Introduction to OpenVZ

Pretty detalized video composition of OpenVZ presentation and online demonstration of the OpenVZ setup and features including "migrations".

I had a little trouble with command syntax in a few areas, but please remember I didn't edit this video... and it is basically live. One unexpected failure was the "live migration". At the present time, I'm not sure why it didn't work... but offline migration worked just fine... and it had an guestimated downtime of maybe... 10 seconds... so that isn't bad. Offline is "offline" because it has to stop the VPS on one physical host and start it up on the other... and that takes a few seconds. The syncing of the filesystem goes while the VPS is running and it is only down while stopping the original and starting the new... which only takes a few seconds. It is basically like a really, really fast reset BUT the VPS is running on a different physical host. Any questions? :)
