I know it's possible RHEL6 OVZ kernel on CentOS5, its been working solid for a few months now. Never tried the other way around though...
Why would you do that when latest stable kernel from ovz is RHEL6 based??
Because it's not 100% stable on high loads.
Link? or your personal feeling?
Google for it, nvm, please get on topic(first post).
Hello,
i'm test it yesterday, installing OpenVZ RHEL6 kernel on Centos 5.8 64bit But it give me kernel panic.
128 days of uptime is unstable?
2.6.32-042stab053.5
[root@italy ~]# uptime
09:35:03 up 128 days, 6:14, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
128 days of uptime is unstable?
on Centos 5?
CentOS 6 OVZ kernel, not sure what OS on the host. Ask @prometeus
No problems with CentOS 6 and openvz here.
A internal server here:
[root@vz03 ~]# uname -r
2.6.32-042stab039.10
[root@vz03 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 6.0 (Final)
[root@vz03 ~]# uptime
16:55:10 up 160 days, 3:29, 1 user, load average: 1.58, 1.92, 2.03
[root@vz03 ~]#
Using vswap ?
@dmmcintyre3
The days of "2.6.32 isn't stable!" are over, btw. You'll be fine to use 2.6.32 on Centos 6 with no problems.
We've been using CentOS 6 with OpenVZ (with vSwap) for quite a while now. Overall, it is very stable. 2.6.32-042stab061.2 has a few bug fixes that have made a really big difference on a few of our nodes.
I'm sure using a CentOS 5 kernel with CentOS 6 will be more trouble than it is worth; just go with the CentOS 6 kernel.
Yes
CentOS 6 on all the nodes. :-)
