Ubuntu 12.04 templates available

I have just uploaded +Ubuntu 12.04 templates for OpenVZ to http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/template/precreated#Beta_templates

In case it doesn't work with vzctl-3.1 (haven't tried it, going to release 3.2 really soon), try the recent pre-3.2 vzctl nightly build, see more info at http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/vzctl/nightly

Enjoy =)

Ubuntu 11.04 template

In addition to a bunch of template updates released last week, yesterday night we released Ubuntu 11.04 templates for OpenVZ, for both x86 and x86_64 architectures. They are currently in beta and therefore available from http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/template/precreated/beta (which is actually just a wiki page with pretty links to http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/beta/).

Make sure you use latest vzctl (3.0.26.2), otherwise vzctl enter won't work with Ubuntu 11.04 containers. As usual, report all bugs to http://bugzilla.openvz.org/

template update

Good news everyone, I am in the process of updating all the precreated templates. From now on I will probably do full updates quarterly.

New templates:
* Debian 6.0
* SUSE 11.4

Moved from beta:
* SUSE 11.2, 11.3
* Fedora 14

Moved to unsupported (because they are no longer supported by upstream vendors):
* Fedora 12 (EOL Dec 02 2010)
* SUSE 11.1 (EOL Jan 14 2011)

The update will appear in a few days, probably as soon as next Tuesday or so.

And yes, we are still waiting for CentOS 6 to be ready...

Update: it took me much more time than expected; updates are finally released 28 Apr 2011

new templates are almost here

I am preparing an updated set of precreated templates; those should be ready tonight or tomorrow, available from the usual place.

In addition to a bunch of updated templates, this time we add a few new ones:
- Fedora 10 (aka Cambridge)
- openSUSE 11.1
- Ubuntu 9.04 (aka The Jaunty Jackalope)

OpenSUSE is interesting -- apparently they dropped yum (which was available in 10.3 and 11.0 but not in 11.1) and now they have something called zypper. Also note that openSUSE lacks the code name. Apparently the SUSE guys are already aware of the issue and have a plan to fix it -- the next release (openSUSE 11.2) will be codenamed Fichte, after the German XIIX century philosopher. Subsequent openSUSE releases will also be named after famous philosophers -- Rousseau, Voltaire, Lessing (although I'm not sure which Lessing do they have in mind, probably Theodor). Interesting... maybe they got the naming idea from OpenVZ kernels. ;)

Also, during the next update (i.e. in about a month, not now) we are going to remove a few templates that are old and unsupported:
- Debian 3.1 "Sarge" (EOL 30 Mar 2008)
- Fedora 7 (EOL 13 Jul 2008)
- openSUSE 10.3 (EOL 19 Sep 2008)
- Fedora 8 (EOL 7 Jan 2009)
- Ubuntu 7.10 (EOL 18 Apr 2009)
Anybody who's using those distros inside containers should updated to something more (r|d)ecent and supported. You have been warned.

PS For people who use our stable kernels (i.e. RHEL5 branch) -- please note that you have to update to the latest kernel (028stab062.3 at the moment) in order to use Fedora 10 in containers. This is due to a few new system calls recently added to the Linux kernel which Fedora 10 userland expect to have in the kernel. Those syscalls were just backported to our RHEL5 branch by the OpenVZ team.
