I download ovzkernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.028stab045.1.src.rpm and try to compile new kernel according to http://wiki.openvz.org/Kernel_build. I change kernel-ovz.spec not to incluing XEN as followning:
%define buildxen 0
then use the command:
rpmbuild -ba --target=x86_64
I only get ovzkernel-2.6.18-.1.14.el5.028stab045.1.src.rpm,
and can't get other rpms like:
ovzkernel-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.028stab045.1.x86_64.rpm,
ovzkernel-devel-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.028stab045.1.x86_64.rpm
ovzkernel-header-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.028stab039.1.x86_64.rpm
but I can use the same method to complie kernel from ovzkernel-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.028stab039.1.src.rpm.
My OS is CentOS 5.0 x86_64.
I need help.

rpm -ivh ovzkernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.028stab045.1.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
rpmbuild -ba --target=x86_64 kernel-ovz.spec
after patching, I got following output:

so only kernel-*src.rpm was created.

It looks like you have modified kernel-ovz.spec file incorrectly.
Please remove broken file version, re-install ovzkernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.028stab045.1.src.rpm, make your changes carefully and restart the compilation

Thank you,
Vasily Averin

according to your suggestion, I compared the kernel-ovz.spec file from 2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.028stab045.1 to the one from 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.028stab039.1, and found :
in 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.028stab039.1
%define buildup 1
...
%define buildxen 0
but in 2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.028stab045.1:
%define buildup 0
...
%define buildxen 1
so kernel will not be compliled. I changed "buildup" to 1 , "buildxen" to 0, then I got the right result.
I think *.src.rpm should include kernel-*-xen.config.ovz, otherwise I can't get kernel package supporting xen.

Thank you, Vasily Averin
