In this chapter, we learned to administer the containers that are created on the node by using the vzctl command, and the vzlist command to list containers on the server. The vzctl command has a broad range of flags that can be given to it to allow you to perform many actions to a container.

It allows you to start, stop, and restart, create, and destroy a container. You can also suspend and unsuspend the current state of the container, mount and unmount a container, issue changes to the container's config file by using vzctl set.

In the next chapter, we will learn how to manage resources on the node. Some of the things that we will go over are important system files, how to manage CPU and RAM resource usage, how to utilize /proc/user/beancounters, and how to apply server-wide quotas and logfiles.
