Regarding containerizing, that is what I did with the old VMs in osgeo3 and osgeo4 ganetti cluster so I could quickly move them over without having to know how they were set up 
e.g. secure.osgeo.osuosl.org, tracsvn.osgeo.osuosl.org, adhoc etc.
At the time the tool was called lxd-p2c  (physical to container).

The new tool is called lxd-migrate since the new tool can be used to migrate to a container or a VM.

Details of using it are briefly described here:
