<br>
I'm doing some research on processing virtual machine recently.<br>
<br>
As I what know now, I think OpenVZ vps runs the same OS kernel
as the host system.<br>
The vps is a group of processes which are forked on the host
system.<br>
In the OpenVZ container, thera are some processes to run an os.<br>
Is it possible to run only one App in the container instead of
the os based on the host os? such as a media player?<br>
what are work should I need to do mainly?<br>
could you give me some suggestion?</font><br>

It's pretty simple. What OpenVZ kernel does it creates a container
and runs /sbin/init inside it. What goes next is up to that
particular /sbin/init. If you need to run an app let /sbin/init
run just it, or let this app be /sbin/init (but bear in mind there
will be no child reaper as in usual linux system so you might need
to take some extra care about zombie processes).<br>
