  I'm guessing 128KB :P. Unless the CPU is crazily oversold.

  Mind sharing some benchmarks with me? I was planning on getting one myself, but I've heard they have horrible IO, is that valid for you?

  I'm not sales - that's what our sales team is for, but ok mostly still goes back to me. I was asleep. Great to see that you've gotten a server anyway.

  FlipHost's Black Friday is still active, Dual L5520, 24GB RAM for $49/mo. Though check first with them if they have one ready to deploy.

  Thanks. Enabled stock after getting a new set. Preparing to mass provision it all again soon.

  Pfff, i can't get networking to work on my Windows VM. Also, the new Kimsufi manager sucks... Doesn't have as many options as the old manager

  @joodle does your nic handle have anything at the of it after a '-' ? If nor you should be able to use the old manager with it.

  Yes it does, and i already tried it. But no servers are shown in the old manager v3

  Ah that sucks. When I got our SoYouStart server I tried using the v5 manager as per the email from OVH and it didn't work.

  Got told by them on the phone its because the nic handle has -sys at the end so can only be used on the SYS control panel. He said that if it was the standard nic handle format (LL#####) then I'd be able to use the new web manager or the v5 manager.

  If you have like -kim or something along those lines on the end then that'll be why you have to use the rubbish Kimsufi manager.

  I really like the SYS manager, does everything I need; reboots, reinstalls, rDNS. Also shows me interventions by OVH like hard reboots and component replacements.
