    @DaveA - just destroying my old instance and redeploy it with doubled RAM, sorry for that :)

    Update: and I got same IP address, that's great!

    I'm seeing packetloss on 2 servers I have with them in AMS right now, anybody has the same issue?

    Edit: They fixed the issue ~20mins after opening a ticket.

    @DaveA: A good thing to be implemented would be for us to be able to see our total BW used/month out of our total :)

  • Void_WhispererVoid_Whisperer Member

    Also, not that it bothers me much but apparently 512x2 = 996

    Hope digitalocean deadpools.... overhyped

    DO has mutiple million dollars of funding.. they most likely are not going to deadpool any time soon.

    Be weary of vultr's double ram promo... while you do get double the ram... you loose CPU Ghz

    $15 Plan before:
    CPU model : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1240 v3 @ 3.40GHz
    Number of cores : 2
    CPU frequency : 3399.994 MHz
    Total amount of ram : 2003 MB
    Total amount of swap : 2047 MB
    System uptime : 2 days, 22:41,
    Download speed : (54.6MB/s)
    I/O speed : 272MB/s

    $15 Plan After:
    CPU model : Vultr Virtual CPU 1
    Number of cores : 2
    CPU frequency : 2133.408 MHz
    Total amount of ram : 3954 MB
    Total amount of swap : 4093 MB
    System uptime : 50 min,
    Download speed : (103MB/s)
    I/O speed : 347MB/s

    @ronaldgrn are you sure you did not go for the high storages plan? There you only get 2 Ghz CPU.

    My France server with 2xRAM:
    CPU model : Intel Xeon E312xx (Sandy Bridge) Number of cores : 1 CPU frequency : 3499.998 MHz Total amount of ram : 1877 MB Total amount of swap : 3071 MB

    And my Netherlands server with 2xRAM:
    CPU model : Vultr Virtual CPU 2 Number of cores : 1 CPU frequency : 3300.012 MHz Total amount of ram : 996 MB Total amount of swap : 2015 MB

    I doubled the 512MB and my cpu frequency is still 3.2GHz

    I am pretty sure I have the Performance plan (check IO Speed) also

    Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/vda1 36G 2.0G 32G 6% / udev 2.0G 4.0K 2.0G 1% /dev tmpfs 791M 236K 791M 1% /run none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock none 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /run/shm

  • tr1ckytr1cky Member

    @ronaldgrn: Maybe just a failure on their end. You could try to destroy the instance and create a new one.

  • ronaldgrnronaldgrn Member

    Tried that numerous times... Apparantly its an issue in new jersey only, even when i try without the 2X Promo i still get 2.2 Ghz, im sure their support will resolve it eventually, until then just letting everyone know to check their stats

    Sounds logic, as NJ is the only location that also offers 2ghz cpu's with the storage plans.

  • Void_WhispererVoid_Whisperer Member

    My 3.2GHz servers are in chicago

  • ronaldgrnronaldgrn Member

    Okay.. they fixed it (yay quick support)... now.. what to do with those 2 faulty servers i spent hours configuring :(

    Hm.. tell them to fix it there aswell?

  • orenjiorenji Member

    i choose Japan Location, but why so Choopa ?

    Try - ./speedtest-cli --share --server 4497

    EDIT: Choopa, LLC owns Vultr and their HQ is in New Jersey hence the IP's being geolocated there.

    The only way you get 2GHz is if you select a storage plan versus Performance. Performance instances are only provisioned on 3GHz+ with SSD. Regardless of the double RAM promo or not. Just in case theres an error with our provisioning, I will fwd this to our dev team to confirm.

    EDIT: There was a provisioning bug, it is fixed.

    @DaveA: What's the likelihood of us getting a total BW used monitor thing in the cpanel?

  • mpkossenmpkossen Member

    It's a shame they don't geolocate the IPs to Japan. Maybe it's due to the way they allocate IPs, I don't know. But it'd be a real plus if your Japan server would actually be geolocated in Japan by it's IP.

    GeoLocation databases usually don't get updated overnight, even if you ask them to. It will probably take some months before the location is correctly recognized.

  • craigbcraigb Member

    @davea any ETA for self-service ISO mounts? If I raise a ticket, can an ISO be mounted?

  • DaveADaveA Member

    @craigb - Not at this time. ISOs are top of the list, but there are some things on the backend we must complete before rolling that feature out.

    @DaveA - any ETA on API deploy functionality. Also I recommend you setup an IRC Channel.

  • Void_WhispererVoid_Whisperer Member

    I hope they eventually add the bandwidth monitor I suggested twice now so that people don't get random overages

    Another user posted his ticket response from VULTR here:
    http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/494985/#Comment_494985

    30-60 days before GEOIP is updated.
