A month at least
So, just to sum up the replies so far, If i wanted to spin up a maximum of 4xsingle-core VMs, I would have to choose at MINIMUM : 4xSockets, 4xIPv4 AND 4xCores from their respective dropdowns in the order form(along with desired total of RAM, disk and Transfer, of course).
Just to be clear, I am referring to https://www.prometeus.net/billing/cart.php?a=add&pid=150
Can other purchasers confirm this picture for me? @Amitz? @entrailz @TheLinuxBug
It would help drive informed consumer purchases, towards a solid provider.
I went for 1 socket 8x cores, so I can't comment. Another note is that although these are KVM, they do not have any Windows templates and so far haven't really got anywhere with support to getting a custom ISO added for it.
This kind of storage is overkill if only used for rsync, but too good for Linux isos
That's exactly how I understood the concept.
Just wanted to update,
Even though they state its a KVM storage pool, they will not assist in anyway with getting Windows installed and as far as I can tell there is no way to custom load an ISO. Instead of assisting me by uploading an ISO, they keep trying to push IWStack instead of letting me use what I paid for.
I understand this is just a storage pool, but being KVM based I shouldn't be limited to just a Linux operating system, as some of my storage needs are done through programs that only work on Windows (not ideal, I know).
When ordering there is no mentioning of Windows, only Linux.
Mayne not what you wanted, but what you wanted was not mentioned.
They do with iwstack, maybe you can ask them to give your money back and do use iwstack.
I am sure they are willing to transfer your payment to iwstack credits. Talk to them, they are friendly people. It's not their fault that you automatically assumed the availability of Windows on KVM and that special product line.
This is why I assumed so:

That's indeed misleading and badly presented...
I'm sure they are great guys, I have requested a refund, if they cannot do that then perhaps they can move my credits over.
Its a shame as I'm sure it takes them 5 minutes to put an ISO up for quick use.
@Maounique
Just two words of clarification. We don't mention Windows when clients purchase so there are is no way to think / hope to get a windows machine when purchasing :-)

The hardware layer of proxmox is like this and the whmcs module just pass it straight to the users:

I think @entrailz saw Windows listed and changed his mind. Nothing wrong, this may happen :-)
As stated by @prometeus
No hard feelings against the guys, was just a bit of a mistake on my end, assuming things that weren't stated.
They have since refunded me and 0 problems.
Great support in that regard.
