I am surprised you are able to store VEs on an NFS share. We did this two or three years ago but were unable to get quotas to work. We were strongly encouraged by the OpenVZ dev team not to do it as NFS has "lots of issues." So we abandoned the idea.

A few months ago I tried to put /vz on an NFS mount and couldn't even get vz to start. I think the error message was something along the lines of, "You can't run /vz on an NFS mount" or something equally as clear Wink

Is this changed? Putting /vz on an HA fail-over NFS mount is a sweet way to set up redundancy. Head and shoulders over the much, much more complicated GFS setup I tried to configure.
