[Users] Status of OVZ 8 & 9

[Maik Broemme]

Hi Jake,

Actually OpenVZ 7 will not be the last stable and free solution. Needless to say that 2022 was a tough year for all of us and in terms of releases not much happened yet after OpenVZ 9 Alpha release. But it was not the last one, believe me. 😊 There will be a Beta release in 2023 and also a RTM version of OpenVZ 9.

Moreover we will skip OpenVZ 8 completely as RHEL9 became RTM in May 2022 already and we want to move directly to latest upstream.

Hello all,

Is it safe to say that openvz 7 is essentially the end of the line in terms of an effective, free openvz solution? I've been looking at openvz 8 & 9, and much as I want them to work, they don't seem to be viable.

Thanks for any insight you can share.

Jake

While openvz 7 has been getting updates, it seems openvz 8 is fairly static, and openvz 9 seems not ready for use.

Is there an intent to continue support of openvz beyond version 7?

Since openvz is a great advertisement for virtuozzo, it would be a shame if it faded away.
