@ninzo59 Waiting for flash sale kimsufi
Definitely wait longer. I put my Start-2-S-SATA into rescue and waited for ~1-2h and it just pinged, no SSH access. Left it over night and now I'm able to access the rescue mode.
Its alive again for 6 hours, but nothing below 10€.
I thought SYS was a bit grim without a console but this is worse, especially as it's so inconsistent . I cancelled a re-install due to inactivity, after and hour & a half; when I tried again, it completed in about 10 minutes. :-/ At least now, I'm at the cryptsetup stage..
You got the installer up? Like not the Webinterface Script?
Reinstall works fine and quickly for me, just the Rescue system never works.
Just reinstalled a few times now, finally to figure out the partitioning which will allow me to do what I want without requiring a rescue boot.
Did I mention ISO? :-/
I suspect the provisioning server was on its' knees, with the avalanche of activity yesterday.
As C2350 is a pretty weak processor I would like it to jump to its turbo mode (1.7 to 2 Ghz on single core) on heavy load but can't seem to figure out if that is working or not. At least /proc/cpuinfo doesn't show any different on a stress test.
Any clues?
Try the Ubuntu 14.04.4 option and leave it 10-15mins. after a successful ping.
Install
cpufrequtils
and runcpufreq-info
. 2.10 GHz working fine on mine in Debian 9.Well, some of them, do not boost anymore, you need to reboot them.
This is one known issue, but there could not be found a fix currently.
May check dat.
Thanks. Thats the first thing I had tried. Isn't working well on Debian 10:
Will dig a bit more.
Thanks for the information. Will try rebooting and if that doesn't solve it, will reinstall with Debian 9 to check if its something OS specific.
Not that I know, its not OS specific.
Thanks, indeed, "only" took 6 minutes and then it worked.
You are probably right. Instead of replacing the OS on disk, I just now used the rescue mode to test it on Ubuntu 14, 16 & 18 with same results. It just isn't working. Could it be disabled in the BIOS? But a Intel tool i7z (though not meant for this CPU) tells me otherwise (TURBO ENABLED on 2 Cores):
Run this:
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=2048 | md5sum
How much MB/sec do you get? 230...240 = turbo working, 200 or less = not working.
Not working : ( Always 196 MB/s
No one is interested in Atom ones?
Grr. Yet another couple of hours wasted; another rebuild required.
Did I say that I hate not having a console?
It's becoming tiresome.. all I did was to add and LVM partition and split it up. Previous cryptsetup left me in a non-bootable state, so I guess I'll scrap that idea.
Perhaps best to stick to the SYS ARM. :-(
Anyone know what's with the crap about no separate var partition? (Not that I'd want it as a primary, just a logical one in LVM)
That's interesting. I thought all Online.net SC/XC 2016 derived servers (Atom C2350 and Atom C2750 with 16GB RAM) were running off a custom BIOS, so cpufreq didn't work. I'm getting the same as @akb with cpufreq-info on Debian 10. Your MD5 speed test yields 230MB/s for me (C2350).
They do run some customized BIOS, and there's a model number (from
dmidecode
):And the CPU on mine is C2338, not C2350.
Anyone getting poor I/O speeds in Intel C2350 server?
Got the same CPU, board and BIOS as @rm_ and cpufreq-info is working for me on Debian 10. I am getting 230+ MB/s when running the md5sum benchmark test posted earlier and disk I/O is around 100 MiB/s on the 1.99 server.
If you mean 80 MB/sec SSD speeds, then yes it has been posted before.
Yes. I posted a bensh quote a few pages earlier. Slow SSD speeds for me
I'm getting 50MB /sec in my one.
I'm getting 40MB/s on my 1TB SATA - Only 900 Power on hours and no SMART errors after Short & Extended testing.
Also disk running at 70c idle! Fun!
