Setting up host

Basic configuration

echo 'deb http://download.openvz.org/debian-systs etch openvz' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
wget http://download.openvz.org/debian-systs/dso_archiv_signing_key.asc
apt-key add dso_archiv_signing_key.asc
apt-get update
apt-get install ovzkernel-2.6.18-smp vzctl vzquota bridge-utils
update-rc.d vz defaults 95
reboot

Create OS template

apt-get install vzctl-ostmpl-debian

Or use debootstrap.

Networking

Replace eth0 config in /etc/network/interfaces: 

brctl addbr br0
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0

Creating VEs

veid's are integers greater than 100. 

vzctl create $VEID --ostemplate debian-4.0-i386-minimal
vzctl set $VEID --netif_add eth0 --hostname $VE_HOSTNAME --save
vzctl start $VEID
brctl addif br0 veth${VEID}.0
