I have been looking at openvz and it sounds really interesting.
I have been reading some manuals and doing a bit of searching but I can't find answers to the following questions...
When adding hdd's, how should they be mounted? Under /vz2 /vz3 or something?
And about big ram 4gb+
Would I have to be running a 64bit host and 64bit templates? Or is there some modifications so I could use 32bit host and templates?

Thanks.

You can use for example PAE kernels.

I am thinking for later, if I fill my server with vps's if I could add a second hdd and add vps's to it?

Hi,

sorry for delay.

yes, of course.
Just mount it somewhere, for example to /vz/private1.
And then use the option "--private /vz/private1" with "vzctl create" command
