you forgot to drink coffee this morning?
Sunday morning… just having tea ☕️ right now.
Still thinking how I missed that post
KVM, in our case Proxmox VE, does not "think" in cores / threads.
AMD SMT is not disabled, as this led to worse performance in our testing.
There are two ways we could assign cores in this scenario:
Some might remember that we offered option 2 back in the day at server-factory.com.
As there were issues with the 50% usage limit and a lot of support tickets, we switched to option 1 for the new VDS plans.
You get a physical CPU core per VDS. No thread, a physical CPU core
@dev_vps
Happy to take your order
@amaeva080 check my last comment please. The CPU core allocation of your VPS are correct.
@heartbeat_IT - Thank you.
is there an option to attach a storage block (256gb or 512gb even HDD) to this amazing VDS ?
That would be perfect icing on the cake 🎂
I agree. It would make a formidable machine.
We can not offer Block Storage (yet) ;/
I can offer a storage upgrade at 0,02 € per GiB per month, as long as we have enough spare storage on the Node the VDS is on.
@heartbeat_IT
This is how I am going to save $10 per month to get this VDS.
You are forcing me again 😉
Got the VDS … the way VDS should be designed
The customized YABS will follow shortly
hurry up! please.
Pick one OS
Windows Server 2022
Provider template or direct Microsoft iso link source
provider template
customized YABS for this VDS
1 one physical core / 8 GB / 200 GB
how much eur/month?
€2 extra/month for 100gb storage upgrade
I needed 150gb+ storage for my use case
@heartbeat_IT
within seconds of setting up Windows Server OS, unauthorized login and RDP attempts started.
for LET folks, if you are using Windows Server,
1. please disable default Administrator account and use non-standard RDP port.
2. Enable audit security.
3. Setup firewall configuration
Update -
with security configuration in place, no more authorization attempts are even acknowledged by the VPS. Windows firewall is working as configured.
Damn.
Above figures of VPS allocation imply you could sell a single server at $145 or close to?
Could you do this @heartbeat_IT?

@dev_vps You can also configure the Proxmox VE Firewall via our Client Area to block all incoming traffic except the Ports you need. You can whitelist a VPN IP for example to connect to RDP.
In theory yes, difference is the spread of the risk. 15 clients vs 1 client is a huge difference. If you are willing to sign a contract and prepay for a few months, this would be possible.
PowerShell script to disallow a particular ip range
Excellent. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks @heartbeat_IT
@heartbeat_IT
Here is a PowerShell script that can be used to configure Windows Server OS after the installation
It sounds like you are relying solely on the os cpu scheduler instead of pinning the vcores to the guests, of which I think the later one should be the proper setup for a VDS.
The cpu #n and cpu #n+16 belong to the same physical core. You should assign 2 vcores to each guest and pin the threads (e.g. 0 and 16) corresponding to the physical core, to allow guests to get benefit from SMT.
Competitive. Going rate is $200-$300 and more. Cheapest I have seen is list $199 but available for $169 if prepaid for two years so your terms are fair.
