NAME

       vps.conf - configuration file for an OpenVZ container.

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/vz/conf/XXX.conf

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  a  configuration  file  for  a  container.  It  is  stored as
       /etc/vz/conf/CTID.conf, where CTID is  the  numeric  ID  of  the  given
       container.

       Configuration file consists of lines in the form

       PARAMETER="value"

       All parameter names and values are case-sensitive. Quotes surrounding a
       value  are  required  if  value  contains  spaces,  and  are   optional
       otherwise.   Extra  spaces are not allowed. All unrecognized lines will
       be ignored.

       Please note that the file is created/modified by the  vzctl(8)  command
       with  the  set  --save  arguments,  therefore changes to this file made
       otherwise than by vzctl(8) can be lost during the next vzctl run.

       The meaning of each parameter is described in vzctl(8),  so  here  only
       the appropriate vzctl set option is given.
