This is not a CentOS-provided kernel; as has been said elsewhere in the thread, 
this is likely an OpenVZ kernel.  Your hosting provider will have to install 
the modules necessary to make this function.  If they either cannot or will 
not, then you can't use the options you want to use.  The CentOS repositories 
and lists are unable to help you with your hosting provider's kernel modules.

Further support may be found either from your provider or from an OpenVZ 
mailing list, but OpenVZ container (VPS) support is beyond the scope of this 
list because it is so different from 'real' CentOS.
