Template is an image of an OS (i.e. a Linux distribution) aimed for installation into a container. Template utilities are provided to aim in the creation of such images, but they are highly optional.
- Precreated
- Precreated templates of different distributions.
- Utilities
- Template utilities is a software aimed at template maintenance, such as creation and update of templates and containers. Currently these consists of vzpkg, vzyum and several versions of RPM utility repackaged for OpenVZ. All this stuff is highly optional and currently only supported on systems with x86 architecture and with python <= 2.4.
- Metadata
- Template metadata is data needed to (re)create or update template cache using template utilities. Metadata for a template contains the following information: list of packages that form this template; locations of package repositories; scripts needed to be executed on various stages of template installation; public GPG key(s) needed to check signatures of packages; additional OpenVZ-specific packages.
