I posted this as a bug but thought I would post here as well. About two months ago I tried setting up OpenVZ with a shared NFS drive as /vz. One of the problems I ran into was data corruption in the form of trying to install packages using vzrpm that was corrupting the rpm database within the VE.

I was told at the time that there was a kernel bug affecting NFS and that was likely the cause.

I scrapped the idea of using NFS and am now using a local drive. I am using the latest OpenVZ kernel on RHEL 5, latest utilities, etc. I reinstalled all of the VZ software, and when trying to add programs to the VE using vzrpm and again, it's corrupting the RPM database.

I'm wondering now if there's a problem with vzrpm or if there's another kernel bug. Any insight or help would be appreciated.
