Hi,

I encounterd a wierd issue today. I'm unable to run yum update on my CentOS VM's because it's unable to reach vzdownload.swsoft.com

[root@test ~]# yum update
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Could not retrieve mirrorlist vzdownload.swsoft.com/download/mirrors/centos-6 error was
12: Timeout on vzdownload.swsoft.com/download/mirrors/centos-6: (28, 'connect() timed out!')
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: vz-base

Which is wierd, because the host node can reach that address without any issue. It isn't a DNS problem, because it does resolve to the right IP.

The VM is able to reach other addresses, it's just this particular one i've been having problems with. Any idea what's wrong?

This got solved after the kernel update, still not sure what caused this but either way it works great now.

For anyone who have same issue, i solved it this way:

$ grep -Ri "vzdownload.swsoft" /etc/yum.repos.d

to find which repository contains that address which fails to connect. It was /etc/yum.repos.d/vz.repo

So i edited it and set this new line: enabled=false
to all sections. Other option my be to rename repo or move it somewhere else.

I then downloaded new repo as is mentioned at https://openvz.org/Quick_Installation_CentOS_6

$ wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/openvz.repo http://download.openvz.org/openvz.repo

Then clean yum cache and do update (now without issue):

$ yum clean all
$ yum update
