Waiting lightweight application plans before I decide where to spend my credits.

I may have used up my luck this year.
Good thing new year is coming.

These programs are actually online, but do not meet the LET's sales guidelines.
We have launched 4C4G specification VM plans in the London, UK and Tokyo, Japan regions where we can offer the best hardware, and we hope that they will meet your requirements.

I'd recommend the London area more, with RAID1 enterprise drives and support for backups, and a host with 10Gbps bandwidth and over 100G of anti-DDOS (anti-DDOS is not covered by plan's guarantee, and also not included in the asking price).

I have been struggling to get Debian 12 ISO installation working on San Jose ARM Cloud.
After reinstalling a dozen time, I finally figured out the procedure.

Install the Debian 12 template.
Mount Debian 12 ISO, start the installation as usual.
At disk partition step, do not touch the EFI System Partition (ESP) at all.

Reformat the larger partition and select / mountpoint.
It must remain as ext4 filesystem.
Other filesystem such as xfs will not work, due to grub limitation.

When the installation finishes, do not reboot yet.
Instead, execute a shell, and type these commands:

mount --bind /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/ /target/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/
chroot /target
grub-install /dev/vda

Power off and eject the ISO.
Start the VM. It should boot now.

I seem to recall that we offer a debian12 image, is there a problem with that image?

I avoid using templates whenever feasible, so that I can be certain what goes into the system.

For "debian12temp", I noticed these files have been changed from their defaults:

sshd_config
nsswitch.conf

Moreover, I cannot start unprivileged LXC container.
This suggests some changes in kernel, systemd, or cgroupv2 setting.

San Jose IP address is stolen by @IPXO .

This is yet another MJJ operated "UK company".

Dear push-ups specialist,

由于原先在sjc地区使用的IP被置于空路由，并且多次调试均没有改善，我们决定更换SJC地区的所有VMs的ip。

所有服务器数据都会保留，目前host正在运行，VNC面板在部分地区不可用的问题我们已经知晓，会在更换IP后处理此事。

受到影响的所有VMs将会补偿中断时间*2的可用时长，以表歉意。

Due to the IPs previously used in the SJC region being placed on a null route and multiple attempts at troubleshooting failing to yield improvements, we have decided to change the IPs for all VMs in the SJC region.

All server data will be retained, and the hosts are currently operational. We are aware of the issue where the VNC panel is unavailable in some regions and will address this after the IP change.

All affected VMs will be compensated with twice the duration of the interruption in available service time as an apology.

Sincerely,
Isil Chang([email protected])

[IMPORTANT]Discontinuation of ARM Product Service in SJC Region 【重要】SJC地区ARM机器下架的公告

Hi,

Due to the termination of the contract with our upstream supplier and the upstream provider no longer offering ARM machines, we will discontinue the ARM product service in the SJC region on July 31st. Refunds will be processed according to the remaining value within seven working days after the service ends (if the payment gateway is available, the refund will be returned via the original payment method; if not, it will be refunded to your account balance).

VMs with end dates before August 1st will no longer be eligible for renewal. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Additionally, we are planning to launch services in multiple regions. We have already re-leased cabinets in the West Coast of the United States and are awaiting the deployment of new machines. We look forward to your continued support of our services.

由于上游供应商合同结束，且上游不再提供ARM机器，我们将会在7月31日停止SJC区域的ARM产品服务。并在结束运营7个工作日后按照剩余价值退款（如果支付网关可用将会原路退回，如果不可用将退至余额）。

结束日期在8月1日之前的机器将不再允许续费，给您带来的不便请您谅解。

此外，我们正在计划推出多个区域的服务，目前美国西海岸地区已经重新租赁了机柜，等待后续机器上线。也期待您后续继续支持我们的服务。

Sincerely,
UPSTREAM NETWORK LTD

Thank you for your interest and support.

We have had to discontinue service in this region due to the withdrawal of all ARM servers by vendors who are pessimistic about the profitability of ARM servers.

We apologise that we are no longer able to provide you with cheap mid-range hardware resources.

yoursunny · July 2024

We asked the provider to offer a replacement server with same amount of RAM in another region, but the provider has refused.
All we would get is a partial refund to store credit, as our credit card number was changed due to iPhone reset.

Basically, the provider stole our 传家宝 exclusive dealz.
The store credit can only be spent on their other plans that are substantially more expensive.

If the new card number is from the same FSP and account holder, the refund can be made to the old card and it will route to the same account as the new card
