{{Warning|At this moment we don't have plans to support vanilla Linux kernel. Actual status is in [https://bugs.openvz.org/browse/OVZ-6535 OpenVZ Jira]}} {{DISPLAYTITLE: prlctl for OpenVZ with upstream kernel}}
'''This article describes using OpenVZ tool prlctl as an alternative to LXC tools.'''
 It is currently possible to create, start and stop a container with the same steps as one would use for a normal OpenVZ container. Other features may be present with limited functionality, while some are not present at all. We appreciate all bug reports, please file to [httphttps://bugzillabugs.openvz.org/enter_bugsecure/CreateIssue!default.cgi bugzillajspa bug tracker].
Running prlctl on upstream kernels is considered an experimental feature. See [[#Limitations]] below.
* partition with /vz mount point
* ext4 filesystem recommended
* Cloud Linux is recommended
== Installation ==
 
{{Note|This section describes installation for RPM-based distros.}}
First, download ''virtuozzo-release'' package and install it. Then, install following packages:
# yum install -y prlctl libprlsdk prl-disp-service
== Limitations ==
{{Note|We recommend using * Some required changes may be absent in Linux kernel on your machine. Our [[Virtuozzo]] distributive distribution based on Cloud Linux and we strongly recommend to use it if you don't want to install Virtuozzo Linux distribution for features, stability and security}}some reasons. Cloud Linux kernel contains some important changes absent in another kernels (even RHEL kernels).
The following prlctl commands are not working at all with the non-OpenVZ kernel:== Known issues and workarounds ==
* FIXMEReview dependencies for ''prl-disp-service'' (PSBM-34414)* Make ability to use prlctl with vanilla kernel (PSBM-34418) == See also == * [[Virtuozzo with vanilla kernel|Status of upstream kernel support]]* [[Packages|OpenVZ components in various Linux distributions]]
== Known issues and workarounds ==
* Huge amount of dependencies for RPM package prl-disp-service[[Category: Installation]]* RPM packages have no GPG sign* Absent packages for Debian-based distributives* No support of CT UUID in vanilla kernel ({{B|3264}})* Review dependencies for prl-disp-service (PSBM-34414)[[Category: HOWTO]]
