 '''vzstats''' is a tool to gather OpenVZ usage statistics. This page tries to explain it, mostly in form of questions and answers.
 vzstats consists of a client and a server. A client (vzstats package) is installed on an OpenVZ server (hardware node), so there are many clients. There is only one server, it is deployed at stats.openvz.org.

+=== What is the purpose of vzstats? === <!--T:4-->
 We, OpenVZ developers, are curious. We want to know more about our users. We want some stats.
 We would like to know how many OpenVZ servers are there in the wild. Since OpenVZ is free software available from many places, there is no easy way to find out.
 We want to know which OpenVZ kernels are our users run, say what is the proportion of RHEL5 to RHEL6 kernel user base.
 We would like to see how many people use new technologies such as [[ploop]] and [[vswap]].
 It would be good to know for how many CPU cores, or number of containers, or gigabytes of disk space, should we optimize.
 Finally, we share all that information back to you.
-=== Why do I need to participate? ===

 Maybe because you want to help OpenVZ out just a bit. Because sharing is good. Or perhaps you are just a good person.
-=== Why is it opt-out rather than opt-in? ===

 We just don't have a good place (such as installer or some GUI) to ask you for opt-in.

 We are trying to keep the client very simple, so you can see for yourself what information is gathered and how it is being sent.
 All submissions are anonymous and is not including your IPs, MAC addresses, host names etc.
 Except for the information gathered, server knows client's UUID and IP.
 UUID is random, it's only purpose to track each client as a separate distinct entity.
 Client IP address is naturally known to the server. It is stored in httpd server logs but is not used for statistics.

+=== Where can I see client source code? === <!--T:24-->
 Client is written in shell, so just check /usr/sbin/vzstats script.
 There is a git repository for client code, see http://git.openvz.org/?p=vzstats;a=summary

+=== What is UUID? === <!--T:27-->
 It's just a unique random ID, in UUID v4 format [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier#Version_4_.28random.29]. This is an example of UUID: <code>285ad6e8-fe62-433c-be2a-643e1c54b315</code>
 When <code>vzstats</code> is executed for the first time, it checks that there is no UUID, asks the stats server for one and stores it locally.
