Please take care to tweak it for the version of Proxmox in use - console access has changed from PVE 1.x to 2.2.x.

Troubleshooting

OpenVZ Console

Updating of Old Containers' Startup Scripts

As of Proxmox VE v1.8 with vzevents revision - pve-manager: 1.8-17 (pve-manager/1.8/5948), kindly update all OpenVZ containers that rely on file-rc to sysv-rc thus:

aptitude install sysv-rc insserv

This will ensure that they reboot immediately. This fixes the issue in this post.
