clustered QMail in POA 2.8 features the queue processing performance of 35%-65% better than in previous versions of POA. This improvement has been achieved by keeping the LDAP server connection open and reusing it for the subsequent requests.
Functional Changes 17 Note, that LDAP server can drop a connection in case it is idle for too long and prevent this feature from being effectively used. Therefore providers are recommended to configure their LDAP servers so the idle timeout is not less than 60 seconds. OpenLDAP instances shipped with the POA 2.8 are configured with infinite timeout by default. POA 2.8 Deployment Guide > Deploying Linux Mail Hosting > Deploying Clustered Qmail Service > Installing LDAP Server > Manual Installation IMP Webmail Client Improvements POA 2.8 features the following improvements for IMP Webmail Client (Horde): Single IMP Webmail Client instance can be used for serving all Qmail servers. In case the imp.dns_resolve property of the IMP Webmail Client is set to true, it will resolve the 'domain' part of a user login name against the DNS for the responsible mail servers and use them for IMAP/SMTP mail processing. Note, that this works under assumption that the user IMAP mailboxes are located on the same server as registered in MX record. MySQL 5 support was added. POA 2.8 Deployment Guide > Deploying Linux Mail Hosting > Deploying Webmail Service > Installing IMP Webmail Client (Horde) > Installation Requirements for IMP Webmail Client Removed Support of RHEL3 OS for POA Management Node POA 2.8 does not longer support the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (RHEL3) OS as a platform for deploying a Linux-based POA Management Node. Support of Localized Versions of Windows for VPS Hosting POA 2.8 supports localized versions of Windows (i.e. Windows in languages other than English) in VPS. It is also possible to import existing VPS with localized version of Windows into POA.
18 Parallels Operations Automation 2.8 Parallels Third-Party Software Maintenance POA 2.8 supports an updated list of multiple 3rd-party packages, as listed below: PHP 5.2.5 for Windows Shared Hosting PostgreSQL ODBC Driver PgSQL 08.02.0500 for Windows Shared Hosting MySQL ODBC Driver 3.51.23 for Windows Shared Hosting Parallels Plesk Sitebuilder 4.5 for Windows Shared Hosting BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1 SP 6 for Windows Shared Hosting ISAPI_Rewrite 3.1 for Windows Shared Hosting Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 SP1 Ability to Modify Windows Mobile Device Auto- Configuration Template POA 2.8 allows to customize the default ActiveSync configuration settings on Windows Mobile Device by modifying the Auto-Configuration Template. User-Defined Language Display Names POA 2.8 allows customizing the Language display names - the names under which the languages are displayed for selection at the POA login screen. POA 2.8 Provider's Guide > Managing Accounts > Configuring Your Account > Managing Language Packs > Changing Locale Language Name. Improved Behavior of PHP, Sendmail and Form Mail (ID) In POA 2.8 the sendmail_from parameter in the PHP configuration file php.ini is now set to null by default on Windows hosts. In case of delivery failure, the e-mails sent as a result of filling web forms on sites are returned to senders (to the addresses specified in the From field on the form), instead of bouncing to the address specified in the php.ini file.
Functional Changes 19 Ability to Deactivate Plesk Sitebuilder Branding After a Plesk Sitebuilder server is registered in POA, the system automatically creates a reseller account in Plesk Sitebuilder for each newly created brand. Formerly, when deleting a Plesk Sitebuilder from POA, this was an obstacle - POA produced an exception since there were Plesk Sitebuilder users registered on the server. Now it is possible to deactivate Plesk Sitebuilder branding for all brands registered in POA, in case the brands' owners have no underlying customer Subscriptions with Plesk Sitebuilder included. After that you can successfully delete a Plesk Sitebuilder server.

Starting with POA 2.8 the log files are stored in the same Logs folder, but a separate log file is created for each website with the name svc<site_id>_ex<date>.log, where: <site_id> is the website identifier in the IIS metabase. <date> is the time stamp of the log file in format YYMMDD. For monthly cycles the <date> value is specified in a format YYMM.

22 Parallels Operations Automation 2.8 Parallels POA 2.8 allows to limit the number of VPS backup/restore operations performed simultaneously on a single VPS Hardware Node (in range 1 to 4). This limit is set systemwide and applies to all VPS Hardware Nodes registered in POA. When the limit on simultaneous operations is reached, further backup/restore tasks initiated from the VPS Hardware Node are queued. It is strongly recommended to leave this parameter in its default value (1).
