The server network works after they assigned a new ip for me, finally got a reply after more than a week of creating a ticket, I don't understand why it takes so long to response, the wait time is not an issue for me, I just don't like the no reply support communication style.
A VPS I got last year had the gateway IP assigned as its IP address! Of course, it didn't work and I had to wait for a new IP to be assigned.
Your first benchmark was probably before other people on the same node started using it. Your initial disk benchmark is very good for HDD storage but it usually doesn't stay that way forever, as a lot of the speed comes from SSD caching which will have more cache misses as the node gets busier.
Your second benchmark is still fine for HDD, and Hosthatch generally don't do anything for complaints about benchmark speeds on storage servers (since they're not designed for speed) unless it's noticeably affecting an actual, non-benchmark use case, and even then it'd need to be below RAID HDD speed to be a problem.
I had the same issue on my BF2020 LA storage VPS and just had to get used to the disks being slower vs other servers / locations.
I am uncertain how yabs is useful for storage VPS in real world. In my case, I have mounted it as SFTP with Rai Drive and used Cryptomator to transfer my Data. I have not been able to get more than 10Mbps on home connection. Perhaps SFTP is just crazy inefficient.
Woo-hoo, got my CHA 10TB VPS. Have funny rounding with memory and storage but so far so good.
rsync over ssh over wireguard is going decent (fluctuating ~250-400Mb/s -- 31-50MB/s) ... may have to try benching that w/o wireguard in between to see if I get better as the pair of ssh+wireguard does not play well with maximizing throughput if CPU is an issue.
why ssh over wireguard
Privacy oriented.
If you trust more wireguard than ssh you might consider it's more secure, but how come would it bring more privacy? People looking at what's happening on the wire will see encrypted traffic in both cases, even though the protocol won't be the same, isn't it?
Hm... no transfer offer so far. Something is not right, people were complaining, a lot.
Looks pretty good for a storage server.
Anyone else waiting for Chicago storage?
I just got my Chicago storage provisioned yesterday, I'm assuming yours will be provisioned soon.
still waiting for Vienna compute and a Amsterdam flash sale
Gave up on mine and asked for a refund. All I was going to use it for was backups anyway, so I went directly to rsync.net and immediately had an account that I could use to backup my data with no waiting. More expensive, but this is the way it should've been with HostHatch.
Just got provisioned now
strange coincidence.
.1 and. 254's will be dead giveaways. Sounds like their automation ran out of cycles.
There's overhead and FTP is generally slow unless there's propriety parallel sessions or something to improve TCP throughput.
Received my Chicago Storage VPS server yesterday and had issues with logging in (ssh keys didn't work, root password didn't work) but blew it away and replaced it relatively effortlessly with Arch Linux and haven't looked back.
All seemed well until I attempted to setup a WireGuard VPN between my other servers (Vultr, Digital Ocean, AT&T) and it only manages to connect once in a long while. Disabled my firewalls,
netcatfails all the same,tcpdumpshows the packets are never arriving. The other machines all work fine on the VPN and with thenetcattrial.Has anyone else experienced issues with UDP traffic not making it across the HostHatch network?
I have four services in Chicago, and two each in LA, London, and Stockholm. They are all connected via wireguard and I’ve never had an issue. I have other services with different providers on the same wireguard network with no issues either.
@cablepick thanks for sharing, good know there isn't some unwritten policy I'm getting burne dby.
The UDP issues resolved themselves for the second time last night. It's very intermittent and suspect it'll happen again unless HostHatch resolves issues on their network.
Wireguard ==> I can block all connections to the server and only allow in traffic over the UDP port for wireguard which only responds if the packets match.
Previous network protections I've setup use fwknop to listen on UDP and open up firewall rules for SSH traffic as-needed to a specific IP.
Reasons: I was so annoyed with SSH failed auth logs and trying to parse out the noise that it seemed easiest to make it impossible to try SSH or any other service unless explicitly allowed.
I've also had UDP traffic issues pop up out of the blue for a few hours recently. Things started out fine. (Chicago instance for context, too)
Power down your server and check if your IP got duplicate assigned to someone else.
I'll try that next time assuming you're referring to the UDP issue and not the initial config. I definitely rebooted the server (at least twice) and my TCP connections had no issues uploading 1TB+.
I totally feel that one!
my gut feeling tells me some makeup flash sales coming soon
why? seems like they have a lot to do still
Still waiting APAC orders, early next week is current eta, (at this point in time)
You don't know when the other IP could be in use, they could have been confused AF and powered off or reinstalled, giving you normal operation intermittently.
Got email about downtime in SG
Now server back to online but IPv6 is down / unreachable
Already open ticket about this
Let see how much time ticket will answer
