OVH IP between france and germany

darvildarvil Member
in General

I got a new server in limburg and I was under the impression that I was able to transfer the additional IPs between france and german DCs. Was that a complete misunderstanding or is it only between specific datacenters? I thought I ask now since I don't want to get burn again.

    It depends on what kind of IP you try to transfer. Only floating/failover IPs can be transferred within a region (eu-west in your case).

    go to you ip-management -> https://www.ovh.com/manager/#/dedicated/ip/failover?unused=0

    click the tab with "additional IP" ; choose your IP and click on the 3 dots
    -> move additional IP

    Well, actually I got a few KS servers in rbx and gra and I ordered a few IPs in france.
    eu-west-rbx
    eu-west-gra

    Now I got a sys server in Limburg (eu-west-lim) and I'm trying to move those IPs there. I'm not seeing the limburg server as destination. Could it be because of the KS -> SYS?

    Yes, just order new IPs and let the old ones expire (or cancel them if attached).

    Limburg is not part of the magic triangle of GRA,RBX,SBG.
    Only that triangle can move failover ips between data centers.

    In other DCs (like LIm or WAW or ERI or BHS), the IP is bound to the DC.

    This.

    If you want to keep the IP still, use a GRE tunnel.

    The real pity about the magic triangle mentioned above is that they don't offer VPS in RBX at the moment...

    Only way to be able to use wherever (although it will still tunnel so latency increase) is to use ip blocks big enough for vRack and let vRack do the routing

    Weird, because when I ordered addditional IPs for my KS-Mystery it allowed me to selected their location from many places...

    That's just the location information in the database, the routing is identical no matter which location you choose in the dropdown.
