I have just installed latest stable version of OpenVZ on RHEL4 and I have created some nodes following the instructions on Quick Install on Wiki based on the prebuilt CentOS 4 container. All nodes have public IPs and I can access SSH on all the nodes. However I cannot connect to any IPs from the nodes eg wget/ping/traceroute do not work for any IP.

Is there some configuration step I have missed?

Hello,

let's take into consideration the only one VE.

It is not clear how could you get an access a particular VE but
Quote:


cannot connect to any IPs from the nodes



could you please clarify the situation?

# ip a l (from the HN and from inside the VE)
# ip rule list (from HN and from inside the VE)
# ip route list (from HN and from inside the VE)
# sysctl -a | grep forward (from the HN)
# are you using any iptables rules inside the VE
# could you please try to ping any ip address from inside the VE and at the same moment run tcpdump utility inside VE (on a appropriate interface)and on the HN (on venet/veth and physical interfaces).

Thanks for your reply. Here is the details you asked for. Because this is a private server I have replaced some data with x. Hope this is not a problem for you.

you shouldn't have aliases on the HN!
If you want to assign an ip address to your VE "vzctl set $VEID --ipadd x.x.x.x" is sufficient.

That's exactly what I did.
As per the wiki, I did:
[host-node]# vzctl create CTID --ostemplate osname
[host-node]# vzctl set CTID --ipadd a.b.c.d --save
[host-node]# vzctl set CTID --nameserver a.b.c.d --save
[host-node]# vzctl start CTID

Basically the only things I've done with this server is to install the kernel & tools, reboot into OpenVZ kernel, download the CentOS 4 prebuilt OS template, then create the containers using the above commands.

I then tried to connect to them via SSH and that worked fine, but outgoing connections from the containers isn't working.

I did also make some config changes to grub etc as per the instructions on http://wiki.openvz.org/Quick_installation but other than this I haven't installed or changed anything else on the server from a fresh RHEL4 install.

Hello,

it's not clear if your VE has the same ip address as an alias on the HN:

if yes you should remove an alias from the HN.

Thank you it works now! Very Happy
I guess the "vzctl set CTID --ipadd a.b.c.d --save" command must have done that. Confused
