Hi Richard,

Question, should I stop all VPS's then reboot Aventurin{e} or Just
reboot?

When you do a reboot, it will suspend or stop all VPS, too. Which - on a
box with many VPS's can take a while. Hence it could give you the
impression that the reboot might not be working as it takes so bloody long.

You can either choose to do /sbin/reboot and wait it out, or you can do
"/sbin/service vz stop" to stop all VPS's and then do /sbin/reboot. That
gives you a slightly better chance to judge when the reboot actually
kicks in.

All things considered: Either way is fine.

What I notice is that if the VPS's are "suspended" which appears to be the first option that will be attempted in a reboot of the node, they will not boot into the new kernel themselves. Not to mention the delay in the shutdown process (can take a LOOOOONNNNGGGGG time).

Therefore, what I have been doing in order to speed up the process is issue a shutdown for all the virtuals, then issue the reboot. This can be done in a one-line like this:
for VE in $(vzlist -Ha -o veid); do vzctl stop $VE; done && reboot
