@VirMach Why OpenVZ plan do not have "Backordered " for EU location? KVM offers have it
@VirMach The performance of Storage Server is barely usable, any idea why? It is limited in stock so I doubt it is due to overloading.
Host node: NYHDD10GKVM2
VirMach:
Another provider:
Please open a ticket & pm me the ticket ID, I'll have a look. We still have a bunch of people running bench's, though the performance should be better by now. Will definitely check what's going on.
@MikePT Thanks for the help, it is almost 11 days since I got this service but there are still a lot of people running bench? I find it hard to believe this statement. Especially a speed that is as low as 750Kbps (Read) and 5Mbps (Write).
I am afraid that I will reach the CPU limit soon because of the high IO wait. I will just wait for another day or two before opening a ticket and see how it goes.
Not only that, we've got some users running torrents and abusing the node. We're on it, but takes time to track those properly. Open a ticket, PM me the ID, I'll investigate this for you. We do our best to ensure an optimal IO for all clients hosted in the same node, though abuse still occurs, and tracking the abusers is sometimes hard stuff. Specially on backup servers.
E.g: X client runs the initial huge rsync, creates a pretty big IO load, then gets stable, we could flag those as an abuser when it's not, simply syncing backups. I'd be more than happy to check this for you as mentioned @FAT32. We're pretty pro-active.
Disclaimer: @VirMach's replies are way much better than mine. I'm just a geek. Don't blame me. :P
Thanks for the fast response, don't worry I don't want to increase your backlog and will wait for a day or two
But now I have a difficult choice on deciding whether I should cancel my storage VPS with another provider which have fantastic performance (but slightly more expensive). The performance is always great with 100% uptime for 1 full year and even comes with CPU passthrough.
Anyone want the code for the free SSD32G?
LAEDHSALFFFO15TEL
Pretty sure that is the coupon for 90% discount for Flash Deal
If that was it, that was supposed to be one time only, so no reason to share, lol.
Also I've seen it few days ago, already used, it's not this
Reversed: LET51OFFFLASHDEAL
Totally not a Flash Deal code
@TomBG, @alilet you guys have to tell me how the heck you figured out to stick that "BUFFPROMO" in front of the "thatsallfolks"??! Was it just trial and error, or was there a clue somewehere about it (mention of that easter egg being for a "buffalo promotion" or something for example)?
BTW, from the way VirMach wrote it, should we assume promo codes are case sensitive? That would at least put a bit of a less load on the billing servers with all the easter-egg-crazy poor souls here?! (I did test, and confirm that "save10", and "SAVE10" work the same way, so it looks case insensitive but, if anyone familiar with the whmcs can confirm if it could be set per code for example, that would be appreciated!)
Buffalo, the land of unlimited servers.
) obvious to add that prefix too this too. VirMach said they are low on stock, only they have some free space in Buffalo 
.
The code-prefix was used few times here and there, so it was (kinda, I failed first time
The catch was to use annual billing, not monthly. No idea why (I mean I know - it still cost like 0.7$ for a year, for a monthly 0.07$ the payment processors fees would be muuuuuuuuuuuch more than that, in total, for 5 years. I am not even sure if they get anything if we paypal 0.7$ tbh
)
Codes are not case sensitive, you can type BUFFPROMO buffPrOmO or w/e you like.
It was trial and error. I didn't even know the first part which is BUFPROMO at all at first but then I read some replies and noted that some codes start with BUFPROMO so I started trying different combinations until I found it.
I'm the first to post in this thread today!
Guys, come on, we have to keep this thread alive until BF 2019!
Good luck with your BF.
I mean by the time we had this easter egg there were multiple forced-Buffalo offers where it had that in front, so I figured people could easily figure that out since it was another post about Buffalo-only offers.
32G is still out there.
If this happens we'll have an extra special deal for 2019. I'm only saying this because I know it won't happen
Challenge accepted ?
Challenge accepted! You better be giving free servers right and left to everyone if it does happen.
Also, I received a migration ticket from you, it's great that it's being done as it means I get a free upgrade... on top of free server but I find it funny that you said that the server is manually activated and it still ended up on the wrong node.
You messed/challenged the wrong people LOL!
You will be surprised.
Someone will just have to write a posting bot for one of their idle VirMach VPSs.
"extra special deal"
16 core, 2TB disk, 8M ram, etc...
And it would still sell out
10GB transfer a month at 10Gbps.
8M RAM?
.640K bandwidth ... should be enough for anyone
Exactly, virmach didn't promise a good deal, just an "extra special" one.
Okey guys, let this thread die. Save your energy for Christmas Flash Deals, right @VirMach? ;-)
Let me check-in to this thread for today.
BF2019 you say?
