    https://twitter.com/markjac82976077/with_replies - Tweets go to our slack channel so it's quite entertaining while we work hard to get everyone their new servers :)

    You know how one can sometimes forget their own work phone number because they never have to call themselves? Well, now you have constant reminder.

    We are losing millions, lawyers have been contacted, and I demand our servers are immediately provisioned with Windows 3.11, which our enterprise software is dependent upon!

    We are going to sue YOU billions of rupees for the provisioning delay of OUR C64 server farm cased by YOUR lawyers!

    Sir, I am CEO of 16 corporations and we will perform a hostile takeover of your business for pennies on the dollar. You will be financially ruined! Just as soon as our Windows 3.11 server is provisioned as it handles our accounting application, and is how I pay my lawyers. I should not have cancelled last year's BF special so soon, but it was a dollar more than this year's...

    Bi**h please, I'm the CEO of 64 corporations and our C64 farms are generating more income for us than you ever can sue us for. Btw. our lawyers will sue your lawyers about wasting our lawyers time, because we ordered them to contact your lawyers to waste there time!

    My lawyers are going to take a sledge hammer to your lawyers heads, then scoop out their brain meats and consume them, disposing of their bodies (and those of their families) in a wood chipper. Legally speaking, of course.

    I await your litigation, which I expect will be directed to my alt account: raindog308. Or maybe it is FAT32. I forget, because I am too busy making business and trillions of dollars, minus the millions Hosthatch is costing me.

    Maybe the two of you should get a room and sort it out between yourselves?

    @K4Y5 said: Edit: Seeing benchmarks being posted here, I am wondering whether getting 1G or 10G port speed boils down to dumb luck and/or specific nodes that people get placed on? A couple of VMs of mine came with 10G, while the rest were 1G.

    Keep in mind that downloading a test file depends on a bunch of other factors, such as the speed of the hard drive on the server you're downloading from. iperf3 is a better test for network speed as it doesn't touch the disk. There's many public iperf servers (eg look at the list in the YABS source), or otherwise if you have multiple servers with 10Gb/s ports you can run an iperf server on one of them and the client on the other.

    I didn't have time to run complete YABS back then. However, I just ran it across all my new VMs and confirmed the validity of my question :tongue:

    While all VMs have 10G UL, a few of them have 1G DL, which seems to be a bit odd. Not overly concerned, beyond the fact that transfers over the private network may be tad slower.

    Anyway, here are some benchmarks:

    Something interesting I found on my NVMe VPS in Poland (from the 10x bundle) is that it has an auto-configured IPv6 address in M247's range (2a0d:5600:13::/48), even though no IPv6 range appears in the HostHatch control panel. The Debian installer auto-detected IPv6 support and iface ens3 inet6 auto is sufficient to use it. Is that expected @hosthatch? I didn't see that on the storage VPSes in London or Chicago (the Debian installer ISO didn't detect any auto-configured IPv6). The IP seems to work fine and outbound IPv6 connectivity is working fine.

  • Guys, is it important to have an ipv6 address?

    Depend on your usage case.

    It's usually a good idea to have both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address. IPv4-only is considered a legacy configuration these days.

    Many networks (particularly mobile networks) only have native IPv6, so connecting to IPv4-only servers has extra overhead as it has to translate it using some IPv6-to-IPv4 translation mechanism (eg using NAT64 or 464XLAT) whereas they can connect directly to IPv6 servers.

    No, please do not use that, as it will likely stop working at any time.

  • @hosthatch haven't been able to read every single post here but are we supposed to bump up the ticket if the server is on finalizing state still ?

    I can wait, no rush but just wanted to know if it should be flagged for attention

    They said that either the VPS will be provisioned by the end of yesterday, or they will send an email with the new ETA, (24-48 hours).So far I received nothing so I guess we wait.

    Got it, thanks. I did think it was a bit weird - I hadn't seen SLAAC work with VPSes in the past. I'll probably explicitly disable IPv6 until I get a properly allocated address (waiting until all my VPSes are provisioned before submitting a ticket to enable IPv6 for all of them at once).

    One of ours is still finalising... no updates yet.... do we know how long? are you waiting for more hardware anywhere?

  • Mine got to "finalizing" and I had a special request so I'm going to leave it for now but a friend of mine didn't have any special request, and was in an already provisioned location (not one of the upcoming ones) but his wasn't even moved to finalizing...is that normal?

  • of course it is normal.

  • just wait. sooner or later it will arrive.

    It was said earlier that anything on the original black Friday sale (not a combo and no special requests) that isn't showing "finalising" is stuck and you should contact.

  • Guys one question for the people that have setup the internal network (in same location), do you have all your VMs with similar internal addresses? Like 10.a.b.X, 10.a.b.Y, 10.a.b.Z ?

    Or is just completely different 10.x.y.z, 10.a.b.c, etc?

  • I agree just give them a few more days. they probably got more offers than expected and even accepted them to help people out. they also added a lot of the flash-sale things "on the go" while the blackfriday sale was running.
    keep in mind that this probably was of benefit for everyone to get a better chance of grabbing these deals but added a lot more work in handling all orders and requests.

    let's help them out by being reasonable and assume that they have not accounted for all of that while setting the 7-days line in the first place.
    I suggest to just be happy to have grabbed the deals and wait it out.

    the main chorus of those who got their boxes yesterday was like 'great, got it - maybe during weekend I'll figure how to idle it best' ;-)
    so most likely nobody is going to die over a bit more waiting time on an order he could not have planned before black friday anyway, got lucky to grab it and now does not even know how to finally use it 🤷‍♂️😂

  • Yep. I’m at 1/2 provisioned myself, both flash sales. In no rush. They’ll get there.

    More status updates wouldn’t hurt though.

  • DPDP Administrator, The Domain Guy

    With the price I'm paying for a year of service, I wouldn't even mind waiting up to 14 days of delivery time :)

    No where in the OP does it state instant provisioning or anything along those lines, but yet there are people treating it as if it is.

    Also considering the impact of these deals, a high volume of orders (not including other entailing support-related requests) and servers being manually provisioned, it should still be acceptable if they overrun the 7BD window.

    My 2 cents.

  • Agree with the guys above. Up to 14 days is okay for me as well.
