    Very cheap as well, compared to KVM. But, can OpenVZ do everything a low-level KVM can do? Asking cause my knowledge in the area is minimal.

    Ovenvz doesn't do full virtualization but easy to manage. We use openvz just to run a few linux instances within potato resources.

    I see. Thanks for the info. So, OpenVZ is suitable for small projects, but, when you scale up, go KVM, right?

    I think you have the wrong idea about the giveaway. It's based on the number of comments ("generally helpful and demonstrate a friendly attitude towards the community") that you have on the thread. Higher the comment count, higher the chances of winning. GL!

    Yep. basically kvm is for geeks. reliable but a bit hard to configure.

    Open vz is like kernel sharing, while KVM is like each VM has its own kernel.

    In easier terms see openvz as a container-based virtualization, Microsoft is doing something similar with their WSL.

    So, LXC, if I am not wrong?

    Close, LXC is also very similar to OpenVZ but can't be said to be exact same thing.

    Close, LXC is also very similar to OpenVZ but can't be said to be exact same thing.

    To add to the conversation, OVZ, LXC, any containerization limits your VM to only features that are enabled by the host/containerization type. Not everything works on containers, if you need something really low level, it might not work. Some providers do enable features on request, but not everything is possible. On the other hand, KVM is a full virtualized environment, so you can do whatever you want. It may not be optimal, but will work if you have enough resources.

    Got it. Have some experience with LXC working on Proxmox, but OpenVZ is alien to me. Thanks a lot, everyone.

    I called dibs on the laptop much before the giveaway was announced. My computer and pillow can attest.

    Yeah, heard about Xen and ESXi as well. These are mostly used by huge corporates I believe.

    Happy New Year to Dustin and the amazing crew at RackNerd!!!

  • noob404noob404 Member

    BTW, anybody here running unmanaged KVM (Ubuntu), what'd be the best way to backup the whole OS running a webserver before updating it? I have heard bad things that happen during an update, but, updates are necessary. So, I need a way to restore if something were to go wrong.
    When I say backup, I mean full backup which can be restored such that, the pre-update is OS is retrieved with the files and everything. Is something like that possible on Ubuntu?
    Checked apps like Timeshift, but found they do partial backups at best.
