Bug in vzmigrate?


Hi there!

It seems as though the --keep_dst option is backwards, and looking at the 
code:

undo_private () {
         if [ $keep_dst -eq 1 ]; then
                 $SSH "root <at> $host" "rm -rf $VE_PRIVATE"
         fi
         undo_conf
}

That does not seem quite right to me; it should be -eq 0.

Am I reading this incorrectly?

Load Sharing/Balancing and Standby Redundacy among VMs

Hi All, I am new to the list and just getting into using OpenVZ. I have 
the following questions:

1) Does OpenVZ supports any type of load sharing and load balancing 
across VMs on the same physical machine
and/or across different host via the Host OS.

2) How about Stanby Redundacy from two or more different HOST.

Just curious if any of the above type of technology solutions exist 
using OpenVZ. I know this type of technology exist in the 
router/firewall world - Would be nice if that kind of stuff is supported 
for OpenVZ.

Thanks in advance for your comments!

Load Sharing/Balancing and Standby Redundacy among VMs

You can easily install a squid load balancer to load balance http and  
httpd traffic with 2/3 environments.

I'm not aware of any built-in support.

Re: Bug in vzmigrate?

Hello Jim,

You are right, --keep_dst option works incorrect now.

Thanks for your correction!

We will include it in next release.

Regards,
Andrey

problem building fedora core 5 cache

Hi,

I didn't download the Fedora Core 5 snapshot, preferring to build the OS
template cache from scratch. The only problem is that I get the
following error:

Transaction Check Error:   file /etc/named.conf conflicts between
attempted installs of caching-nameserver-7.3-5.FC5 and bind-9.3.2-20.FC5
ERROR: yum failed with 1 exit code

which obviously causes the template creation to fail. 

The same process worked fine for Centos-4.

I guess I have two options:

1) try and fix the problem
2) use the snapshot for FC5

Does anyone know if (1) is possible and if so how to do it?

Colin

problem building fedora core 5 cache

Colin,

They did something weird in FC5 :(

What you should do to fix it is edit the file named 
/vz/template/fedora-core/5/i386/config/default.list and change 
"caching-nameserver" to "bind-config" in it.

We will provide the updated packages for fc5 metadata soon (early next 
week).

Regards,
  Kir.

2.6.16 patch

Hello all,

patch-026test009-combined does not apply cleanly to 2.6.16.14, but
does to 2.6.16.

The date on the patch file is April 20, so presumably it does not have
all the -stable updates.  Does anyone know which ones are missing?

I suppose I could find out the hard way, by attempting to apply each
one, but if someone else already knows ...

2.6.16 patch

026test009 kernel includes mainstream patches up to 2.6.16.8. What is 
inside our kernels you can check on git (http://git.openvz.org). On Git 
we already have more recent 026test011 kernel which will be released soon.

If you care for security, I must note that 026test009 has lack for these 
2 patches only:
[PATCH] smbfs chroot issue (CVE-2006-1864)
[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Fix x87 information leak between processes 
(CVE-2006-1056)

The first one is relevant only if you do chroot on smbfs, which is 
unlikely :) The second one is minor and is a small information leak (1 
bit from FPU AFAIR).

So you need to apply a patch 2.6.16.8 -> 2.6.16.14 if you want.

How many VM on a Host

Hi All,

With a P4 2.4GHz, 4G RAM, 300G HD - How many VMs I can expect to run on 
this machine configuration.
Also, I'll be interested to know what other type of HW configuration 
specs others are using and how many VMs they are
able to run - In live production sites!

How many VM on a Host

Joe, depends on applications inside VEs. You can run anywhere from 1 to
100 or more.
