    For those of you waiting for a machine to be available: Our inventory is updated automatically in real time. Once a machine is canceled, or a new one put in the system, the system wipes the drive, performs a hardware test and then allocates it back to inventory. The process can take a couple hours but once the machine is ready it's on the site right away.

    If you put your email in to be on the waiting list, once that server is in inventory again the system automatically emails the first 5 people on the list, then waits 5 minutes. If there's still stock it emails the next 5 people on the list, waits 5 minutes and so on so being on the list will get you notified right away.

    We do not keep the email addresses that people put in to be on the list so no mass marketing on those. :) The entire life cycle of the servers is automated so you will know as soon as a server is available.

    I can tell you, as of this minute, there are 2 Atoms and 2 AMD248s in the recycle process according to my inventory panel. They should be on the site in a hour or two. (The hardware test is pretty extensive and takes awhile)

    I'm on Debian 8 as well :)

    ...yes, it was rather frustrating.

    Thanks for the info :) every little bit of info helps while I attempt to troubleshoot this lol. It's been running for around 1 hour with no network drop so far...I'm not sure if this has any relation but I kept installing cpufrequtils so I could set the cpu mode to "performance" and get the 2.2GHz speed...this time I didn't install that and stayed on AMD's powersaving mode and so far it hasn't dropped but maybe that has nothing to do with it. If it drops again I'll try another OS.

    Sounds pretty neat, is this some in house system that does all this? Also you mentioned a template set up with raid 1 for the core 2 duos. Is that being working on and going to be on the site? or do i ticket for it?

  • AaronWAaronW Member, Patron Provider

    It's all in house. All the software we use to manage the DC is created by us for us with the exception of some network monitoring tools we still use. :)

    At this point we do not have plans to develop any further images for the core2duos. We have 2 guys who do that and they are frantically working on imaged for our $49 Dual E5-2670s. (oops. I wasn't supposed to talk about those yet)

    The $99 version is already on our site. I have a config I can fit into a $49 price point. it's not on the site yet and is probably 2-3 weeks out but it'll look something like this (specs are subject to change) Dual E5-2670, 32Gb RAM, 240Gb SSD, 10Gb Port.

    Again, that's not final and I'll probably do a limited number, like 50, just to see if there's any interested in a low spec like that.

    Look around where you are. LOW is what makes this place tick.

    Like I said, the 96GB 1TB SSD and 2TB SSD versions are going online first but at the end of the day, the truth is I bought 2000 of these servers and I'd like to get them online sooner rather than later so there will be a variety of configs. That 32GB, 240 SSD config will probably be the lowest.

    But at least provides us some kind of rescue system, example if one of the disk broken (than replaced) and we need to do some task in the background before it boot up etc.

    My raid 1 setup with the extra HDD:

    # cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md0 : active raid1 sda3[0] sdb3[1]
      524224 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU]

md2 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1]
      2095104 blocks super 1.1 [2/2] [UU]

md1 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1]
      241328128 blocks super 1.1 [2/2] [UU]

    How did you get RAID 1 running?

    Install it remotely using VNC.

    Not yet but how about this: When we release them, I'll mention it here first before anywhere else.

    You want us to announce you're range or you want to announce the range to us?

    There is a rescue CD boot option in the reload section of your customer panel. Just select that, hit reload and your system will be booted into the rescue mode.

    Most cheap dedicated providers won't let you do remotely even a reboot! They don;'t have any kind of remote control, so, for 10$ dedis, automatic reboots - reloads and rescue deserve a kudos for WSI

    yes, and they have top-notch support. Surprised on how they handle any problems (support ticket etc.) very quickly.
