On a closed connected oriented manifold
M
we study the space
M
‖
(
M
)
of all Riemannian metrics which admit a non-zero parallel spinor on the universal covering. Such metrics are Ricci-flat, and all known Ricci-flat metrics are of this form. We show the following: The space
M

(
M

is a smooth submanifold of the space of all metrics and its premoduli space is a smooth finite-dimensional manifold. The holonomy group is locally constant on

. If
M
is spin, then the dimension of the space of parallel spinors is a locally constant function on
