Copying Container to new hd [message #39237]

Hello,

I am currently using openvz with hypervm. I have multiple hard drives installed on my server and one of them has two very large vps' on them. I want to copy one container to another hd. I see you can do this in hypervm but find it times out due to the size and would rather just do it via shell

Currently I have copied the container over eg

copy -a /vz/private/101 /vz2/private

I also went into

/etc/vz/conf/101.conf

and changed the reference from vz to vz2.

What else, if anything, do I need to do to complete the transfer? Are there any other config files that I need to edit. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Will.
