    We will also most likely open up some space for migrations away from Buffalo for those who do not like this location, as we do not plan on having any Ryzens in Buffalo. These will otherwise by default move to NYC Metro and Chicago.

    Does this mean that all vps in buffalo will be able to get migrated including BF-specials.

    Thanks for the info! Can I know which category did you use when you submit the ticket? "General" or "Technical" or something else?

    I guess if the VPS do not have any OS installed and the reinstall system does not work, it obviously does not boot... Now I just wonder why Rescue mode also won't work

    Migration emails are beginning to be sent out. A lot of people will end up getting them. If you have any questions, let me know.

    We will attempt to open up some version of a pre-order/reservation system for those who ordered pre-order specials, have full-priced packages, or are in locations eligible for Ryzen upgrades or location changes (to Tokyo, Denver, Phoenix.) We will also most likely open up some space for migrations away from Buffalo for those who do not like this location, as we do not plan on having any Ryzens in Buffalo. These will otherwise by default move to NYC Metro and Chicago.

    I had some in Buffalo during previous BFs. Are they eligible for the migration too?

    Yes. There is no internal networking for now, so it will eat up both server's bandwidth quota

    @noisycode said: What about transfering data from one node to the other, both located in the same datacenter?

    Sorry I'm not sure what you mean but the 40Mbps figure I provided would be a ballpark average over all our nodes, in all locations, over essentially all time.

    @VirMach

    Didn't want to bother you with a ticket, you are on here a lot, so much appreciated.

    Quick question: I signed up for the Ryzen Earlybird promo, Amsterdam, and the promo page still says two weeks +, but in my Product/Services area it says 'Pending'.

    Does that just mean, 'Wait!', or do I need to do something more with the payment, etc?

    Been with you five years, thanks for ongoing excellence.

    It just means it's pending deployment.

    @VirMach said:

    Japan will be able to burst up to 10Gbps as a whole (not per server, not all servers are 10Gbps.) The average usage per server is around 40Mbps in general, across all our regions all the time.

    What did you mean by as a whole? One node? or you only bought 10Gbps from xTom?
    Are you going to throttle the speed for each VPS to 40Mbps regardless of domestic/international traffic?

    Greencloud’s xTom network has routing issue e.g. to FDCserver Tokyo. (Tokyo - US - Tokyo). Do you have the same problem.

    If Greencloud uses xTom in the same location, I would assume it would be the same network blend and would have the same problem, but if you order a service from us we'd push to get it fixed as long as you understand that network engineers at a datacenter and in general seem to want a lot of information and will drag it out for a long time.

    As for the 40Mbps comment, that's per single node, over all our locations, networks, etc. In any given one second, all our servers will be using about 40Mbit or 5MB.

    I can assure you that "only" 10Gbps is overkill and no, that doesn't mean anyone will be throttled.

    To anyone reading who may already have come across the answer to this: are all Buffalo-based VPS being migrated to a different location? If so, does this include those crazy deals given away during the 2018 BF?

    I don't want to say it will include everything, but there's nothing else I can say that would be true really.

    @treesky2017 said:
    If the Tokyo network is congested, will you expand the network?

    It will absolutely not be congested. We will essentially 100% run out of power before we run out of network the way we've set things up.

    However, of course, if we run out, we have no option but to increase our commit. Otherwise, it will still continue even if we do not increase it, and we'll just be billed high overage fees instead.

  • VirMachVirMach Member, Patron Provider

    @FrankZ said: Virmach has a average network bandwidth usage of 40 Mbps (~320 mbp/s) per node. As each node has at least a 1gbp/s uplink, the network interface each node runs on is about 33% capacity, on average.

    I know this is difficult to believe as it is for me as well, but when I said 40 Mbps I specifically meant Megabits, as in 5MB (Megabytes) per second. For all the infinite bandwidth providers hand out, only about that much seemingly gets used per node and this is on our beefy 256GB RAM + dual Xeon servers.

    @FrankZ said: If VirMach does not have enough bandwidth for the nodes, I would expect that they would upgrade so as to maintain an acceptable service level.

