You installed openvz via RPM.
As you probably know, RPMs not only contain files like tar.gz do, but also do dependency checks, can execute scripts before or after installation and they can create user and groups.
In your case, some files in that openvz RPM have been set to have user "rpm" and group "rpm".
This user and group do not exist on your system (most probably /etc/passwd and /etc/group).
So the RPM could not set the file owner and group and used "root" as fallback.
I dont think it will cause any trouble.You must always face the curtain with a bow.
