When starting up a VPS, you may see an error like this:
vzquota : (error) Quota on syscall for 101: Device or resource busy
In more detail:
Starting Container ...
vzquota : (error) Quota on syscall for id 1: Device or resource busy
vzquota : (error) Possible reasons:
vzquota : (error) - Container's root is already mounted
vzquota : (error) - there are opened files inside Container's private area
vzquota : (error) - your current working directory is inside Container's
vzquota : (error) private area
vzquota : (error) Use -v option to see currently opened file(s).
Running vzquota on failed for Container 1 [3]
Container start failed
If this happens, run a grep to see if any processes are running from inside the container’s private folder (replace ’1′ with your VPS id)
lsof 2> /dev/null | egrep '/vz/root/1/|/vz/private/1/'
Kill of any processes this returns, and restart the container.
