Debian – Stop an unstoppable openvz container

debianopenvz

I have an openvz container that is NOT stopping with the standard vz tools. How can I kill it? I tried a VZ destory but that wont work.

Thanks

Well there is a very tricky part... You have to sort out the init process of the VPS, and kill it, see: http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=27976& But... In my opinion you just have one option and that is to restart the HN.

If a VPS get's froozen; look in your syslog if there are any kernel oops, most likely they cause the processes that 'hang'. Furthermore look at the user_beancounters of that particular VPS. Sometime it hangs when installing/upgrading software and if the VPS is not a production one, leave it. It will sort itself in time.

How to mount glusterfs inside a OpenVZ container

well, just found the solution on my own (http://wiki.openvz.org/FUSE)

I just needed to tune my container, by berforming the following in my HN:

# vzctl set $VEID --devices c:10:229:rw --save
# vzctl exec $VEID mknod /dev/fuse c 10 229

...and to complete, you need to set these

# vzctl set $VEID --capability sys_admin:on

to export a glusterfs volume from inside a OpenVZ container.

Iptables – OpenVZ container can’t reach the internet

I finally found what the problem was.
After rechecking all the configurations again and again I finally found a little typo in my containers resolv.conf.
After adjusting it to the right nameserver, it finally works now.
