This document is to track the status of OpenVZ integration into Ubuntu 8.04 «Hardy Heron».

Kernel[edit]

2.6.24 kernel is ready for initial inclusion to Hardy. Below are some resources.

Ubuntu Hardy kernel git:

OpenVZ 2.6.24 kernel git (switch to 2.6.24-openvz branch):

Status: adobriyan@ is working on porting our patch set to hardy kernel.

Tools[edit]

vzctl[edit]

Done[edit]

TODO[edit]

  • Need to fix requirements: vzctl now suggests on linux-patch-openvz, instead it should require linux-image-openvz
  • It probably makes sense to automate changing sysctl options on vzctl package installation (like vzctl from debian.systs.org does).

vzquota[edit]

DONE[edit]

TODO[edit]

  • As with vzctl, need to get rid of 'Suggects: kernel-patch-openvz' and require kernel-image-openvz instead.

vzpkg[edit]

Don't have plans to ship vzpkg in Ubuntu

Documentation[edit]

  • Ubuntu-specific documentation on wiki.openvz.org (see Category:Ubuntu)
  • OpenVZ landing page for ubuntu.com

Templates[edit]

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.
