If you want to talk to the OpenVZ users and sometimes developers live, we can usually be found on the #openvz channel on irc.freenode.net.

Some simple rules

  • Please note that this is a volunteer service, so be polite - you won't get much help if being rude.
  • Please do a research before asking questions. Search this wiki, the mailing lists and forum for questions that were asked in the past.
  • Also remember that the level of activity varies, so if you don't get help at once, stay online for a while. People will answer if they can, or ask for more details if they need it. Repeating the same question again and again won't help.
  • Don't send private messages to people unless they have asked you to — it's considered rude.
  • Chances are that people had the same challenges as you at one time — so following the above points will ensure a good experience, both for you and for us.
