    Does this mean 2 free months now since we already got offered a month previously?

    Does Warsaw have Anti-DDoS now?

    No, If you try to enable it, you get an error message saying "its not available on this DC yet".

    If you get attacked anyway, they will backhaul VAC from France making every connection go through the RBX/GRA/SBG PoP and then internally to your server @ Poland via OVH network.

    Whatever pings you had before the attack will be horrendous for hours to come, as the "mitigation mode" lasts forever even after the attack.

    Doubt it, it's probably for new pre-orders that haven't gotten the free month yet.

    Well they've announced that their dc in germany will be 'expected' to go live in april 2017. Hopefully it won't be april 2018...

    I see why they'd be holding off on bringing the other datacenters live, those are even further geographically away from any active OVH PoP.

    guess we'll be waiting a while for the discovery servers to be delivered, then probably an additional several months before they start all their servers in that location

    Hopefully they're released sometime within the next few weeks or so, sometime within January would be ideal tbh

    According to oles at mailing list, WAW anti-ddos will arrive in less than a week.

  • HadrielHadriel Member

    Hopefully they will get public cloud options open in these new locations as well. I expected them in WAW already.

    They're evidently opening up 3 new datacenters in the UK as well, and after they do that, 3 more datacenters in Germany https://www.ovh.com/us/news/articles/a2404.the-first-of-3-ovh-datacenters-in-germany-will-be-located-near-frankfurt

    Nothing new there, internal support and they are clueless.

    To inform and help clients via e-mail and telephone regarding OVH's products and services
To diagnose and fix the general and specific problems relating to their web hosting services
Quickly identify the type of prospective customer in order to provide adequate responses
Support demanding customers to articulate their needs

    According to oles in mailing lists, they have problems linking 3 new VACs to existing mitigation network. They are a week behind the schedule in WAW and its even worse at Asia.

    Equinix is also causing them headache @ WAW.

    Their anti-ddos has been deployed in Singapore and is currently in progress in their Sydney datacenter, servers still haven't been delievered in those locations but VAC network deployment has proceeded, and functions at a local level in Singapore currently.

    Sent today to OVH mailing list.

    Dear Oktave and rest of OVH team,

    We would like to know some things regarding Discovery offer. We are getting different answers here and from Polish OVH support team, so please tell us how it will be, because slowly people will became angry again. We would like to be clear about how it currently looks, and when can we expect to bring this service to such a state that should be from the very beginning.

    So, here we go:

    1. How about VAC? When it will be available?
    2. How about IPv6? When it will be available?
    3. How about speeds to current backup servers? When those will be normal?
    4. How about IP geolocation? When it will be solved?
    5. How about backup servers in Poland? When it will be available?
    6. How we can consider all that free months of services? I just want to know now if it is okay now to use this servers like them should be used or not - Not all of these things promised by the end of the year work correctly now.
    7. This servers can be used on production purposes or not? OVH Polish support is telling us that it shouldn't be used in production purposes, so what we're paying for? For being betatesters? I just want to know that - I'm not complaining.

    I do not want to be recognized as "complainer", I observe only a lot of unanswered questions, and after today's contact with Polish support team appeared my doubts whether this service will ever acted in a way in which some of us expected - ie. with working VAC, IPv6 and with the guarantee that everything will work as it should - because today officially learned that we are still "betatasters", and servers should not be treated as productional (while I have one thing there productively and do not know what to do next).

    Thank you for your time!

    Luke

    They're still in the process of setting up the VAC-protected network in Singapore and Australia, and currently Warsaw Poland is online with no protection with all data going through Thinx

    Construction has commenced in the West Coast United States datacenter as well as them starting to look to buy buildings in the United Kingdom and Germany
