First of all thanks and congratulations to SW-Soft for opening
a community version of Virtuozzo!

I wondered if there were plans to create VPS migration tools for openvz at all?

I'd be interested in helping put togethor a howto to do this manually. Presumably this can be done
fairly painlessly by setting up two identical hardware nodes (same templates, sample configs, cache etc and copying over the vz private area (via rsync, scp etc..) togethor with individual VPS config files.

First copy all data, then stop the VPS on the source node and run rsync. Stopping is necessary if you don't want to have corrupted data. I don't know if a special tool for that is really needed, the shell script which does such migration is quite simple.
