If you use Debian for your VHS environments, you may know that Suse has a package system similar to aptget called YaST. YaST provides ways of updating the entire system, including hardware, software install/remove, and system update. If you run the YaST system update on a Suse-based VHS, YaST attempts to update ALL system packages, including the kernel, with the latest Suse versions. Now a Suse VHS does not know its kernel is really a vzkernel running on CentOS, and it tries to update these files too! That's where the problem is.

Note that yum on the CentOS hardware node works find and, to my knowledge does not create any problems.
