Stories similar to KDE and VNC server inside OpenVZ Container

An openvz container can be stopped with

vzctl stop <id>

, but this needs the cooperation from the init inside the container. In case a container is compromised a way is needed to stop the container withouts its cooperation. Something like a

vzctl kill <id>

is needed which kills all processes inside the container and puts it into the stopped state.

I'm running nginx in a OpenVZ container on Debian 6 and when proxying I get truncated responses. Most of the time it happens when I proxy another proxy like varnish or apache (for svn servers).

Our office is using a Proxmox Virtual Environment (v. 1.9) to run servers. It is capable of running either OpenVZ templates or full KVM installations.

After an initial attempt and failure to successfully install software for evaluation in an Ubuntu 12.04 server running as an OpenVZ container, I decided to try installing it in a "normal" server installation in VirtualBox on my laptop.

OpenVZ: Mounting Host Devices/Partitions/Directories In A Container With Bind Mounts (Debian/Ubuntu)

Sometimes you are in a situation where you need to mount a hard drive, partiiton or directory from the OpenVZ host inside an OpenVZ container - for example, you add a fast SSD to the host and want to put your container's MySQL databases on it to make MySQL faster.

I have a OpenVZ container running Debian 6 on my server. After every restart of the container I have to manually start the Apache2 web server using its init script. In the error log I can't find any useful information.

Every suggestion is appreciated :-).

How to use a backup in OpenVZ 16 weeks 6 days ago

I have issues running Ubuntu 11.04 x86 VPS (container) on OpenVZ node.

For OpenVZ, an implementation of container-based virtualization, it seems that host and all guests are sharing the filesystem cache. This sounds paradoxical when talking about virtualization, but this is actually a feature of OpenVZ.

It makes sense too. Because only one kernel is running, it's possible to benefit from sharing the same pages of filesystem cache in memory.

I talkt with falconindy, because i got the same problem so there is the fix (workaround). I know falconindy don't like override permission by udev, but maybe OpenVZ Container need this. If i had time, maybe i will look deeper in it.Problem was upgrade from udev v182-4 to systemd-tools v184-2, because of removing the following line.
