Considering Parallels for Windows.

[M.I.T.K]

Hello,

I am looking at growing my current hosting product and add Windows Hosting. Looking around it seems that Parallels has a very good product but I had a few questions to see if I can integrate Parallels for Windows in my current setup.

1) Is there tips for optimization?
2) I am currently running a cpanel environment with 4 main DNS servers for all of my application boxes, can parallels be setup to use and add to my current DNS or would I need to create new name servers for the windows side?
3) With Parallels, can I setup a multi node cluster. One box being SQL, the other being a Mail server and maybe a third being the application server?
4) Is there a way to limit resource usage for a site so it doesn’t pin the entire server?
5) Is there any sites you would recommend for research or more forum information about your product?
