Well, vzctl's man page has this:

console CTID [ttynum]

Attach to a container console. Optional ttynum argument is tty number (such as 4 for tty4), default is 1 which is used for container's /dev/console.

Note the consoles are persistent, meaning that:
- it can be attached to even if the container is not running;
- there is no automatic detachment upon the container stop;
- detaching from the console leaves anything running in this console as is.

The following escape sequences are recognized by vzctl console. Note that these sequences are only recognized after Enter.

- Esc then . to detach from the console.
- Esc then ! to kill anything running on the console (SAK). This is helpful when one expects a login prompt but there isn't one.
