# Managing Plesk Domains

In This Chapter Setting Up Trial Plesk Domains Creation

Plesk is comprehensive Virtual or Physical Webserver management software formally known as Plesk Server Administrator (PSA). For more information about Plesk, please see on the Web.

HSPcomplete allows:

- Establishing connection with Plesk boxes by means of the simple registration of Plesk Hardware Node in the HSPcomplete.
- Creating and selling Plesk hosting plans.
- Accepting and processing orders on Plesk services using the HSPcomplete billing.
- Provisioning Plesk services on Plesk servers.

Connection to Plesk nodes is established via the special agent software - Plesk Agent. Thus, before registering the Plesk node in HSPcomplete, it is necessary to install the Plesk Agent to a Plesk node. And when you register a Plesk node in HSPcomplete, you need to specify the URL to the Plesk Agent on the Plesk node you are registering (like http://plesk_node_hostname/path_to _plesk_agent) and the Plesk node administrator's password.

Customers that have subscribed on Plesk hosting at your shop get the HSPcomplete Control Panel to manage their domains, but with the Plesk functionality and real access to the Plesk server. And customers subscriptions can be managed from the Control Center using the HSPcomplete billing (renewal settings, paying orders, putting subscription on hold, notifications, etc.).

You can set up the conditions both the trial VEs and backup settings on per Hardware Node basis. To this effect, go to the Operations Director - Infrastructure Manager - Setup - Trial Plesk.
