    Hi , (1) provided 1xIPv4's PTR/rDNS, & provided /64 IPv6-subnet's any IPv6-address's PTR/rDNS , both can be set/unset via your control Panel ?

    (2) does your Panel have API support ? so that PHP-script(s)/etc which are running inside the VPS only , can set/unset PTR/rDNS or find current value/info on PTR/rDNS of provided IPv4 or any IPv6-address (from the provided /64 IPv6-subnet).

    Hi! :smile:

    For number 1, yes you can manage IPv4 and IPv6 rDNS from within the control panel.

    For number 2, no, unfortunately, there is not an API available for managing rDNS. I apologize for this.

    Thank you for the question. Let me know if I can answer anything else for you. :smile:

    Thanks for your response, and your VPS services.

    As you said "We own our hardware running in a Philadelphia datacenter..."

    i do have one more question + request:

    as your Panel does not (YET) have API service/functionality , then will you please add/include 2 lines of DNS codes in your ( or in your upstream-provider's ) dns-server ? for any of these KVM VPS deal.

    ( add 1 line of NS dns-record in the reverse-zone of the /64 IPv6 where NS is pointing to the nameserver running inside the VPS , & add another line for CNAME where CNAME is pointing to the /64 IPv6 range itself . if you agree i will send you those 2 lines of codes, then you can suit/adjust further. )

    ( NOTE : VPS (virtual-private-server) , is a SERVICE-instance, & provided /64 IPv6 resource, etc, all remains with you (VPS-Provider) , inside your own DataCenters/Servers . A remote Client/Customer/User with access to that VIRTUAL-server in your premise , cannot take the provided service/resource away from you & move into another VPS/location . So those 2 lines of DNS codes are NOT A REAL DELEGATION or SUB-DELEGATION , you did not transfer control of your service+resource to another person/entity who can or able-to move-away from you with your resources, into another location . Adding those 2-lines of DNS codes are just a temporary attachment of a service+resource for the sake of providing service for a VPS(virtual-server) which remains with you in your own DataCenters/Servers . But we named it "DELEGATE" for the convenience , but in reality no real TRANSFER occurred , no real DELEGATION . You are merely providing/adding few service(s)+resources in your VIRTUAL-server SERVICE-instance inside your own DataCenters/Servers, for a remote Client/Customer/User )

    Has anyone determined for sure whether @atErik is a human or a bot?

  • uptimeuptime Member

    DeepTroll evolving to the next level, I dunno.

    @atErik really, with all due respect - what do you expect a provider to accommodate for $2 per month?

    Also - would want to know - why do you need this level of rDNS for your IPv6 ?

    Would there perhaps be something having to do with email ?

    beep boop rdns ip

  • uptimeuptime Member

    just a friendly heads up for @launchvps and reminder for @atErik (quoted from a previous thread)

    PieHasBeenEaten said: @atErik I am about to show you the door. Keep it simple and just ask in simple terms. No need for a drawn out explanation of what you are looking for. Also you should get your own ipv6 block from the aio ip thread. Plus the min for a provider to delegate rdns for ipv4 is a /24. Anyways keep it short!

    apologies for diverting this sales thread - for what it's worth my (limited) experience with @launchvps support is that they are responsive, effective, and even at times proactive. (They were the first of my current providers - as far as I can tell - to apply a patch for the latest intel hyperthreading vuln.)

    I really wouldn't want to see them get burnt out on dealing with too much low-end BS.

    What the hell is wrong with you copy pasting, and doing all this stuff?
    @PieHasBeenEaten @atErik Is at it again lol.

    @launchvps Glad to see y'all again :) Going to place a order with you guys.

    @uptime I just have a feeling Erik wants to do something illegal lol

    Agreed. I don't have any servers with them but they're on my list to try from the couple interactions I've had with them here.

    @aneki and @cybertech - I believe you could see significantly improved i/o speeds via some tuning - see https://cp.launchvp.com/index.php?rp=/knowledgebase/20/KVM-Tweaks-for-Debian-and-Ubuntu.html

    Install the sysfsutils package:

    apt -y install sysfsutils

    Change the block scheduler to deadline:

    echo "block/sda/queue/scheduler = deadline" >> /etc/sysfs.conf

    Add the following options to the root partition in /etc/fstab:

    noatime,discard,barrier=0

    Note that the change to sysfs.conf assumes disk is named /dev/sda

    (some discussion from an earlier thread here)

    EDIT2:

    After making the changes - writing to LVM on LUKS I saw better than 350 MB/s sequential write speed, while tests by @launchvps on Debian 9 wrote straight to an unencrypted partition at something like 700 MB/s, sometimes better than 800 MB/s
