How to check virtualization of VPS - OpenVZ or KVM

OpenVZ does indeed use the kernel branch 2.6.32 with their own modifications to make their software container based virtualization possible. That is true for the OpenVZ 6 version based on RHEL 6 only though.

It might not be popular and wide spread but the next version of OpenVZ "OpenVZ 7" is already in development for a few years. It's based on RHEL 7 and therefore has a newer kernel. That's as far as I remember the kernel branch 3.10.x.

Remember kids. November 2019 is the death of OpenVZ 6.

Thanks very much for the feedback Hidden. So soon we should look at 3.10 Kernel as well in addition to 2.6 - until November.

I didn't have the foggiest about OpernVZ 6/7 - so nice to learn about this as well. Any idea what the difference is going to be between the two of them?

Thank you to Post4VPS and VirMach for my awesome VPS 9!
