Hi!

I'm heard in past that was possible to utilize xen domU with openvz installed.
I'm interested for testing to build KVM guest with openvz container. There is some contaddiction or problem? I'snt a problem if the performance lose the 3 o 5% of the total.

Best Regards

you can run OpenVZ inside KVM (Proxmox VE inside Proxmox VE), but IO performance will not be the same.
 
in any case, virtualization inside virtualization will not boost performance. so I can only recommend this setup for testing, training, demonstration or low performance applications.
 
That's true, but for example to build a KVM guest that hosts a massive number of container with only an ftp daemon and a syslogger+fail2ban

Edit: Is not interesting the performance, but the scalability and the security
