I have tried with the following command but the issue was not fixed.

[root@ldap /]# yum clean all
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Cleaning up Everything
Cleaning up list of fastest mirrors
[root@ldap /]# rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
[root@ldap /]# rpm --rebuilddb

Solution :

[root@ldap /]# rm /dev/urandom
rm: remove character special file `/dev/urandom'? y
[root@ldap /]# mknod -m 644 /dev/urandom c 1 9
[root@ldap /]# logout

exited from CT 3001
You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root
[root@openvz ~]#
[root@openvz ~]# vzctl restart 3001

[root@ldap /]# yum update
