 You can download the corresponding binary RPMs from http://openvz.org/download/utils/.
 On the next step, you should install these utilities by using the following command:

 Template is a set of package files to be installed into a Container. Operating system templates are used to create new Containers with a pre-installed operating system. Therefore, you are bound to download at least one OS template and put it into <code>/vz/template/cache/</code> directory on the Hardware Node.
