Vzctl Operations

Manage OpenVZ containers with vzctl.

Facts used in these operations: vzctl.OpenvzContainers.

vzctl.create

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Create OpenVZ containers.

vzctl.create(ctid: 'str', template: 'str | None' = None,
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to create

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.

vzctl.delete

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Delete OpenVZ containers.

vzctl.delete(ctid: 'str',
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to delete

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.

vzctl.mount

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Mount OpenVZ container filesystems.

vzctl.mount(ctid: 'str',
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to mount

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.

vzctl.restart

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Restart OpenVZ containers.

vzctl.restart(ctid: 'str', force=False,
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to restart

  • force: whether to force container start

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.

vzctl.set

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Set OpenVZ container details.

vzctl.set(ctid: 'str', save=True, **settings,
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to set

  • save: whether to save the changes

  • settings: settings/arguments to apply to the container

Settings/arguments:

these are mapped directly to vztctl arguments, eg hostname='my-host.net' becomes --hostname my-host.net.

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.

vzctl.start

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Start OpenVZ containers.

vzctl.start(ctid: 'str', force=False,
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to start

  • force: whether to force container start

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.

vzctl.stop

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Stop OpenVZ containers.

vzctl.stop(ctid: 'str',
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to stop

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.

vzctl.unmount

Stateless operation

This operation will always execute commands and is not idempotent.

Unmount OpenVZ container filesystems.

vzctl.unmount(ctid: 'str',
     **kwargs,
)

  • ctid: CTID of the container to unmount

Note

This operation also inherits all global arguments.
