Need to put container's private on NFS. To do this the /vz should be an NFS mount on both node. E.g. like this
 
 
 
Container should be created w/o userns support
 
 
 
# vzctl create 100 --ostemplate=centos-6-x86_64-devel --local_uid=0 --local_gid=0
 
 
 
The following BUGs affect migration
 
 
 
; Blockers
 
: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2874 -- init and crond use fsnotify/inotify which will not work on NFS
 
 
 
; Would be nice to fix
 
: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2873 -- killing udev solves the problem, as nobody has files opened on devtmps after it
 
: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2870 -- you can create a symlink /usr/bin/tar -> /bin/tar inside container to workaround
 
 
 
Apply [https://gist.github.com/xemul/8601313 these kludges] to p.haul.
 
 
 
Live migrate a container using
 
 
 
# p.haul <init-pid> <node2-ip>
 
 
 
command.
