Ubuntu Hardy TODO
This document is to track the status of OpenVZ integration into Ubuntu 8.04 «Hardy Heron».
Kernel
Need to port OpenVZ patch set to kernel to 2.6.24 (which is also a base for Ubuntu kernel).
Ubuntu Hardy kernel git: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy.git;a=summary
Status: in progress.
Tools
vzctl
Currently Ubuntu ships vzctl-3.0.16, which has to be updated to 3.0.19. Should be trivial.
sysctl
It probably makes sense to automate changing sysctl options on vzctl package installation (like vzctl from debian.systs.org does).
vzquota
Currently Ubuntu ships vzquota-3.0.9, make sense to refresh to vzquota-3.0.11.
vzpkg
Don't have plans to ship vzpkg in Ubuntu
Documentation
- Ubuntu-specific documentation on wiki.openvz.org (see)
- OpenVZ landing page for ubuntu.com
Templates
The following templates are currently available (check http://openvz.org/download/template/cache/ for full list):
- Ubuntu 7.10 for x86 and x86_64.
We need to create somewhat minimal Hardy template and [probably?] pack it into a package.
As Ubuntu comes with debootstrap, making Ubuntu templates is pretty easy. See Ubuntu Gutsy template creation.
