OpenVZ: ploop container support
OpenVZ "newly" introduced ploop container support which is container-in-a-file.
To create a new container with ploop layout:
vzctl create VEEID XXXXX --layout ploop
to create a backup (which is now snapshot) you can use:
vzctl snapshot VEEID
to convert an existing container you use:
vzctl convert VEEID
etc.
Would be a nice feature :)
