6.3. Updating Containers

OpenVZ provides two means of keeping your containers up to date:

  • Updating EZ templates software packages inside a particular container by means of the vzpkg utility. Using this facility, you can keep any of the containers existing on your hardware node up to date.
  • Updating caches of the OS EZ templates installed on the hardware node. This facility allows you to create new containers already having the latest software packages installed.
