1. Before starting the installation of OpenVZ OpenVZ add the first repo to yum configuration (installation using yum).
|
1 2 3 |
cd /etc/yum.repos.d wget http://download.openvz.org/openvz.repo rpm --import http://download.openvz.org/RPM-GPG-Key-OpenVZ |
2. OpenVZ repository has several different kernel versions, (for more details check here: http://wiki.openvz.org/Kernel_flavors ), or use the command:
|
1 |
yum search ovzkernel |
Here’s an example of the output
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 |

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# |
3. Select an appropriate version of the OpenVZ kernel handle links by your machine. Then install
|
1 |
yum install ovzkernel |
The installation process should automatically updates the GRUB bootloader settings. Make sure the new settings have been added, go to the settings of the bootloader with your favorite text editor (I use nano),
|
1 |
nano /boot/grub/menu.lst |
for example setting its GRUB bootloader like the following :
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 |
# grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/sda default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title CentOS OpenVZ (2.6.18-53.1.19.el5.028stab053.14) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-53.1.19.el5.028stab053.14 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 initrd /initrd-2.6.18-53.1.19.el5.028stab053.14.img title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.1.el5) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.img title CentOS (2.6.18-92.el5) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.el5 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.el5.img |
4. Next install some additional tools for OpenVZ users
|
1 |
yum install vzctl vzquota |
5. Open /etc/sysctl.conf
|
1 |
nano /etc/sysctl.conf |
make sure it is setting like the following:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
[...] net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 net.ipv4.conf.default.proxy_arp = 0 net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1 kernel.sysrq = 1 net.ipv4.conf.default.send_redirects = 1 net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects = 0 net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts=1 net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding=1 [...] |
To modify sysctl settings, use the command
|
1 |
sysctl -p |
Important : This step is very important, if we are different ip virtual machine with the IP subnet the host system. If it does not perform the following steps networking will not work on the virtual machine we just created.
6. Buka /etc/vz/vz.conf dan set NEIGHBOUR_DEVS ke all:
|
1 |
nano /etc/vz/vz.conf |
for Seting NEIGHBOUR_DEVS
|
1 2 3 |
[...] NEIGHBOUR_DEVS=all [...] |
7. OpenVZ mengharus disable SELinux in condition. Open /etc/sysconfig/selinux and set the value of SELinux to disabled.
|
1 |
nano /etc/sysconfig/selinux |
for Seting SELinux:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - SELinux is fully disabled. SELINUX=disabled # SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are: # targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected. # strict - Full SELinux protection. SELINUXTYPE=targeted |
8. Reboot the system
|
1 |
reboot |
9. Up here, if the process does not appear reboot error, means that OpenVZ installation process has been completed and successful.
10. Check to make sure OpenVZ OpenVZ kernel has been installed properly.
|
1 |
uname -r |
for Kernel OpenVZ installed:
|
1 2 3 |
[root@server1 ~]# uname -r 2.6.18-53.1.19.el5.028stab053.14 [root@server1 ~]# |
11. There is no step to eleven, please oprek oprek own-though more striking
