<br />
== Create and start a container ==<br />
<br />
To create and start a [[container]], run the following commands:<br />
<pre><br />
[host-node]# vzctl create CTID --ostemplate osname<br />
[host-node]# vzctl set CTID --ipadd a.b.c.d --save<br />
[host-node]# vzctl set CTID --nameserver a.b.c.d --save<br />
[host-node]# vzctl start CTID<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Here <tt>CTID</tt> is the numeric ID for the [[container]]; <tt>osname</tt> is the name of the OS template for the [[container]], and <tt>a.b.c.d</tt> is the IP address to be assigned to the [[container]].<br />
<br />
Example:<br />
<pre><br />
[host-node]# vzctl create 101 --ostemplate fedora-core-5-minimal<br />
[host-node]# vzctl set 101 --ipadd 10.1.2.3 --save<br />
[host-node]# vzctl set 101 --nameserver 10.0.2.1 --save<br />
[host-node]# vzctl start 101<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Your freshly-created [[container]] should be up and running now; you can see its processes:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
[host-node]# vzctl exec CTID ps ax<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Enter to and exit from the container ==<br />
<br />
To enter [[container]] give the following command:<br />
<pre><br />
[host-node]# vzctl enter CTID<br />
entered into container CTID<br />
[container]#<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
To exit from [[container]], just type <code>exit</code> and press Enter:<br />
<pre><br />
[container]# exit<br />
exited from container VEID<br />
[host-node]#<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Stop and destroy the container ==<br />
<br />
To stop [[container]]:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
[host-node]# vzctl stop CTID<br />
Stopping container ...<br />
Container was stopped<br />
Container is unmounted<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
And to destroy [[container]]:<br />
<pre><br />
[host-node]# vzctl destroy CTID<br />
Destroying container private area: /vz/private/CTID<br />
Container private area was destroyed<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
