<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto">Hello,<div><br></div><div>Thank you for this, that's very re-assuring news regarding OpenVZ/Virtuozzo itself. I'm carrying out some testing for possible container operating system replacements for CentOS 8, and as per your recommendation I'm giving VzLinux 8 a go. However, one issue I seem to have encountered is a lack of any PHP packages in the virtuozzolinux-base repo for VzLinux 8.</div><div><br></div><div>I can of course obtain PHP packages in a variety of other ways from other sources, but before I go down that road I just wanted to check to make sure I'm not missing something obvious, and that it really is the case that VzLinux 8 ships with no PHP. We use OpenVZ for selling customer containers that are largely used for Web hosting purposes, so being able to provide the full LAMP stack is pretty much essential.<br><br><div dir="ltr"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">--<br><br>Kevin Drysdale<br>Senior Systems Administrator<br><br>iomart<br><br>Tel: <a href="tel:0141%20931%206400" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="telephone" x-apple-data-detectors-result="1">0141 931 6400</a><br>Fax: <a href="tel:0141%20931%206401" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="telephone" x-apple-data-detectors-result="2">0141 931 6401</a><br><br><a href="https://twitter.com/iomart" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="link" x-apple-data-detectors-result="3">https://twitter.com/iomart</a><br><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/iomart" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="link" x-apple-data-detectors-result="4">https://www.linkedin.com/company/iomart</a><br><br><a href="http://www.iomart.com/" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="link" x-apple-data-detectors-result="5">www.iomart.com</a><br>iomart - any cloud. your way.<br><br>**************************************************************************<br>The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to<br>which it is addressed and may contain confidential material.

Yes, we already have VzLinux 8 template and going to proceed maintaining it as a RHEL recompilation. Official roadmap is likely will be announced in the near future, since it is indeed logical to suggest VzLinux as a CentOS replacement for CTs.<br>

As for Suse - we had templates for opensuse 42.x but it seems that there was no much interest in them so currently there is no plans for new openSUSE. SLES templates should be in a good shape, but they indeed require a valid SLES license.

That's right. We don't depend on CentOS releases in any sense. Until RH publishes source code to CentOS git or some other places, there are no obstacles in picking up and building that code for Vz.<br>

<div dir="ltr">From what I've heard, Red Hat will continue to make their source available in the same repos as before, so even if Centos ends, Virtuozzo can still build from the same RH source repos that Centos had been pulling from.<br>

<p>Hello <br>
</p>
<p>virtuozzo 7 OS is based on centos 7, I guessed from :<br>

<p>=> Virtuozzo Linux 7 is based on the CentOS7 distribution and offers full compatibility with CentOS and the RedHat family.</p>
<p>Then what will be the base of virtuozzo 8 ? regarding that annoncement: <a href="https://blog.centos.org/2020/12/future-is-centos-stream/" target="_blank">
https://blog.centos.org/2020/12/future-is-centos-stream/</a></p>
<p>the threaded comments are furious about that decision, would virtuozzo 8 rebuild fron RHEL source directly or base on another distrib ? </p>
