* vzpkg: this package is used to work with OpenVZ templates.
First of all, you should download the kernel binary RPM from http://openvz.org/download/kernel/. You need only one kernel RPM, so please choose the appropriate kernel binary depending on your hardware:
if you use Red Hat Enterprise 5, or Centos 5, or Scientific Linux 5:
* If there is more than one CPU available on your Hardware Node (or a CPU with hyperthreading), select the vzkernel-smp RPM.
* If there is more than 4 Gb of RAM available, select the vzkernel-enterprise RPM.
* Otherwise, select the uniprocessor kernel RPM (vzkernel-version).
if you use Red Hat Enterprise 6, or Centos 6, or Scientific Linux 6:
*select the uniprocessor kernel RPM (vzkernel-version).
Next, you shall install the kernel RPM of your choice on your Hardware Node by issuing the following command:
* vzctl: this package is used to perform different tasks on the OpenVZ Virtual Private Servers (create, destroy, start, stop, set parameters etc.).
* vzquota: this package is used to manage the VPS quotas.
You can download the corresponding binary RPMs from http://openvz.org/download/utils/.
On the next step, you should install these utilities by using the following command:
# rpm –Uhv vzctl*.rpm vzquota*.rpm vzpkg*.rpm
{{Note|During the packages installation, you may be presented with a message telling you that rpm has found unresolved dependencies. In this case you have to resolve these dependencies first and then repeat the installation.}}
