Hello,
I would like to have a separate mount for some directory like /var/, because I need a directory where there are no quota's for users (but I need quota's enabled for the rest of the system). The only way I know of is by using a separate mount for it, so that it has it's own quota files.
Is this possible? Maybe using a second simfs for the same VE or anything alike?
Thanks!

Hi.
A bindmount for /var inside a Container might help if i understand right.
man vzctl -> bindmount
Hope that helps.

If your problem is solved - please, report it!
It's even more important than reporting the problem itself...

I ended up patching the vzmigrate script, so that it supports a "migrate" script per VE, just like the mount/umount scripts. It's run after syncing the private area of the VE, and in case of online migration, also after the 2nd pass.
This way, I could put an rsync command into the custom /etc/vz/conf/$VEID.migrate script to sync a directory from the source to destination hardware node, the directory that was bind mounted. (in the mount script).
Wouldn't this be a nice addition to openvz?
Edit: little fix in the patch so that it first checks if a migrate script exists before trying to use it.
