I think the main problem here is that you misunderstand the concept of openvz. IMHO openVz is not about giving you a virtual Server in the sense of a mainframe's hardware partition or the like Xen is doing. The concept of openVz is more the like of a very very (do I said very?) sophisticated changeroot. It's about having all critical resources of a servers hardware controlled by the UBC and beeing able to allocate these resources to virtual environments. This concept is best compared to Solaris zones. Maybe you find some better explanation of this concept on the solaris pages at www.sun.com.
This concept has advantages and disadvantages - but this is an other topic.

Regards,
Frank
