 For those who expressed interest in OpenVZ in the past,

 I've just added a Review Request for vzctl, the OpenVZ control

 As previously said, getting OpenVZ to work with Upstream Linux Kernel
 is a huge and ongoing effort. But with the release of vzctl 4.0,
 Fedora users should already be able to start a container
 with basic networking, and get it running.

 Checkpoint/Restore is expecting to be working (and thus, live
 migration available) by no lator than Fedora 19, and will depend on an
 aditional userspace package to work (to be submitted any time soon)

 Which package(s)?  The criu-tools have already been packaged by Adrian
 Reber, so that's at least one down.


For live migration, that would be enough. I was actually unaware that criu has
been packaged already, so this is very good news.

There are more userspace utilities to land, like vzlist, vzpid, etc,
but those will
be bundled in the vzctl package itself.

 As for actually enabling the kernel config options for CRIU in the
 kernel, we talked about that yesterday at FUDCon.  I need to discuss
 this with the kernel team still, but a tentative idea is to enable it
 in rawhide debug kernels to start with and see how things go from
 there.  That's 3.7 based at the moment.  I've resisted enabling it so
 far because namespaces aren't completed yet and it depends on those.
 It's also hidden behing CONFIG_EXPERT, which I _really_ don't want to
 enable because it makes the kernel configs a mess.


Well, there is a bunch of patches still in flight to give criu the ability to CR
whole containers. But this is moving very fast. =)

I have packaged crtools but not yet submitted for review. I was waiting
until the kernel has enabled the necessary options. Without those
options enabled the package does not make much sense. Once it is enabled
I still plan to submit crtools for review.

Hey, can I interest you in supporting the interfaces listed here with
openvz?

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface

This improves intergration of systemd with the container logic, and
makes sure SELinux doesn't choke on the container, and journalctl -m
on the host works fine.

Thanks,

Lennart

You can submit it for review right away noting that it isn't expected to 
be functional.  Others can review the spec meanwhile.  Work can move 
forward in parallel.  We have done that before.
