vzpkg status

This command is used to check the status of the packages either installed inside a Container or included in an OS EZ template. It has the following syntax:

vzpkg status [ options ] < CT_ID >|< CT_NAME >|< OS_template >

You can use the following options with vzpkg status :

Option	Description
`-C, --cache`	Makes the `vzpkg status` command look for available updates in the local `vzpkg` cache only. You can omit this parameter if the elapsed time from the last `vzpkg` cache update does not exceed the value of the `METADATA_EXPIRE` parameter specified in the `/etc/vztt/vztt.conf` file.
`-r, --remote`	If the elapsed time from the last `vzpkg` cache update does not exceed the value of the `METADATA_EXPIRE` parameter specified in the `/etc/vztt/vztt.conf` file, you should use this option to make `vzpkg status` look for the package updates in the remote repositories set for handling the corresponding EZ template.
`-d, --debug` `<` `num` `>`	Sets the debugging level to one of the specified values (from 0 to 10). 10 is the highest debug level and 0 sets the debug level to its minimal value.
`-q, --quiet`	Disables logging to the screen and to the log file.

When executed, the command performs the following operations:

Checks all the packages installed inside the specified Container or included in the specified OS EZ template.
Checks the repository used to install/update packages inside the Container/OS EZ template.
Compares the packages in the repository with those inside the Container/OS EZ template.
Lists the found packages updates for the Container/OS EZ template, if any, or informs you that the Container/OS EZ template is up-to-date.

Note: The vzpkg status command can be executed for running Containers only.
