When I use a CentOS 7 as base system and install VZ7 afterward it's not possible to upgrade, too? >> It also seems to lack some documentation for my use cases, but I need to >> start >> with VZ7 sooner or later. > > What usecases are you talking about? My current OpenVZ setup has LVM involved. I want to be able to use simfs based storage on an underlaying LVM volume. And I want to be able to setup KVM based VMs that have a LVM based disk, too. In best case KVM VMs can be created from a template, as with the container VMs. Regards Volker >> >> >>> -- >>> Best regards, >>> Vladimir Porokhov >>> >>> >>> >>> >>>> On 03.06.16, 18:04, "Scott Dowdle" <users-boun...@openvz.org on behalf of >>>> dow...@montanalinux.org> wrote: >>>> >>>> Greetings, >>>> >>>> ----- Original Message ----- >>>>> we need to prepare a new setup composed of a few nodes (probably 5) >>>>> for August this year. >>>>> >>>>> If I interpreted the wii page correctly, the next VZ7 release will be >>>>> a stable one.
