*'''Management utilities''', such as vzctl, for managing container life cycle.
*'''Checkpoint/Restore In Userspace''', or CRIU (pronounced kree-oo, IPA: /krɪʊ/, Russian: криу), is a software tool for Linux that enables you to freeze a running application (or a part of it) and checkpoint it to a hard drive as a collection of files. You can then use the files to restore and run the application from the point it was frozen at. The distinctive feature of the CRIU project is that it is mainly implemented in user spaceuserspace. Docker and LXC use CRIU for migrating containers between servers.
*'''P.Haul''' is the project on top of CRIU that implements the live migration usage scenario.
'''2011''':
*Jul 2011: Pavel Emelianov sends initial RFC and code. The idea of CRIU came up earlier when OpenVZ team realised realized that merging in-kernel checkpoint/restore was impossible. Re-implementing it in userspace looked crazy for everyone, Andrew Morton and Linus Torvalds included ("Some crazy russians").
*Sep 2011: Cyrill Gorcunov makes the first commit to the CRIU project.
