ok thanks for the info , I have a few more questions:
1)I am running RHEL 4.x on the server . What will be the OS for mine VPS i
create on this server.
2)I already have some files to and some important databases on this VPS what
will happen to those files once i create VPS or install openVZ.
3)What will happen to the IPs , specificaly to the main IP. I mean once i
install openVZ will mine RHEL 4.x stop to work and i will need to create the
VPSes for it to work and mine mian IP will be there to configure VPS only.
Also apart from the instal;lation guide available on site
http://openvz.org/documentation/guides/installation/quick-in stall , does
anyone have some notes for easy installation. pl provide them that will be
handy.
Pl. provide the info.
Thanks,
Abhishek jain
