Hello! Because we want modern userspace with stable OpenVZ kernel. It's useless install new hardware nodes with CentOS 6 when CentOS 7 coming. With systemd support we can seamlessly migrate to CentOS 7 + OpenVZ 3.10.
I tried to explain it in more details: 1) We install RHEL/CentOS 7 with OpenVZ 2.6.32 kernel 2) We wait for release OpenVZ based on 3.10 and upgrade our system 3) We got: CentOS 7 + OpenVZ 3.10 with ssooooo long lifetime. We do something similar in time when OpenVZ 2.6.32 was unstable and this scheme works pretty fine. But with RHEL 7 we got systemd which can't work under unmodified 2.6.32 :( On Tue, Jun 17, 2014 at 4:45 PM, Jean-Marc Pigeon <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Pavel, > > Please could you tell us more why the openvz Kernel would need to > be "adjusted" to run systemd? > My understanding (usage and application starting process modifications) > about systemd is implemented above the kernel layer. > Such you could/should be able to run a Centos-7 container > with a "plain" openvz kernel. > It is my understanding, to be far better keeping openvz kernel as > close as possible from vanailla Linux kernel. > > > Quoting Pavel Odintsov <[email protected]>: > >> Hello! >> >> >> I'm waiting for the new kernel and will test it as soon as possible :) >> Do you have any plans about beta version of OpenVZ on 3.10 kernel? >> >> >> But will be fine if you add support for systemd into current kernel. >> With this feature we will can run CentOS 7 with OpenVZ :) >> >> >> -- >> Sincerely yours, Pavel Odintsov >> _______________________________________________ >> Devel mailing list >> [email protected] >> https://lists.openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > > > > -- > A bientôt > =========================================================== > Jean-Marc Pigeon E-Mail: [email protected] > SAFE Inc.
