  • looks tempting, what CPU model is it?

  • Do you have SolusVM?

  • @Devonius We our typical set up includes either Dual X5650's, and Dual L5639s. Some newer servers have E5s.

    @Aaxa Yes.

  • so, in other words, not good for production sites??

  • Ndha said: so, in other words, not good for production sites??

    These VPS are great for production sites- we were just highlighting some other usages for them.

    In fact, we have automated uptime checking called ActiveBytes (see photo) and a full 99.9% uptime guarantee.

    Here's some info about how ActiveBytes works:

  • wow, this is worse than my 123system crappy vm.

  • Saragoldfarb said: My coworker ordered this. I ran a quick bech while setting things up.

    We'll look into the speeds that you are facing. However, we do have per-container limits and shaping does take place in cases of fair use.

  • Well, the network isn't that bad. I/O speed dropped though:

  • Allow non-exit TOR relay and swap ?

  • agentmishraagentmishra Member, Host Rep

    how come vps, at different locations have the ips in serial number, in the same range and subnet.

    that too the node names are same…

  • Will you maybe get some other US Locations?

    @HostMyBytes I ordered a vps pool for testing yesterday. First of all, the order was pending and I need to open a ticket to ask what's the problem. After my pool was ready, I tried to create a vps in Phoenix, Arizona, but no matter what, I can't access it.

    Your staff just create a canada vps for me which is not what I want. I asked them how to solve the problem but they just gave me some non-sense answer. Could you really check it? Thanks.

  • @bearv88 Can you PM me the ticket ID? I'll have a look and get it sorted for you.
