[Users] New OVZ9 iso pre-release

[Jehan PROCACCIA]

Hello 

it's a pity that some basic feature as installing prctl should be that difficult , it's indeed discouraging Alpha testers ... 

I hope we'll get a more basicaly operational release candidate for openvz 9 soon ? 

Moreover, the recent annoucement of limiting RHEL source to Centos Stream will probably affect openvz9 source as well ... 
[ https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/furthering-evolution-centos-stream | https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/furthering-evolution-centos-stream ] 

As virtuozzo client I did received a message regarding this event, it says that it will not affect current Virtuozzo Hybrid Server and other product as well, 
but that they are investigation the impact for the futur versions of Virtuozzo products ... I don't know if subscribing to RHEL allows for rebuilding one's own distribution (openvz9 !) ?

I've tried each new openvz 9 pre-release and found it to be broken in the same ways. 

For now, I'm going to put openvz 9 testing on the back burner. I'm still stubbornly running core services on my openvz 7 machines, as their reliability is well proven, but as for the openvz 9 test hardware, I've wiped it, and installed proxmox 8. 

I'll continue to monitor the list, and hopefully at some point there will be a release candidate for openvz 9.

It was worth a shot. 

Still quite problematic, not usable. Interestingly, the VMs running OVZ9 pre-release are still running host routed containers but the OVZ9 install on a physical machine is quite broken in many ways. 

I installed from openvz-iso-9.0.1-550.iso, and was able to create a container, which seemed to work perfectly well. Then, I installed prlctl, which, when invoked, yields this output: 

"prlctl: symbol lookup error: prlsrvctl: undefined symbol: PrlVmCfg_SetNetfilterMode" 

I installed prl-disp-service, which changed the prlctl error to one about being unable to contact vz. 

So, I installed vcmmd, which pulled in numerous dependencies, and apparently downgraded ovz 9.0.1-550 to ovz 9.0.0-264 

# cat /etc/virtuozzo-release 
OpenVZ release 9.0.0 (264) 

The container created previously has disappeared, and the network is broken: 

# prlsrvctl net list 
WARNING: You are using a deprecated CLI component that will be dropped in the next major release. Please use virsh instead 
Failed to retrieve the list of Virtual Networks: Unexpected error. An unexpected error occurred. 

Oh, well, there's always the next pre-release to look forward to.

Downloading now from [ https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/factory9/x86_64/iso/ | https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/factory9/x86_64/iso/ ] 

Will test and comment back here - hoping for some improvement in functionality.
