Ubuntu 10.04 templates (2010-07-10) lack of [http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/ubuntu-10-04-openvz-templates/ bodhi.zazen's patch for upstart]. It's a simple text file saved as /vz/private/777/etc/init/openvz.conf and with the following content. Without this, on container upgrade networking is lost:
 # OpenVZ - Fix init sequence to have OpenVZ working with upstart
 
 description "Fix OpenVZ"
 
 start on startup
 
 task
 pre-start script
 mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
 mount -t tmpfs varrun /var/run
 mount -t tmpfs varlock /var/lock
 mkdir -p /var/run/network
 if [ ! -e /etc/mtab ]; then
 cat /proc/mounts > /etc/mtab
 fi
 touch /var/run/utmp
 chmod 664 /var/run/utmp
 chown root.utmp /var/run/utmp
 if [ "$(find /etc/network/ -name upstart -type f)" ]; then
 chmod -x /etc/network/*/upstart || true
 fi
 end script
 
 script
 start networking
 initctl emit filesystem --no-wait
 initctl emit local-filesystems --no-wait
 initctl emit virtual-filesystems --no-wait
 init 2
 end script
Also is necessary to put upstart, mountall and ifupdown on hold:
 echo "mountall hold" | dpkg --set-selections
 echo "upstart hold" | dpkg --set-selections
 echo "ifupdown hold" | dpkg --set-selections

== Contributed templates ==

* Most recent Funtoo templates can be found here (autobuilds) for x86 and x86_64:
http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/funtoo/funtoo-current/openvz/

* There is a new version of Gentoo OS template for OpenVZ that made by Thomas Urban, Please check it.
:: Gentoo 10.1 amd64, ~201 MiB, created on 2010-04-11. http://blog.toxa.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/gentoo.tar.gz

* I have built an i386 Debian Lenny template for download, and has been verified working at this time. http://www.fuzzyconcepts.net/openvz/debian-5.0-i386-fc1.tar.gz  --[[User:Echelon|Echelon]] 20:26 23 Dec 2008 (EST)
:: It's no longer available --[[User:Kir|Kir]] 09:40, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

* Can you download ALTLinux 5.1 templates? I have built it for i586 and x86_64 architectures and have tested at real tasks:

* I've created a Scientific Linux 6.0 x86_64 minimal image using mock, by going through installed packages by hand to eliminate as many as I thought safe, and otherwise by following similar instructions as Vic here:  http://www.montanalinux.org/openvz-contrib-ostemp-scientificlinux6-x86.html  (including the installation of vzdummy package and modification of scripts under /etc/init so upstart is happy without a console).  It seems to be working fine for me using an /etc/vz/dists/sl6.conf file which is exactly similar to the centos.conf file.  This template is available for download here:

== Some old notes (no more relevant) ==
* Just added a note to the article that the Debian images are still insecure. It would be better to replace the images with corrected ones, but I have no idea who to contact. --[[User:Bluehorn|Bluehorn]] 09:42, 5 July 2008 (EDT)

* The Centos 5 minimal x86-64 image appears to be lacking in many ways. Most importantly it doesn't set up /dev properly. I'm going to test out the Centos 5 not-so minimal image. --[[User:cbsmith|cbsmith]] 17:53 22 Sept 2008 (PDT)


== Gentoo templates ==
Gentoo template from the 2008th year is very old and comes in a non-functional after the upgrade.

I made a script for automatic assembly of the template (use the description http://wiki.openvz.org/Gentoo_template_creation
).

Templates and script are available at:
