Hi:

I want to build the openvz all from the source. I take the following way: First build the kernel from the patched 2.6.18 kernel code, and then I restart the system and try to install the vzquota-3.0.12 and vzctl-3.0.23 RPMs, however, the installation complains it needs vzquotamod and vzkernel. But according to the Installation documents, it seems vzquota and vzctl are the only tools needed to be installed. I wonder what the vzquotamod and vzkernel are, and how to proceed.
Thank you.

Bill

These two are provided by openvz kernel rpm. Looks like you're installing the kernel from source, but vzctl and vzquota are from rpms. Therefore the errors.

You can either install vzctl and vzquota from source, or install ovzkernel from rpm, or use --nodeps flag to rpm to ignore dependency errors.

Thanks, Kir. But I think no matter in which way we install the kernel -- either installing directly from the rpm or compiling from the kernel source, vzkernel and vzquotamod as two essential components, should be generated and installed. But now, after compiling the kernel from the source, when attempting to install the vzquota and vzctl via rpms, it seems vzkernel and vzquotamod are still missing. So I wonder whether vzkernel and vzquotamod are really not generated and installed currently in the system. Thanks.
