Parallels Installer options

To know more about options related to upgrading already installed Panel or the host operating system, issue the following command:

parallels_installer –help

By default, the installer saves the retrieved files in the directory /[current user name]/psa. For instance, if the installer was executed by user root, the /root/psa directory will be created and used. If you want to use a custom directory for storing the retrieved files, use the –target option.

Example:

–target /opt/storage/psa
