[Users] OpenVz6 kernel rebase to kernel-2.6.32-754.17.1.el6 will be skipped

2019-07-02 Thread Vasily Averin
Dear OpenVz users,
Red Hat released bugfix kernel update yesterday,
it does not have any changes critical for OpenVZ,
so I'm going to skip rebase to this kernel.

If nothing critical will be found, next OpenVz6 kernel can be expected in end 
of August.

Thank you,
Vasily Averin

I'm very pleased with the performance of openvz VMs - just a quick test
spinning up identically spec'd centos 7 VMs under kvm, virtualbox and
openvz, and openvz was outperforming the others by a definitive margin,
Kudos to the developers.

Re: [Users] Creating a VM

2019-07-02 Thread Arjit Chaudhary
I think you would need to use,

--device-add cdrom {--device  | --image }
[--iface ] [--subtype ]
[--passthr] [--position ]

So I think to mount the ISO image

prlctl set c7-vm1 --device-add cdrom --image /path/to/iso

If you have to specify "--device device"as well, then I'd suggest checking
the cd-rom device from,
 virsh edit c7-vm1

could be hda or hdc

[Users] Creating a VM

2019-07-02 Thread jjs - mainphrame
I've long been using openvz for running containers. Now I'm looking into
running VMs.

I've looked through the docs and can't find a description of how to install
an OS into a VM, once created.

I created a centos 7 vm with:
# prlctl create c7-vm1 --distribution centos7 --vmtype vm

I set the remote access with:
# prlctl set c7-vm1 --vnc-mode manual --vnc-port 59000 --vnc-passwd xx

But I don't see how to launch an installer, as I would in e.g. kvm. I can
see the vm booting up through the vnc connection, and it apparently can't
find the iso image sitting in the vmprivate/vm-id directory.

I'd like to buy a clue, please.
