NAME

       vzsplit - generate a sample container configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       vzsplit [-n numve] [-f conf_name] [-s swapsize] [-v yes|no]

DESCRIPTION

       The  vzsplit  utility is used to split the Hardware Node into equal parts.  It generates a
       full set of system resource control parameters for the given  number  of  containers.  The
       values are calculated from the total physical memory of the Hardware Node the utility runs
       on, and the number of containers the Hardware Node shall be able to run even if the  given
       number of containers consume all the resources available.

       Without any option given, vzsplit prompts for the desired number of containers and outputs
       the resulting resource control parameters to stdout.

       If there are not enough system resources to run the specified  number  of  containers,  an
       appropriate message is shown and the sample configuration file is not generated.

OPTIONS

       -n numve
              Specify the number of containers.

       -f conf_name
              Specify  the  configuration  sample  name  to  write  configuration  to, instead of
              standard output. The file created  will  be  named  /etc/vz/conf/ve-conf_name.conf-
              sample.

       -s swapsize
              Specify the swap size in Kbytes. If this option is not given, the swap size is read
              from /proc/meminfo.

       -v yes|no
              Whether to generate VSwap enabled configuration. Default is auto-detect by checking
              if running kernel is VSwap capable; this option overrides auto-detection.

EXIT STATUS

       vzsplit returns 0 upon a successful execution. If anything goes wrong, it returns 1.
