How much time did ovh guys consume to provision an order. ?
I set the ::2 address and it worked. So I have a /64 block owever OVH only communicates the ::1/128 address.
How can I edit my previous post? I searched but no button or menu for that function:D
~10min
Yes, I have put up a config for proxmox on how to use all /64 for virtualization. It is kind of cumbersome because their routers only allow one IP (it could be any of the range) go out at the same time, so you have to proxy eerything through it with ndppd.
The old (2021) KS LE don't have the US 25 mbps problem without egress.
The new ones, with SSD, have, but the performance of SSD (2x960 in my case as it looks like everyone else) makes up for it. I will keep both, they are good bang for the money.
CPU new one:
CPU old one:
Granted, the old one is not idle, but doesn't run anything heavy.
%Cpu(s): 0.7 us, 0.8 sy, 0.0 ni, 98.5 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.1 si, 0.0 stSo when installing proxmox via their template, it forces you to create the /var/lib/vz partition and that is the only thing proxmox seems to see.
Is there no way to just use / partition for it? I'd rather not split up everything, so I set 2GB for /var/lib/vz just cause I had to make a partition, but I cant seem to use / partition in proxmox at all.
Do I have to install it manually on top of debian if I want to use just 1 partition?
Tick the custom partition when installing the OS
Yeah I did that, but the point is that their template wants to force you to use /var/lib/vz and you cant even install without it. And proxmox cant use any other partition after installation
I always install debian first, custom partition layout, then install proxmox on top of debian (according to their official guide).
I like to put var/lib/vz on custom file system, usually btrfs, snapshots, etc.

Nvm, I'm stupid. I could add it under datacenter->Storage as a "directory" and just give it a path such as /home/user/proxmox
Or you could remove completely the partition after installing and add later whatever you wish.
Proxmox directly takes less time to install and, while I was usually installing debian first, since Bullseye, the network tweaking takes too long and I locked myself out a couple of times due to stupidity, therefore I go with Proxmox directly.
I already have the config files for OVH with all bridges configured, IPv6 routing for all /64 I just need to tweak a bit and is ready.
KS-LE-1 has been sold out, I haven't applied for tax exemption yet
KS-LE-2 Canada out of stock? No delivery after 30 mins
I feel like this increases my chances at the ovh lottery, restocked units may have better drives, memory, and stuff like that
How do you do that?
I have already an account and 2 servers, they didn't charge VAT for that, but I could not use it to order the new one and it had nothing to do with the setup fee, the account didn't exist, I had to recreate it using the SAME email from my company and it worked.
This allowed me to apply the setup fee coupon, but it charged me VAT.
I read the introduction,
KS-LE-2usesIntel Xeon E3-1230v6 - 4c/8t - 3.5 GHz/3.9 GHz.Did they secretly change something?Looks like you're looking at SYS-LE-2 not KS-LE-2
I opened a ticket, but they haven't received any response for a while
If I migrate my failover from SYS to OVH Eco, do I keep my grandfathered IP costs?
Another Debian installation guide, I used this with one SSD, the other one not used

Please don't post non-comments
ok.
was asking a question but find answer on my own. therefore i "deleted" the comment. how to handle it better in future, sir? @angstrom
Two options:
(i) If you can still edit your original post, then you could do something like the following:
(ii) If you can't edit your original post, then you could simply quote your original post, saying that you've found the answer, which is [give the answer]
Is it possible to edit my posts? How can I do it? I can only edit when I open a new topic.
Im too retarded to setup networking in proxmox, I dont have connectivity in my VMs.
Anyone can explain it like im 5? I was googling around but nothing works for me. I used their template to install proxmox
Everyone can edit their comment for 60 minutes after posting their comment -- see the cogwheel to the left of the square in the upper right corner of your post (move your mouse to see it)
I will give you my files and some comments.
Notes:
1. X marks the spot where you need to adapt to your IPv6. I assume you have similar in the rest if you got it in France. Otherwise you will have to replace all the IPv6 accordingly. Also replace "IPV4" with your actual IPv4;
2. Note the number of "f"s Sometimes there are 4 (last) sometimes there are 6. This is because they route a /56 actually, not /64 plainly. Their routing is "original", not your fault.
3. I have some ports forwarded, both in bulk and one by one, I keep those there as an example.
4. The VMs/CTs will be bridged to vmbr6 NOT vmbr0. Give it an IP in 10.0.0.0/24 range and any IPv6 within your /64. Gateway (in VMs/CTs) is 10.0.0.254 for IPv4 and ::1 for IPv6. I suppose you could replace the RFC 1918 class, I use 10.0.0.0 because I used to manage a very big network and it is faster to type as well;
5. vmbr64 is there for my "special needs". it is not needed for simple container/VM connectivity, but does not ask for food, you can use it for internal-only routing completely isolated from outside.
6. You need to enable forwarding for IPv6. IPv4 I enabled in the post-up stanza but IPv6 is better to enable permanently in sysctl.conf : uncomment
net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1then applysysctl -p /etc/sysctl.confNow, forwarding is enabled, but we need to route /64 through only one IPv6 as OVH routers only allow one per MAC at any given time. You will notice in the config the IP for the net-facing bridge is address 2001:41d0:x:xxxx::FFFF/128 I used that one because I like the gateway to be ::1 in the CT/VM configs for sanity purposes and you could see that in vmbr6 config. In order to do this special OVH routing we will use ndppd which will do the proxying of NDP between interfaces and thus enabling the routing.
apt install ndppdThen create the config (does not exist initially) at /etc/ndppd.conf
It will complain /64 is too large, you can slash it into smaller chunks adding a similar config for each, I recommend /120 but /64 works for most cases and does not have a big performance impact.
I hope I didn't forget anything.
Important!
Test the file for typos with
ifup --no-act vmbr0and then vbmr6 and vmbr64. If you get no errors, then you are probably good to go.@Maounique Thank you very much.
Almost 24 hours and still waiting for mine to be provisioned. Probably should not have paid via paypal. Not sure if opening a ticket for VAT to be removed also affected this as well.
Checking your order
An additional processing time is required. It is usually around 48 hours. Our customer support team may contact you.
Very true, but most people, including "new customers", got it long ago. There is probably some issue, I just ate the VAT and will ask to be removed later.
