I'm installing the Vertica Community Edition in an LXC container and I'll handily confess to suppressing a few errors in the install process to get to this point (notably /opt/vertica/share/binlib/read/get-disks has problems, and there's no 2GB swap partition).
In spite of that, however, I seem to be able to run admintools -t createdb without too much difficulty, and it even stays up for a few minutes before failing. I dug into the error logs and this seems to be the root of my problems:
