DESCRIPTION

This utility is used for CT(s) local moving/copying within the bounds of one hardware node.

{CT List} - List of CTs for moving/copying.

OPTIONS

By default utility works in moving CT(s) mode.

-C, --copy
Do CT(s) copying not moving.

-f, --nodeps[=[all][,cpu_check][,disk_space][,technologies][,license][,rate]]
Ignore an absence of required package sets on destination node. To prevent CT against errors in filesystem due to absent template files, it will not be started on destination node after migration and must be started manually.
Additional parameters:
all - as is -f.
cpu_check - to pass check of the cpu capabilities.
disk_space - to pass check of the disk usage.
technologies - to pass check of the used technologies.
license - to pass check of the license.
rate - to pass check of the RATE config parameters.
bindmount - to pass check of the external bind mounts in config.

--online

-h, --help
Get usage info.

Clone CT 200. New CT will be numbered 202 and its root area will reside under /mnt/root202

# vzmlocal 300:301:/sda2/private/build_server