    Correct and we actually run on a port larger than the default commit so in general, we'd be under no situation where we'd have to really "upgrade" anything to maintain an acceptable service, it would just use up to the whole port speed and then we'd get billed overages.

    You're thinking of MBps vs Mbps. 40 Mbps is 40 Mbps. As an example, if Virmach had 25 servers in Tokyo, they probably paid for 1 Gbps commit but they can burst up to 10 Gbps and this 10 Gbps is non-dedicated and shared across all 25 servers. If everyone used up exactly 330 TB, that's perfect. Otherwise, the overage charges will be expensive and they will probably just pay for more commit. (These numbers are made up btw)

    @FrankZ said: Yes, at this time VirMach expects to eventually migrate all Buffalo VPSes. Mostly to the New York City area and Chicago, but other locations may be allowed depending on various factors.

    I don't think so? Unless something changed, I recall @Virmach saying they will retain some servers with colocrossing. I believe some people may be lucky and get migrated to e3s elsewhere, while some will remain on the e5s with colocrossing. (I doubt the BF specials will get migrated to ryzens, but maybe I am wrong)

    Unless ColoCrossing realizes that we weren't bluffing and changes their mind and offers to pay us an exorbitant amount of money to keep services here, outside of E3 dedicated servers, we have no plans on keeping E5's in Buffalo at this time.

  • VirMachVirMach Member, Patron Provider

    @FrankZ said: This is not my understanding, I remember VirMach saying something about older EPYC cpus in the past, but not recently. I expect VirMach will clarify the situation on if he will retain servers in buffalo.

    Epyc doesn't really work out for us. There are some situations where there will be minor improvements in pricing if we used Epyc over Ryzen, but that all just goes toward overselling/cramming people in.

    I'm saying this very informally but any provider using Epyc either really loves "Enterprise" equipment that costs more or they really love overselling.

    I've done the math many more times than I care to admit. Like an insane amount of time has been spent theorizing every possible build and every time I look at Epyc, I almost trick myself into thinking that it may be the way to go, until I run the numbers back and realize I've been correct for a dozen times and I only thought it'd be better because of hyper-inflated numbers in, for example, the RAM category.

    Of course my statement may change at a later time, depending on how Epyc motherboards and Epyc processor pricing changes over time.

    Congrats! I wonder how many of them are on VirMach threads.

    I can't tell you that without looking at your ticket and I can't look at your ticket without encouraging this type of behavior, so I have no answer for you. The message board isn't here so you can copy/paste ticket IDs, sorry. If you want to describe it a little bit and I notice it's a case that can be resolved independently, then I'll have a look here.

    Don't select San Jose or Seattle on Ryzen in the future, if you are provided the option, as those are not planned to have 5950X.

    If you created a ticket to get migrated and you're not supposed to create one (I'm not saying you weren't, I haven't checked it) then you'll be moved to our secret special customer group and will be migrated last. I've actually been thinking if we should keep one server in Buffalo and migrate everyone in this group to that server.

    (edit) Okay that's your order number, it'll be processed as normal.

    @pdd said: Does this mean that all vps in buffalo will be able to get migrated including BF-specials.

    I'll try to be as specific as possible without making any promises.

    Buffalo will require about 2 to 3 cabinets to replace. We currently only have one cabinet in NYC Metro, and may have up to one cabinet in Chicago in the future. We'll also have one new cabinet in Tokyo, one new Cabinet in Amsterdam, and quarter cabinets in Denver and Phoenix.

    That means you are more likely to be migrated than remain in Buffalo.

    My bad. I was wondering if the communication between two VPSes, which are both from VirMach, located in Tokyo datacenter, would suffer from 40Mbps as well.
    BTW, would appreciate it if you could have a look at Ticket #550087.

    Thx.

  • fanfan Veteran

    I must have been missing a lot of discussions about migration, and just out of curiosity, are you going to eventually move out of all previous colocrossing locations or just certain location, eg Buffalo? @VirMach
