Can i have Xen and OpenVZ on the same server?`

Question is above already :slight_smile:
Cant find any OpenVZ Documentation so im not really aware if that is possible.
If it is - would someone please share a short documentation for me?

Thanks

Hi xps,

It’s quite simple really. Best thing to do is add the OpenVZ repo to your system, then do a yum search for ovzkernel and you’ll find a kernel that has xen mentioned in it.

ovzkernel-xen.i686 : The Linux kernel compiled for Xen VM operations ovzkernel-xen.x86_64 : The Linux kernel compiled for Xen VM operations

This kernel allows OpenVZ and Xen instances to run simultaneously. All you then need to do is install the appropriate tools by following the OpenVZ quick installation guide on their wiki and also install Xen stuff by doing yum install xen.
