On a Centos 6 test machine, I installed kernel 2.6.32-042stab052.8,
ploop-1.0 & ploop-lib-1.0 and attempted to follow along with
http://wiki.openvz.org/Ploop/readme.

I've had no success in creating a ploop image:

root@mrmber ~]# ploop init -s 1g -f raw /ploop.image
Creating raw delta /ploop.image size=2097152 sectors
add snapshot {5fbaabe3-6958-40FF-92a7-860e329aab41}
Storing /DiskDescriptor.xml
Can't resolve : No such file or directory
[root@mrmber ~]#

I'd be curious if anyone has gotten farther, and am curious as to what I
might be lacking

Regards,

jjs

(as a side node, I do not recommend using raw images, they can not be
shrunk and have some other limitations)

My congratulations, you have found a bug! :)

I have fixed it in git (http://git.openvz.org/?p=ploop;a=commit;h=2e06c26)

In the meanwhile please create an image in a subdirectory, not in root
directory, i.e. something like /tmp/ploop.img should work.

Thank you Kir, good workaround, I can create the ploop device somewhere
other than / and will continue testing.

Good! I suggest you to compile ploop and vzctl from git and try to use it.
It (mostly) works for me already.
