Re: [Users] Status of OVZ 8 & 9

I downloaded the vz9.iso and mounted it, and all the files are dated Feb 2
2022.

So, no joy, despite the deceptive Dec 2022 date on the iso.

Re: [Users] Status of OVZ 8 & 9

[jehan Procaccia]

Hi,

actually I wonder if openvz-iso-9:

/https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/9.0/x86_64/iso//

/openvz-iso-9.0.0.iso    24-Feb-2022 04:41 2.9G/

which is supposed to be the base reference for virtuozzo 9 ,

is the same as

http://repo.virtuozzo.com/vz/releases/

/vz9.iso *20-Dec-2022 12:31*  2G/

please let us know which .iso we should start with to test vz9 (open 
version) /

/

why haven't they the same date (Feb 2022 vs Dec 2022) /
/

Thanks . /

check in that same thread discussion :

https://marc.info/?l=openvz-users=167080032829556=2

I confirm that running openVZ 7 is rock solid, and we do use lots of 
CTs, for me the best featured containers  solution


we are expecting a  continuation with VZ 9 (as 8 might be skipped). as 
a public accademic school we appreciate free and openSource software


but we keep purchase few virtuozzo commercial licences as much as we 
can to contribute to the project .


as long as this: 
https://docs.virtuozzo.com/virtuozzo_hybrid_server_7_users_guide/learning-basics/vhs-vs-openvz.html


/OpenVZ  is a free, open-source virtualization 
solution available under GNU GPL. OpenVZ is the base for Virtuozzo 
Hybrid Server, the commercial solution that builds on OpenVZ and 
offers additional benefits to customers./


is still true, if Virtuozzo Hybrid Server is based on the openSource 
OpenVZ, I don't see any fears regarding its future .


https://docs.virtuozzo.com/virtuozzo_product_lifecycle_policy/index.html

but indeed, we are waiting for a VZ 9 which maybe lacks of a clearer 
raodmap, for exemple, is it still as much an Ahpha release (not to use 
in production) as mentioned here (Feb 2022)


https://www.virtuozzo.com/company/blog/product-updates/virtuozzo-hybrid-server-9-alpha-2/

or http://repo.virtuozzo.com/vz/releases/

/vz9.iso *20-Dec-2022 12:31*  2G/ 
http://repo.virtuozzo.com/vz/releases/


/vz9.iso *20-Dec-2022 12:31*  2G/

which seems quite recent, is in a far better state now .

Thanks .

jehan .

OpenVZ 7, 8, 9 ...

This solution is very stable, very feature rich and very useful.

If you need to use very cheap virtual machines - try to use 
https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/


Or you can combine Firecracker MicroVMs with Docker / OCI images to 
unify containers and VMs: https://github.com/weaveworks/ignite


Stop to use OpenVZ, because OpenVZ 6 is End Of Life and now it is 
dead project.


OpenVZ 6 is just last true and fully functional OpenVZ version.

Something named OpenVZ 7, OpenVZ 8, OpenVZ 9 ... is just agony of 
OpenVZ project.

Is there an intent to continue support of openvz beyond version 7?

Since openvz is a great advertisement for virtuozzo, it would be a 
shame if

it faded away.
