NAME

vz - global OpenVZ configuration file

SYNOPSIS

/etc/vz/vz.conf

DESCRIPTION

This is global configuration file for OpenVZ. It consists of lines in the form

PARAMETER="value"

All parameter names and values are case-sensitive. Quotes surrounding value are required if value contains spaces, and are optional otherwise. Extra spaces are not allowed. All unrecognized lines will be ignored.

Global parameters

VIRTUOZZO=yes|no

This parameter can be set to yes or no, and used by /etc/init.d/vz script. In case it is not set to yes, nothing will be done to boot up OpenVZ on this node.

LOCKDIR=directory

Set the directory to put lock files to.

VE0CPUUNITS=number

Value of this parameter sets cpuunits for VE0.

LOGGING=yes|no

Enables or disables logging. This parameter can be set to yes or no, default is yes.

LOGFILE=file

Set location of log file, default is /var/log/vzctl.log.

LOG_LEVEL=number

Set the logging level. The more number is, the more information will be logged.

VERBOSE=number

Set the output verbosity. Default is 0.

MODULES_DISABLED=yes|no

If the value of this parameter is set to yes, no attempt to load OpenVZ kernel modules is made in vz initscript. This is helpful on systems which have OpenVZ-specific stuff compiled into the kernel (i. e. not as modules).

Disk quota parameters

DISK_QUOTA=yes|no

In case the value of this parameter is set to no, all disk quota operations are disabled.

VZFASTBOOT=yes|no

This parameter is used by /etc/init.d/vz start script. In case the value of this parameter is set to yes, VE with incorrectly shutdown quota state started without quota check and after all VEs started marked VEs restarted.

Network interface parameters

VE_ROUTE_SRC_DEV=device

This parameter specifies the network device name which ip address will used for source ip. If on HN configured > 1 network interfaces and needed to specify the source ip address, set corresponding device. By default takes the first in network device list.

NEIGHBOUR_DEVS[=detect]

Controls on which interfaces to add/remove ARP records for a VE IP, also which interfaces to use to query/announce ARP. If this is set to detect, the right network interface (the one which is in the same subnet as a VE IP) will be chosen automatically. Any other value restores old (as of vzctl 3.0.19 or older) behavior, when all the possible interfaces were used.

TEMPLATE=directory

Value of this parameter is a directory in which all VE template data are stored.

Defaults for VE

Below parameters are defaults for VE, and gets overwritten by parameters in vps.conf(5) VE configuration file.

VE_ROOT=directory

Value of this parameter is the directory which serves as VE root mount point. Value must contain string $VEID, it gets substituted with actual numeric VE ID.

VE_PRIVATE=directory

Value of this parameter is the directory in which all the files and directories specific to that VE are stored. Value must contain string $VEID, it gets substituted with actual numeric VE ID.

CONFIGFILE=name

Specified default configuration file on create action, corresponds to --config option

Any other parameter that appears in per-PE configuration file vps.conf(5) can be also set here. Still, it is recommended to keep TEMPLATE, VE_PRIVATE and VE_ROOT in this configuration files, and all the other VE-related parameters in per-VE configuration files.
