This document briefly describes the steps needed is a guide to install OpenVZ 6 (legacy) on your Debian 9 "Stretch" (amd64 or i386) machine.
{{Note|The best and latest Debian version for OpenVZ 6 is [[Installation on Debian 8|Devuan 1.0]], but Debian 9 makes really easy the coexistence of OVZ and unprivileged LXC containers.}}
{{Out|Current commercial version of OpenVZ ([[Virtuozzo]] 7) is not installable on Debian GNU/Linux because is developed as an independent GNU/Linux distribution}}
= '''Volumes and file systems ''' =
It is recommended to use a separate partition for containers (by default '''/var/lib/vz''') and format it to '''compatible ext4'''.
You must not format btrfs with Debian installer because features cannot be disabled after.
= '''Change Systemd to SystemV ''' =
{{Note|Warning! This operation can make some software to stop working, such as desktop environments.}}

= '''Install packages ''' =

VE_STOP_MODE=stop
= '''Reboot into OpenVZ kernel ''' =
{{Note|At boot manager, in "Advanced options for Debian GNU/Linux", you will find kernels named "openvz". Select the first listed.}}
