I'm planning to install bitwarden_rs as well, just wondering how much resource intensive is it? I skipped the $4.5 VPS thinking it might not be enough for it.
How are you handling the backups for bitwarden? Does it have some inbuilt automated off-site (Google drive, Dropbox or FTP etc.) backup feature or have you set up the backups manually?
Actually same questions for Gitea as well. I would like to install both of these with regular automated off-site backups.
bitwarden_rs is very lightweight, you can run it on a 256mb box. Gitea too. You can host both them on 512mb.
I do backup with a script, tar then rsync & rclone.
@VirMach may i want to request deal with 2 vCPU , 2GB of RAM and 10GB SSD , 100 GB of Bandwidth , anywhere location, $5/year ?
Amsterdam offer
Thanks.
Sorry, another question. Would it be possible to setup a cluster of these services, e.g. I install bitwarden on 3 different servers (at 3 different locations) and if one of the server goes down, other two would still be available. Will I have to use rsync to keep all 3 bitwarden installations in sync or is there a better option to handle this?
A more sophisticated (and maybe convoluted?) setup would be using something like Kubernetes or Docker Swarm.
You and basically everyone else haha, that would be one of the better deals so far. He's usually pretty accommodating with requests, but you've got to keep the specs/price reasonable compared to all of the deals, not just the best ones.
I don’t have this complicated structure because I think it will only make things more unexpected. I do have two installation, one is current using, another is one day behind. A relatively old version is acceptable since I am rarely create new account.
This is usually referred to as a "high availability" setup. A Google search for "Bitwarden High Availability" may have some useful results, otherwise you could ask in a separate post here or on Serverfault or some similar site.
Often, a HA setup is achieved by using a database (eg. MySQL) that's instantly replicated. When the master goes down, you fail over to the replicas.

A very decent one!
Thanks, will take a look into it.
Fair enough, thanks!
Perfect, thanks a lot! I'll do some reading on HA setup and see if I'm able to set something up like that.
This honestly isn't the worst deal. That's 2 more vCOREs over the last 8GB deal for $23. The cores on Virmach are pretty weak, especially when you take load limits into account.
The low HDD space is really what holds me back.
@VirMach how about its with price $8/year? please

@Virmach no multi-IPs?
I didn't even notice! All deals have been 1 ip 🤨
We have enough IPs to give out more than one, but we refrain because it's a lot of abusers and we're also going to eventually move to colocation so we won't have ColoCrossing's infinite IPs they got with ARIN.
I'm guessing this question has been asked, and answered tens of times on this forum, but, if you (excuse my laziness, and) don't mind, would you share your planned use cases for multi-ip VM(s)?
I do remember mention of a DNS server (I'm guessing instead of really running 2 servers, one server will take care of both entries in domain name record?)...
@Virmach the site has been incredibly stable after all the initial drama. Your hard work paid off.

Can this configuration be opened for flash purchase again?
Personally, I like multiple IPs on a system so I can consolidate various IRC bouncers and similar apps. I run bncs and bots for several old IRC friends, and each one having its own IP ensures no bans for clones, plus lets me set rDNS for a vanity vhost on networks that don't mask hostnames. That's a pretty specific use case though.
Re: dedicated IPs.
My classic use case is for select ecommerce sites but also to further 'isolate', when for example using a specific domain for Nextcloud. DNS server doesn't come into it, as it's a waste of time/effort having two on the same VPS.
(I almost bought the cheap Dallas one for a further nameserver - was very tempted.)
My BF2019 NY 2GB RAM 2vCPU 4IP 50GB (HDD?) is great for this purpose, though I don't have any real important sites on it. If another similar one came up in say NYC/ATL/TX (NY at a push) at a decent price then I'd have to grab it. Anywhere, except the Asia-traffic West.
[Edit] As above, if a secondary IP attracts an email block, it doesn't affect the main server IP.
Running multiple small services on the same VM. Obviously not very usable with 256MB RAM.
Does this mean you'll finally have native IPv6???
I'm surprised you haven't moved to colo yet... Given the size of your customer base, I would have thought it'd be more financially viable to own your own hardware rather than renting.
The next VirBot offer will probably have 10GB RAM and 1GB disk
I like more IPs so I can bot more shoes!
It is clear that VirMach has a shortage of SSDs at the moment. There are so many unbalanced deals where SSD is the most imbalance factor and bottleneck.
Thinking of installing Windows 10 32bit on one of these Flash deals that have at least 1.5GB ram and 30GB storage.
My previous approach to install Windows without touching ISO upload normally requires dd a windows image that contains virtio drivers and hopefully the VM boot.
Netboot.xyz personally I have not tried installing windows, as netboot.xyz may need large amount of RAM.
Does Wimlib imaging installation using rescue mode tested by anybody before??
