OpenVZ infrastructure

This article describes OpenVZ standalone services and resources.

Code

We have a single place for all OpenVZ source code - src.openvz.org. It contains two projects: with legacy OpenVZ components and Virtuozzo components. We use GIT SCM to track changes in source code. Each OpenVZ component is a separate GIT repository. All patches should be reviewed before committing to repository. Please read article How to submit patches before sending patch. Each repository on src.openvz.org has a mirror on Github account OpenVZ for your convenience. Also see how to monitor latest commits.

Bugs

OpenVZ project is not bug free project. We use Bugzilla for tracking all OpenVZ bugs. Please read about bug lifecycle before starting to work with bugs.

Download

All OpenVZ download files are placed on download.openvz.org and available for download via http and ftp protocols. Download server also has a list of mirrors in different countries. You can help to OpenVZ by setup a mirror.

To monitor status of OpenVZ download mirrors we have special page - OpenVZ download mirrors. It shows availability of all mirror sites and up-to-date status.

Also we have download server with obsoleted content - vault.openvz.org. Periodically we review files on download.openvz.org and move old files to vault.openvz.org. This page contains all moved files and directories.
