I just implemented parallel CT start in vz initscript, and it needs some more testing, so if anyone can help that'd be awesome.
The feature improves a speed of starting/resuming containers on node boot by running 4*numcpu vzctl start processes in parallel. It was implemented that way for stop some long time ago, but now it's done the same way for start. Besides, I changed the output a bit, and added a new global parameter VE_PARALLEL (automatically set to 4*numcpu if unset), which can be used to control how many CTs you want to start/stop in parallel. vzctl rpms with this feature is here: http://download.openvz.org/utils/nightlies/vzctl/4.7.2-7.g7cbace6/ sources can be found at: http://download.openvz.org/utils/nightlies/vzctl/4.7.2-7.g7cbace6/src/ relevant git commits are here: http://git.openvz.org/?p=vzctl;a=log;h=7cbace6 *I am especially interested in someone using Gentoo*, as I am currently unable to test it myself. Other distros are welcome as well of course. What needs to be done is to run: /etc/init.d/vz stop /etc/init.d/vz start a few times and check if everything works like it should (i.e. containers are stopped/suspended and started/restored, output is sane etc.). This functionality will be available in vzctl 4.8. Kir. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@openvz.org https://lists.openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
