Hi, I am using the following steps to create a VPS using pre-created template. All goes fine except for a warning error message I get when I start the VPS as show below. Wanted to know if that is normal or what can/should I do not to get the warning error. See warning error in BOLD below.

Quote:

ovz:/var/lib/vz/template/cache# vzctl create 101 --ostemplate debian-4.0-i386-minimal --config vps.basic

File resolv.conf was modified
VPS start in progress...
ovz:/var/lib/vz/template/cache#

Also, whe I enter this command:
ovz:/var/lib/vz/template/cache# vzctl set 101 --numothersock 120 --save

The --numotehrsock value 120... What is this value for? I don't quite understand its usage and is the value an average? What is the min/max value for this?

Appreciate any replies to help clarify above for me - Thanks!

Joe

Hello,

If you give

# sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.proxy_arp=1

and after that start the VE:

# vzctl start 101

you should not see this warning.

numopthersock - this is the number of other (other than tcp) sockets in VE. More information at http://wiki.openvz.org/Numothersock#numothersock

HTH,
Vasily

Vasily, thanks for the info below. When I issue the command:

# sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.proxy_arp=1

I no longer get the error message - Thanks! However, should I place this command in:
/etc/sysctl.conf file? As when I reboot and restart VPS the error comes back.

Yes, add this to sysctl.conf file. This change should be described in /usr/share/doc/vzctl/README.Debian file.

HTH,
