=== Bare-metal installation ===
: OpenVZ project builds its own Linux distribution with both hypervisor and container virtualization.
It is based on [https://www.cloudlinux.com/ CloudLinux] distribution, with the additions of [[Download/kernel/rhel7-testing|our custom kernel]], OpenVZ management utilities, [[QEMU]] and Virtuozzo installer. It is highly recommended to use OpenVZ containers and virtual machines with this Virtuozzo installation image. See [[Virtuozzo]].
[http://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/7.0/x86_64/iso/ Download] installation ISO image.
 
=== Using Virtuozzo in the Amazon EC2 ===
 
Follow steps in [[Using Virtuozzo in the Amazon EC2]].
 
=== Using Virtuozzo in the Microsoft Azure ===
 
Follow steps in article [[Using Virtuozzo in the Microsoft Azure]].
=== Setup on pre-installed Linux distribution ===
: {{Note|Pay attention, this installation method currently blocked by broken network after installation - {{OVZ|6454}}.}} Alternatively, one can install OpenVZ on a pre-installed RPM based Linux distribution.
Supported Linux distributions: Cloud Linux 7.*, CentOS 7.*, Scientific Linux 7.* etc
Follow step-by-step instruction below:
Package ''virtuozzo-release'' will bring meta information and Yum YUM repositories:
# yum localinstall http://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/7.0/x86_64/os/Packages/v/virtuozzo-release-7.0.0-10.vz7.x86_64.rpm
Then install mandatory Virtuozzo RPM packages:
# yum install -y prlctl prl-disp-service vzkernel
See OpenVZ [[Packages]] available in various Linux distributions.
<!--
=== OpenVZ with upstream Linux kernel ===
: One can use OpenVZ Virtuozzo containers with vanilla kernel, albeit with some limitations:
* Some required changes may be absent in Linux kernel on your machine. Our [[Virtuozzo]] distribution based on Cloud Linux and we strongly recommend to use it if you don't want to install Virtuozzo Linux distribution for some reasons. Cloud Linux kernel contains some important changes absent in another kernels (even RHEL kernels).
* It is required to create a separate partition and mount it to /vz.
See article [[OpenVZ with upstream kernel]] and OpenVZ [[Packages]]if you want more details about support of upstream kernel.-->
