OpenVZ won't start - unable to read config

Hi,

After a reboot of our server, ALL our openVZ VM's won't start anymore.
Both the 'start at boot' and manually trying to start the VM's doesn't start the VM's

executing 'qm start 2218' returns unable to read config for VM 2218
nano /etc/vz/2218.conf shows the config-file, so it exists and can be read.

executing 'qm status 2218' returns 'unknown'

executing '/etc/init.d/vz restart' shows:
egrep: /proc/user_beancounters: No such file or directory
Looks like we are inside a container!..failed
Running kernel is not an OpenVZ kernel

the dir 'proc' doesn't exist (anymore?). I don't know why.

lvs shows no snapshots

mount shows:
/dev/mapper/pve-root on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
tmpfs on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620)
fusectl on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw)
/dev/mapper/pve-data on /var/lib/vz type ext3 (rw)
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)

Both vgscan and lvscan show no errors.

Probably somthing is broken, but how to fix this?

Thanx, Conrad
 
Tom,
