NAME

       vzeventd - the OpenVZ events daemon.

SYNOPSIS

       vzeventd [-v] [-d]

       vzeventd -h

DESCRIPTION

       This  daemon  takes care of events sent by the OpenVZ kernel (via a netlink socket) and performs required
       actions associated with those events, by running specific scripts. Every event received contains an event
       name and a container ID.

       For every known event, the event script /usr/lib/vzctl/vzctl/scripts/vzevent-event_name is executed, with
       container ID being passed to the script as VEID environment variable.  Not-existent  events  scripts  are
       ignored.  All unknown events are ignored but logged.

       The following events are recognized:
              • start
              • stop
              • mount
              • umount
              • reboot

       The following event scripts are provided:

       vzevent-stop
              Takes care of removing ARP and routing records for the given CT from CT0.

       vzevent-reboot
              Takes care of rebooting a given CT.
