    I have a Cent OS 5.4 64 bit server and now I want to move all the VPS's from this server to another Cent OS 5.4 64 bit server. The VPS's are based on OpenVZ. How do I move the VPS's, guide me in this regard?

    I would suggest creating the vpses on the new server first. Then delete everything inside the newly created vps.
    Create a tarball of each vps on old server, and then untar them on the newly created vpses.

    Do you have a Vps control panel? If so, all of them have a built in transfer function.
