Overview
Softaculous Virtualizor supports the remote creation of Virtual Machines / VPS. Blesta can be configured to create the VPS as soon as you accept the Order (Automatically or Manually). We provide a module for Blesta to enable you to do so. Setting it up is really easy. You can create, delete, suspend and many more operation on VPS with this module.
In the new version of the module we have included the End User panel of Virtualizor so that the End Users can manage their VPS from Blesta only and they do not need to login to Virtualizor Panel. Everything can be done right from Blesta itself.
Note: This module version 2 requires Virtualizor 2.8.0+ on the master.
The existing plans created on "Blesta Module Version 1" will be backward compatible

Module Options
The fields are self explanatory, but the following is a detailed explanation :
- Type : The Virtualization type of the server you added.
- Select Plan : Select the Plan that you have created on your Virtualizor Panel.
- Server Groups : Select Server Group or Node Group on which the vps needs to be created.
- OS : The OS field is the List of Operating System Templates on your server. Virtualizor provides templates to its users. Its a COMMA separated value. This will allow the USER to choose the OS when he is signing up for the VPS. Also the list should not have the template suffix of tar.gz, img, etc. e.g. centos-7-x86_64.tar.gz should be centos-7-x86_64 in the OS List. Basically the module does a name match of the OS Template.
