Hello I can't find a way to restore an openvz container to different host than the original openvz host. Is there a way to do this (when the original host is dead)?

The best method is to manually move the VM to a new host. Just select it from the left menu, go to System Options -> Move System, select the new host, and check the "System has been already moved manually?" box.
Another method would be to re-register the old VM from Cloudmin (which can be done in the List Managed Systems) page, and then do the restore. This will cause the VM to be re-created on a newly allocated host system.
