Its safe You can install CSF firewall on a openVZ VPS without any issue.

The short answer is yes. It's a matter of preference. Whether you want firewall on your node or simply want to add a simply rule to block access to the world to the HN admin stuff. But it can be accomplished with some extra tweaking. Here are a few links you can read: http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=39054& http://forum.configserver.com/viewtopic.php?t=3496 http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1192316 Good luck!

It's safe to install CSF on OpenVZ VPS but if you are missing some IPTables, ask your provider to enable them for you.
