How to work with ispmanager 6 in LXC and LXD containers in OpenVZ
Why?
To learn more about peculiarities in how the control panel works when using ispmanager 6 in an OpenVZ container virtualization environment and inside the container.
Instructions
IP address management
In COREmanager 5, on the basis of which the ispmanager 6 panel is developed, IP address management in terms of adding and removing IP addresses is not available if it is installed inside an OpenVZ container.
To solve this problem, it's necessary to add and remove IP addresses to the network interfaces of the container manually:
ip address add <ip address> dev <interface name>- to add an IP address to a network interface;ip address del <ip address> dev <interface name>- to remove an IP address from a network interface.
After adding IP addresses to an interface, restart the control panel using the command:
pkill coreSystem disk quotas
If system quotas are not enabled on the parent virtualization server (Host), attempting to set and activate them within an OpenVZ container will fail. In order to be able to manage the system disk quotas, you must enable disk quotas on the parent virtualization server first and then install the requisite software inside the container.
PLEASE NOTE!
We recommend to enable disk quotas before installing ispmanager 6.
