OpenVZ doesn't support SElinux, but when:
[root at ldap21shadow ~]# sestatus
SELinux status:                 disabled

than it should not be issue. I'm running other instances of 389 under 
OpenVZ so that is not problem.

[root at ldap21shadow ~]# head -87 /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/console.conf | 
tail -5
# e.g. "Listen 12.34.56.78:80"
#
# To allow connections to IPv6 addresses add "Listen [::]:80"
#
Listen 0.0.0.0:9830

[root at ldap21shadow ~]# /etc/init.d/dirsrv-admin start
Starting dirsrv-admin:
[Wed Jan 15 05:29:55 2014] [crit] (22)Invalid argument: alloc_listener: 
failed to get a socket for 0.0.0.0
Syntax error on line 87 of /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/console.conf:
Listen setup failed
Server failed to start !!! Please check errors log for problems

Why Syntax error on "Listen 0.0.0.0:9830"?
