Help me test a node? (aka free VPS for a month)

edited January 2013 in General

Hey everyone,

I am a partner in Versatile IT an Australian based business. We are currently expanding into online sales and decided that a low end range of VPSs was the best approach.

We have done all the testing we can on our servers but before going live the only way we can properly prepare is to put some load on a trial node. If this goes well we will get another trial node. The website is currently under development and should be live but until then we have the WHMCS default template.

If you have any problems or questions please submit a support ticket or email me at brendan[at]versatileit.com.au.

ALL FREE SERVERS HAVE BEEN ALOCATED!!!!
We have two packages available for this trial:
4 Cores (Fair share)
128MB RAM
128MB Swap
7GB HDD
150GB Bandwidth @ 100Mbps
https://versatileit.com.au/cart.php?a=add&pid=1
Discount code is DATFREEVPS

ALL FREE SERVERS HAVE BEEN ALOCATED!!!!
4 Cores (Fair share)
256MB RAM
256MB Swap
15GB HDD
300GB Bandwidth @ 100Mbps
https://versatileit.com.au/cart.php?a=add&pid=2
Discount code is DATFREEVPS

If you would like us to make a custom package for you to test please submit a ticket.

Only 12 of each are available.
Only one per person.
Anything that is illegal in the US is not allowed. (See ToS for more details)
IRC clients are allowed servers are not.
TUN/TAP can be enabled with a support ticket.
This trial will go for a month after that your VPS will be deleted or you can request it to be kept for a discounted price.

Test IP: 38.114.101.163

Thanks for your help,
Brendan

  • inb4 big abuse problems ahead

    @rds100 I'm more than aware about the abuse problems that may occur. Because this is just a trial and it's free I am taking a "no bullshit" approach. If someone breaks the very few rule of this then their account is terminated instantly.

  • @trewq Better make it something like 1 cent for the trial, not free. Then you have some more verification data for the testers (the payment).

    @rds100 Thanks for the suggestion, if abuse becomes a problem I will do that. I would rather this be painless for everyone.

    With servers in Dallas so I don't have LEB competition yet. :D

    Have signed up anyway to play around!

  • Where is it located the server? US or Australia?

  • edited January 2013

    Thanks.
    ps, I didn't get any email, not even in Spam, -maybe you don't email or- it was delayed?
    edit: I saw your comment above. Waiting for the email.

    The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed.

    The certificate is only valid for dedicated129.virtbiz.com

    Hm...

  • same here, i don't get any email

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider
    edited January 2013

    @AstroProfundis Thanks! I'll fix that once I fix the emails.

    @jcaleb Server are in Dallas. Australia soon.

  • Seems you're using WHMCS as the home page now, so where can I find the ToS?

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    ToS/AUP are at http://versatileit.com.au/tos.htm

    Email problem should now be fixed and all welcome emails sent out. Can someone confirm please?

  • Are the servers located in Australia? would be handy since I live in AU

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    @Ruriko Servers are in Dallas, Texas, USA. If the demand for Australian nodes increases as it seems to be we will expand.

  • @trewq said: Can someone confirm please?

    just got my "New VPS Information" email

  • Nice it has Ubuntu 12.04. But I wish when you roll this out you provide tons of other templates =)

    Thanks @trewq

    Turnkeys would be very very nice. And also templates with pre-installed kloxo, etc.

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    @jcaleb I can put a kloxo one on there now if you wanted it now?

  • Yes I got the email, and the Control Panel login notification email also.

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    @AstroProfundis Thanks for letting me know!

  • I don't want to share node with abuser. :(

  • @trewq said: @jcaleb I can put a kloxo one on there now if you wanted it now?

    It's okay. I just thought other people might need all types of control panels, as the common usage for VPS here is for webserver =)

  • Registered an account and ordered a trial VPS. Will start trying to put LEMP on once back home.

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    @jcaleb We will be putting it on there tomorrow :)

  • What would be your target prices after testing period?
