NFS server (and client) inside container is fully supported, for it to
work you need to
(1) have kernel module nfsd loaded before starting CT
(2) have feature nfsd turned on for CT

Both of this is described at
http://wiki.openvz.org/NFS_server_inside_container

Having said that, only NFS v2 and NFS v3 are supported inside CT.

We are currently working on making NFS v4 work inside containers, but we
do it for mainline
kernels rather than in RHEL6 kernel. So whenever we will port OpenVZ to
any of 3.3 kernels,
it will most probably have NFS v4 support. RHEL7-based OpenVZ kernel
will have it, too.

Is there any specific reason why you need NFS v4 and not v3?
