'''Yum''' is nice package manager for RPM-based systems. If you are already using yum, you can set up OpenVZ yum repository and install/update OpenVZ software using yum.

== Setup ==
 
 
 
Download [http://download.openvz.org/openvz.repo openvz.repo] file and put it to <code>/etc/yum.repos.d/</code> directory on your server. You are all set.
 
 
 
== Usage ==
 
 
 
=== Upgrade ===
 
If you have OpenVZ already installed, just run
 
<pre>
 
# yum update
 
</pre>
 
periodically to keep your system up to date.
 
 
 
=== New installation ===
 
Run
 
<pre>
 
# yum install ovzkernel vzctl
 
</pre>
 
to install OpenVZ on your system.
 
 
 
{{Note|barely installing those packages is not enough to have OpenVZ up and running on your system. For full installation instructions, see [[Quick installation]].}}
 
 
 
== Additional kernels ==
 
File <code>openvz.repo</code> by default enables only one repository — the one which contains latest stable kernel and tools. If you want to run some other OpenVZ kernel (e.g. development one, or a kernel made from some vendor's one), please edit <code>/etc/yum.repos.d/openvz.repo</code> manually, changing the line <code>enable=0</code> to <code>enable=1</code> for the kernel you want.
 
 
 
== Troubleshooting ==
 
 
 
=== Fedora Core 6: complain about newer kernel ===
 
 
 
On Fedora 6 system you can get the error while installing OpenVZ kernel using yum, like this one:
 
 
 
Transaction Check Error:  package kernel-2.6.18-1.2869.fc6 (which is newer than kernel-2.6.18-ovz028test010.1) is already installed
 
  package kernel-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 (which is newer than kernel-2.6.18-ovz028test010.1) is already installed
 
 
 
To work around this, disable kernel packages in fedora-core and fedora-updates repositories, by adding this line:
 
 
 
exclude=kernel kernel-smp kernel-enterprise
 
 
 
to the
 
* [core] section of /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-core.repo file
 
* [updates] section of /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo file
