    Don't rebuild yet. I've opened a ticket @AshleyUk, doing some test now, apparently some disks are being added to the system... wait and see?

    edit: "looking into this"

    Hope it improves soon! Getting < 20mbps write and read earlier:

    We are currently undergoing some CEPH Expansion tasks to improve performance and capacity.

    I received invoice 6 days before. I paid the invoice 3 days before. And still pending.

    Got email earlier today that my vps is set up, thanks Ash! I probably won't have time to configure it or anything til this weekend.

    I think something further up mentioned Ash was building out hardware. Mine took about a week, no big deal from my perspective, given that it's a long term plan.

  • pcfreak30pcfreak30 Member

    @AshleyUk how is this sustainable? I love the offer and am willing to pay, but at the given rate of 2TB for $100 for 3 years total makes me almost worried of a dead-pool on some very important data.

    My invoice is ready, so if you can explain this then im yours :)

    "Free Addon - Open Ticket after ordering
    Paying Yearly : Free Extra CPU or Free Extra 1GB RAM
    Paying 3 Yearly : Extra 1TB Storage"

    @AshleyUk if i buy on 3 years will i get both addons?

    I'm replicating everything in at least 2 locations these days. Hopefully won't have simultaneous deadpools ;). I wouldn't put the only copy of anything important on any budget VPS. This VPS will hold what will for a while be my 4th copy of the same 2TB dataset (primary is on Hetzner dedi with RAID-1, so 2 copies there; backup is on 2TB Kimsufi, and then this VPS copy will be #4). But I will probably cancel the Kimsufi when it expires, and may split out the two RAID-1 drives on the Hetzner to double its storage by making it non-RAID, given the remote backup. None of it is REALLY important. If it was, I'd consider OVH Cloud Storage or something similar.

    Anyone bought the storage vps in June or January got the free addon?

    I emailed Ashley yesterday, have not received an answer yet. Will see if old customers get same treatment as new ones.

    No free add-on for old orders.

    me too, old order. I asked for free CPU and still waiting for his feedback.

    I totally understand that @AshleyUK cannot give out free upgrades to everyone, the main offer itself being already very good. That said, maybe a minor bonus can be offered as a token of goodwill, such as a little more ram or a short time extension. That would make people who committed for a long time (I'm thinking about those three years) not "regret" doing so. Or, the free upgrade could be made available at renewal, so as to encourage keeping the current package instead of jumping to new offers. Just my 2 cents, as I said the basic offer is attractive enough and leaves absolutely no room for complaint.

    Just looking at that, assuming you used it for just backup and rarely need to touch it (if ever), how on earth do they make any money off of you.

    When I get my IPv6 subnet I can start my project :)

  • tarasistarasis Member

    Ordered one at midnight, just waiting for it to be setup. Was hesitant as I don't know the Host, and having to expect/hope that the service will be around for the 3 years but the comments & reviews in other threads seemed very positive.

    Anyone got their IPv6 yet?

    @oliverdorn said:

    Yes and no. Got an address yesterday via a ticket, but I had no success trying to set up routing when I tried to use it. (I accept I may have misconfigured Arch when trying to add IPv6 post install). The server control panel only indicates the IPv4 address.

    If you haven’t can you drop ticket ID and will check for you.

    Just a heads up will be ending the offering Friday, so if anyone else requires one and/or addon have till then to take part in the offer.

  • cezcez Member

    @AshleyUk: What would you say is normal speed to storage area? Have things settled down a bit now or back-end still struggling?

  • AshleyUkAshleyUk Member

    @cez said:

    Really depends on what form of I/O you doing. Being a SSD Cache infront, and network based storage is hard to say.

    DD dont’t really show correct performance

    We are currently adding another 50TB raw storage which also means another bunch of IOP’s.

    But seeing currently no high latency on storage. If your seeing something do feel free to drop in a support ticket with your findings.

    Hi, I finally know how to get IPv6 working. Keypoint is that you have to inform the system where to find the gateway: you need to assign a route to it!
    I added this to my config for my primary NIC (/etc/network/interfaces in debian stretch):

       # IPv6
   up ip -6 address add 2a00:f48:100c:XXXX::1:1/64 dev ens18
   # Route to gateway-subnet
   up ip -6 route add 2a00:f48:100c::/48 dev ens18
   # Route all traffic via gateway
   up ip -6 route add default via 2a00:f48:100c::1
   # Down -> Revert config
   down ip -6 route del default via 2a00:f48:100c::1
   down ip -6 route del 2a00:f48:100c::/48 dev ens18
   down ip -6 address del 2a00:f48:100c:XXXX::1:1/64 dev ens18

    Hope this will help! Regards

    @oliverdorn you beauty! thank you I was missing the setting of the default route. (I had it set at one point, but in pfaffing around I had removed it)

    I'm also interested in this too. Thinking of getting the 3 years if the space can be doubled :)
