−	~~This document briefly describes the steps needed to install OpenVZ on your Debian 7 "Wheezy" machine. For RHEL/Centos 6 based systems, please see [[Quick installation]].~~	+	#REDIRECT [[Installation on Debian 9]]
−
−	{{Out\|A commercial version of OpenVZ is available, which simplifies installation with a single disk as well as supports networked installation using PXE boot. To learn more about Parallels Cloud Server and request a free trial, please see http://www.parallels.com/products/pcs/}}

−
−	~~{{Note\|For more info about Debian repositories, see http://download.openvz.org/debian.}}~~
−

−	~~deb http://download.openvz.org/debian wheezy main~~
−	~~# deb http://download.openvz.org/debian wheezy-test main~~
−	~~EOF</nowiki></pre>~~
−
−	~~{{Note\|The second line with wheezy-test is commented out. This is a testing repo with newer kernels and possibly tools. Enable it if you want to stay on a bleeding edge of technology.}}~~
−
−	~~Import GPG key used for signing repository:~~
−
−	~~<pre><nowiki>wget ftp://ftp.openvz.org/debian/archive.key~~
−	~~apt-key add archive.key</nowiki></pre>~~

−
−	~~<!-- this is not yet in vzctl.deb~~
−	~~{{Note\|With vzctl 4.6 or newer there is no need to do manual configuration. Skip to [[#Tools_installation]].}}~~
−	~~-->~~
−
−	~~Please make sure the following steps are performed before rebooting into OpenVZ kernel.~~
−
−	~~=== sysctl ===~~
−
−	There are a number of kernel parameters that should be set for OpenVZ to work correctly. These parameters are stored in <tt>/etc/sysctl.conf</tt> file. Here are the relevant portions of the file; please edit accordingly.
−
−	~~<pre>~~
−	~~# On Hardware Node we generally need~~
−	# ~~packet forwarding enabled and proxy arp disabled~~
−	~~net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1~~
−	~~net.ipv6.conf.default.forwarding = 1~~
−	~~net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding = 1~~
−	~~net.ipv4.conf.default.proxy_arp = 0~~
−
−	~~# Enables source route verification~~
−	~~net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1~~
−
−	~~# Enables the magic-sysrq key~~
−	~~kernel.sysrq = 1~~
−
−	~~# We do not want all our interfaces to send redirects~~
−	~~net.ipv4.conf.default.send_redirects = 1~~
−	~~net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects = 0~~
−	~~</pre>~~
−
−	~~== Tools installation ==~~
−
−	~~{{Out\|Before installing tools, please read about [[vzstats]] and opt-out if you don't want to help the project.}}~~
−
−	~~OpenVZ needs some user-level tools installed:~~
−
−	~~# apt-get install vzctl vzquota ploop vzstats~~
−
−	~~== Reboot into OpenVZ kernel ==~~
−
−	~~Now reboot the machine and choose an entry with word "openvz" in the boot loader menu (it should be default choice).~~
−
−	~~== Download OS templates ==~~
−
−	~~{{Note\|this step is optional, vzctl is able to download templates on demand.}}~~
−
−	~~An OS template is a Linux distribution installed into a container~~
−	~~and then packed into a gzipped tarball. Using such a cache, a new container~~
−	~~can be created in a minute.~~
−
−	Download precreated template caches from [http://openvz.org/download/template/cache Downloads » Templates » Precreated], or directly from [http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/ download.openvz.org/template/precreated], or from one of the [[Download mirrors\|mirrors]]. Put those tarballs '''as-is (no unpacking needed)''' to the <tt>/vz/template/cache/</tt> directory.
