Yeah, not like they've ever caused a worldwide problem in fairly recent history or anything.
No trollface emoji to go here...
You need a template with SCSI Harddisk. It works.
wget -O- link/windows-with.scsi.gz | gunzip | dd of=/dev/sda
can you please share more steps to do this...should I first provision with an available OS and sideload in any manner?
Great price , installing openfire now

You log in with your main Hetzner account which does have 2FA. But, there is a link to turn off the 2FA, presumably by email confirmation (I haven't tried it). So it becomes as weak as the email account you use with them, if that's how they do it.
In general terms (in theory), you should install Windows on your own virtual machine (local KVM\Hyper-V hypervisor), attach virtio-iso, install Virtio SCSI,Virtio Network,etc Virtio drivers, set up RDP, make an image (dd for Linux\KVM, or reboot in Clonezilla for Hyper-V), Then "restore" the image on hetzner cloud machine.
... but I'd prefer KVM and nested virtualization (disabled in Hetzner cloud for today; Hetzner
support is silent on my ticket)
Thanks, not for faint-hearted like me I think, will wait for OOB support from hetzner if it comes through, thanks again.
Hetzner answer:
Don't tell me you're surprised.
There is something unusual about Hetzner's Debian 9.3 installation image, at least for these VM's, causing the apt-get PATH issues mentioned further above. I got back a ticket response saying "That sounds like a configuration issue on your server. As we do not offer any software support we can't help you." Well yes, it's a configuration issue, but it only happens with Hetzner's installation image as far as I can tell. I brought up Debian 9.3 on a DO droplet just to be sure, and the issue didn't occur there. I haven't yet dug into exactly what's different but it seems odd that apt-get should expect /sbin to be on the path.
That sounds like a configuration issue on your server. As Hetzner doesn't offer any software support they probably can't help you.
No, I do not think so. There is something wrong with the iso hetzner provided, thus it should be corrected by themselves.
Yes, that sounds like a configuration issue on your server. As they do not offer any software support they can't help you.
Edit: ;-)
Can we run rutorrent?

Sure, just remember that it's Hetzner - don't do anything illegal or you'll have a short stay.
I'm seeing really disappointing transfer speed from Hetzner to Linode (Newark) when using their speedtest server. wget http://speed.hetzner.de/1GB.bin took 23 minutes to complete (average 739KB/s). By comparison, I transferred a 1GB test file from a Clouvider VM (London) in 29 seconds (35.7MB/s) - that's with TCP BBR enabled, which will help a little. Is there a problem with the speed test server, or are people also seeing similar problems with Hetzner VMs?
Hetzner have indicated on Twitter that the networking team are taking a look at least.
I can work around the issue by setting PATH in my shell, so I don't particularly need help from them about it. But they should fix their installation image to do what everyone else's does, so other people won't hit the same problem. I'll try to figure out what's going on with it though. Not tonight, it's late.
I was mechanically repeating what @maldovia wrote, who was repeating what Hetzner said. I don't know whether @maldovia was serious, but I certainly wasn't! (See my added ";-)".)
Given the PATH problem that you described, the Debian image seems to be broken in this respect, I would definitely agree.
I'm holding off on netflix subscription, because I know that LET is going to be Hetzner entertainment for a few weeks.
I have an idea. I'll switch to OVH support mode.
Please send iperf.

Perhaps you still have an active account with us already? Normally first-time customers are asked for an ID to try to prevent abuse and fake orders. --Katie, Marketing
I imagine that it's a Debian template that Hetzner provide and not an original Debian ISO.
Woah! I can't wait to hear more about that.
Yes, you can restore a snapshot to any server with the same or larger disk size.
Thanks! --Katie, Marketing
My account also no need verification. Well i'm not an abuser though.
@WSS @asb @IAlwaysBeCoding - In general, we don't have a problem with those other uses. However, if your CPU is in use 24/7 we will look into it. If the usage seems consistant with cypto currency mining, we will terminate the server and will also not allow the customer to create any new servers. We will not tolerate any violations of our system polices. --Katie, Marketing

I'm curious if the Ceph will suck as badly as it does with OVH. Where it's total disaster. During the last 7 days, multiple servers have crashed during Ceph failing / day.
