No. You have 3 choices of install, c1, c2 (with three configs) and vps
The webinterface is working for me. Ill give it a try
Nice. With so many options available from different solid providers, having idle vpses "just in case" or "because it was a really good deal" makes less and less sense (if it did make any
)...
Won't run: http://pastebin.com/6axZZDim
Install 32bit libs, a 64bit kernel can run 32bit binaries just fine.
It should be an Passmark of 1000 points and an 170MB/s hard disk speed.
Practically doubling the c1 server.

i dont have an invite =(
Wait a second:
SATA Version is: SATA 3.1, 6.0 Gb/s (current: 3.0 Gb/s)Why SATA3 drive on SATA3 controller is connected at SATA2 ?
This would limit the drive to 250 MB/s read and writes (on SATA 540/280 MB/s).
Can you post motherboard model from dmidecode ?
# dmidecode 2.12 SMBIOS 2.8 present. Handle 0x0002, DMI type 2, 15 bytes Base Board Information Manufacturer: Online Labs Product Name: SR Version: 42 Serial Number: 42 Asset Tag: 42 Features: Board is a hosting board Board is replaceable Location In Chassis: Chassis Handle: 0x0003 Type: Motherboard Contained Object Handles: 0Their flexible IPs is a nice touch. Have been waiting for ovh to make that work on their vps servers. Will definitely consider this for a small project.
Anyone know what virtualization type is used for the VPS? I presume that all of the 2GB RAM is available? Does it also use a custom kernel?
Blog post says it has LSSD, but pricing page just says SSD. If former, I presume that you can't make it larger by adding more volumes (unless you can RAID0 them).
Can the 150GB limit be exceeded by striping multiple volumes together?
Whilst CPU is more powerful than the 3 EUR ARM, it's likely shared. I assume that you can use it 100% as long as there's no complaints. (it's possibly a C2L just split 16 ways, so that each VPS really gets 0.5 dedicated core and 50Mbps of bandwidth guarantee if overselling was not used)
@xyz it's KVM and cores are dedicated. If you're that in-depth curious about this product, why don't you just join the Online.net IRC, and you would've read the above info from the official source yourself.
dedicated cores sounds nice...
Thanks for the info! That's interesting, so if 2 dedicated cores, they can only fit 4 per server, with 8GB RAM. The VPS is 2 EUR without disk, so a raw revenue of 8 EUR for the whole server. Odd pricing, since the 4 core 8GB RAM server (ultimately weaker) is 11 EUR without disk...
BTW I don't, and can't, use IRC.
by the way I can't believe how many people are bashing them or they are always unsatisfied when in fact there is hardly anything better (product/value) on the market.
All i can say is that these guys are pioneering the shit out of the web hosting industry and I am thankful to them for making it so affordable.
I actually have this, I may dump it for scaleway version instead as I could scale the disk and the IPs are cheaper than main online brand lol.
And you not have to afraid about hardware fail , disk fail or anything shit.
+1
No paypal payment
Do you just round everything down? It's not odd pricing since the VPS is 3 eur (well 2.99) not 2 which means that at 4 VPS per 8gb instance, they are pulling in 11.96 eur vs the standard price of 11.99 (again, not 11).
If anyone thinks these are anything but PR getting, loss leading, experimental products...you're out of your mind. They aren't making money selling low end boxes for a few bucks. They're making money selling the high end shit.
@iwaswrongonce: Did you try to use their services ?
VPS is 3 EUR = 1 EUR (server) + 1 EUR (50GB storage) + 1 EUR (public IPv4). It's how they priced their ARM servers (IIRC you could get a server without a public IP), so I assume it's the same for all the others that include 50GB network storage.
Even if that wasn't the case, 4x VPS (12 EUR) gives 8 cores, 8GB RAM, 800Mbps bandwidth, 200GB storage, 4 IPv4 whilst the 12 EUR server gives 4 cores, 8GB RAM, 300Mbps bandwidth, 50GB storage, 1 IPv4 - significantly less.
It doesn't make sense unless they're overselling, or they use a really weird pricing model.
What's interesting here is if we'll be able to save money on not getting the IPv4 when IPv6 gets deployed ("in a few days").
Lot of little money selling low end shit = a lot of big money.
They are making money with both. The low end shit as you call it is fully automated they need a tech to take care of hardware issues but can handle a LOT of customers with no manual action... Once it's setup, it's easy money coming to the boss pockets...
No PayPal or centos but apart from that seems like a few good deals
No CentOS = no buy
The XC SSD must be upgraded to 250 GB SSD disk then it would be perfect.
Just to clarify, the lssd volumes are mounted when the server start and dismounted when the server is turned off? The data remains stored in the volume and there are not local ssd disks, correct?
Are theses lssd disks a san or some think similar?
Thanks
As I understand it, LSSD stands for Local SSD and that's why if you cancel a server with them the data on it is deleted.
I agree on that, the ability to upgrade storage would be really cool. But probably they did a study so that their new line don't take too many customers from their online.net dedi line. (The trouble ovh had when they did introduce the great-but-not-long-lasting (because of too much "turnover" 2 or 3eur KS1...)
anybody who can give me a Scalaway invite code？thanks
