Hello,

We are in the process migrating vpses from Vituozzo node to OpenVZ node. We tried many methods but none of the worked.

If anybody could send a good procedure to do this migration that would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards,
BobHi,

Please someone help me

I am facing below problem

Installed OpenVz in one of our server.

1. Downloaded rpm for kernel, vzpkg, vzquota etc all are working fine.
But when installing

rpm -ivh vztmpl-fedora-core-4-2.0-2.i386.rpm

Says it is already installed

But when we are giving rpm -ql or rpm -qa it shows it is not installed.

2. Giving vzpkgcache command

What is your kernel version? Any messages in dmesg?

Hi,

anything in dmesg?
did you try to increase loglevel (LOG_LEVEL variable in /etc/vz/vz.conf file)? Set it to 10, please.
You can also use --verbose option with vzctl utility.

How much RAM do you have?
What kernel are you using now (uname -a)?

Thank You!

Linux xxxx.cc 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.028stab053.6PAE #1 SMP Mon Feb 11 20:53:20 MSK 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Dell PE1950 8GB RAM 2x Duo Core

VE 101 created with vzsplit = 2
VE's 102-131 created with vzsplit = 48

dmesg gives:

ip_conntrack: falling back to vmalloc.
Unable to create ip_conntrack_hash
CT: 116: stopped
CT: 116: failed to start with err=-12

cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max gives:

4194304

cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_buckets gives:

262144

vzctl --verbose start 116 gives:

# vzctl start 116
Starting VE ...
VE is mounted
VE start failed
VE is unmounted

with LOG_LEVEL = 10

VE 116 : Starting VE ...

VE 116 : Running: /usr/sbin/vzquota on 116 -r 0 -b 3145828 -B 3145828 -i 311317 -I 342439 -e 259200 -n 259200 -s 0

VE 116 : Running: /usr/sbin/vzquota stat 116 -f
VE 116 : Running: /usr/sbin/vzquota off 116
VE 116 : VE is unmounted

clearly something to do with iptables and the high settings of ip_conntrack

Try to not load conntrack iptables module(s) on startup and see if it helps (after a clean reboot).

i might be wrong but do i not need conntrack for my APF (advanced policy firewall)?

i understand RAB (Reactive Address Blocking) does not work in OpenVZ, does that mean i can also simply drop conntrack?
