    Blind Answer – you should be able to; Asterisk doesn’t rebuild the kernel.
    You might have to get some “kernel source” using ZYPPER (in caps so Outlook
    express doesn’t change it to zipper).

    I don’t expect any problem.

    Absolutely right: 1.6.x works fine with OpenVZ and Virtuozzo out of the box
    as long as you don’t need any hardware interfaces. You don’t need any kernel
    sources, though these are available. You basically just install exactly as
    you would on any other system. There is no problem with timing (e.g. MOH) -
    at least none that I’ve ever come across and at least not for 1.6.x which is
    what I’ve used under Virtuozzo for some time now.

    If you want to install Digium g.729 licenses you need to do some small
    configuration changes but these are easy to do and full instructions are on
    the OpenVZ Wiki somewhere.

    1- I am interested in this as well. Looking into Proxmox as it provides a
    nice interface (do you guys know of any other good one?)

    2- Would the conference calls be fine as well? I understanding Asterisk
    1.6.x uses a kernel timing source now a days so that ztdummy is not needed
    anymore?

    3- Would installing from yum repository be just fine?

    Thanks

    Sorry for the offtopic.

    And I agree, you should have no problems with asterisk using it inside
    an openVZ VPS.

    Some days ago in my lab I setup Proxmox, installed a CentOS 5.2 appliance on
    OpenVZ, installed all asterisk related stuff (except dahdi), including php,
    mysql, munin, other tools, set it up with a dialplan and it worked just
    fine. Then manually made multiple copies of the folder where all this
    installation was stored. This gave me multiple instances of CentOS/asterisk,
    which I configured with unique IP addresses. I have been using this setup
    for a few days now and all seems good. I plan to test conferencing next
    week. So far seems like a good and stable setup.

    Works just fine for our voicemail server (~450 users).
