What control panel are you using?
SolusVM
You would need to buy from Direct Admin directly.

Kernel : 4.9.0
Thats the other great part of VZ7
No more "Why kernel 2.32" tickets!
Appreciate the modern kernel. Hope there will be additional reinstall options in SolusVM to take advantage of VZ7. Ubuntu 18.04/19.04? Debian 10?
Yes me and you both, you get the current distro kernel showing up basically, the node is a 3.10 kernel i.e. its not tied to the node any more in terms of version number.
Unfortunately because of the way SolusVM or rather OnApp rolled out VZ7 support in SolusVM its completely limited providers since the VZ7 template system changed if you run both VZ6 and VZ7 at the same time, and at some point when crossing over you have too.
Sadly this disaster was inherited by Plesk and not so simple to untie without major work which they wont do because VZ6 is dead in just 5 months now so it would be a waste of resource.
So until then templates are farly limited in terms of version however the good news is that dist-upgrade etc will not (should not) come with the same issues as it used to on VZ6.
tl;dr
not yet by soon.
So is really kernel 4.9 (with it's features) or just showing 4.9? Will I be able to upgrade the kernel on my own?
I tried 2GB for 1 day, the node is solid. There is no Ubuntu 18 template, can i dist-upgrade from Ubuntu 16, is there any problem?
Showing 4.9
You can dist upgrade
What does the end user lose from downgrading from KVM to OpenVZ 7, assuming it should be seen as a downgrade?
Apart from features like full disk encryption and the ability to install your own OS via custom ISOs what other features are lost?
I find the spiel on OpenVZ 7 confusing, but it seems to me that its based on KVM or includes a lot of KVM code.
Can I install OpenVPN for personal use?
It should be seen as a downgrade, you don't have your own kernel and thus every disadvantage that comes with that.
Think of it as good ole OpenVZ 6 but with better compatibility with modern apps and a modern kernel.
Yes, OpenVPN is fine, even for professional use
Thank you. I tried setting up and installing OpenVPN manually and using the road warrior installer on both CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 16 and couldn't get it to work. It starts but I cannot see the app when I do ps -ax. I tried on my other spare VPS and it works fine. Any tip(s) on how I could get it to work on your VPS?
I don't provide tech support for 3rd party apps or scripts sorry
Just make sure tun is enabled via the control panel and you have stopped and started your container (again via the panel).
Maybe there's a bug? I mean, I got it to work. In fact, I'm using it right now. I only managed to enable TUN/TAP while Debian was running. But it seems like it has no effect on Ubuntu/CentOS installs. Maybe someone here can test here on their VM just to see if this isn't an isolated case.
OpenVZ does not care what OS you are using, certainly not in terms of enabling TUN.
edit: Checked, can confirm the tun off/on works as expected.
Which DC in the Netherlands is used?
SmartDC Rotterdam (i3d)
“Why kernal 4.9.0?”
kǝrnǝl sǝlǝktor 4.9 ok!
just bought one, works fine, but dist-upgrading to Debian stable (buster) is not.
The server just doesn't come alive after a reboot. So unless someone finds a solution a big warning (and a backup) is needed.
ymmv
The Chinese charge back problem is a real problem. I have charge backs on a $8/yr NAT VPS 6 months into the service. Dont underestimate the entitlement culture of the Chinese consumer.
Do i need to do anything to get the double diskspace; 100GB. still showing as 50GB on my vps (order 6626797729)..i needed to read the OP til the endnice box for running some sleeping docker containers
iirc buster needs kernel 4.19 (?) set in the config file,
@SpeedBus this is on virtuozzo7 with "4.9.0" reported kernel version, so dist-upgrade runs fine, just the server doesn't come alive after a reboot.
The provided template is only for old-stable (Anthony told that in a pm, so that was not a surprise) that I hope to be able to dist-upgrade to the current stable Debian release (buster atm). No luck so far.
The EZ template system in Virtuozzo 7 is utter madness in terms of being a hosting provider, it is even more of a pain when you run vz6 and 7 at the same time.
for now if it is not listed here: https://src.openvz.org/projects/OVZT
Assume its not supportable yet.
Let me just say this offers are amazing and I've been using Inception for docker for quite same time (was part of the beta).
