Posted by The Calling, 02-16-2011, 08:16 AM I want to create a brand new node and have a few questions: OS Templates: http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/template/precreated Is the "suse" in the first section under "List of templates available at download:template/precreated/ and its mirrors: " a commercial Suse or is it OpenSuse? Does this require a paid license? OpenVZ Web Panel, good or bad? What about SoluvVM and VDS Manager? Which is the best option? I want the most features for both admin and vps clients. Is Windows 2008 possible on a vps container? Any advice on new vps NODE setup? Security? Optimization? Any warnings? Such as, what "contributed" os templates to stay away from? I pretty much would like to offer all of them to my clients including: Centos Debian Fedora Gentoo OpenSuse Slackware SLES Ubuntu I'm guessing it doesn't matter if the NODE itself is 64 bit, the containers can be either 32 or 64?
Posted by MikeDVB, 02-16-2011, 08:22 AM I would assume it's OpenSuse. Never heard of "OpenVZ Web Panel"... SolusVM is ok (not amazing) but it does the job and I've never heard of "VDS Manager". With OpenVZ - No. Xen HVM or KVM yes. That's like asking what we think you should do with the rest of your life - it's a very broad question with a lot of very different answers and too many variables to name. If you don't know what you're doing I'd suggest getting with an experienced administrator. You can't run a 64 bit VZ on a 32 bit system but you can do it the other way around, last time I checked.
