4.3. Managing Processes and Services

In OpenVZ, services and processes can be managed using the following command-line utilities:

  • vzps
  • vzpid
  • vztop

With their help, you can perform the following tasks:

  • print the information about active processes on your hardware node
  • view the processes activity in real time
  • change the mode of the services that can be either xinetd-dependent or standalone
  • identify the container UUID where a process is running by the process ID
