Thanks. Just got one.
for linux VMs it definitely works to set up like this. you might need to add a default route though (or use pointopoint). for LXC containers proxmox normally adds those route to your network config.
note that the gateway on ovh always should be the IP of your host itself with the last block changed to .254 (like you already stated yourself)
sadly I have no experience with windows as a guest but I guess it most probably should work out of the box as it is supposed to use some kind of pointopoint configuration if the netmask is 255.255.255.255 anyways.
yesterday I supported someone else by playing around with LXC and didn't worked at the beginning either. still the configuration was right and suddenly it started working, so just maybe it takes some time for ovh to initiate/complete the routing of new IP blocks? just a wild guess...
Fuck my internet. Started a manual install of Ubuntu last night at 6pm (for raid) - it's now 7am the next day and its still not conplete.
Spin up a Vultr (or some other hourly Windows VM) instance, install Java and load the KVM from there. Mounting the ISO at a couple hundred Mbps speeds things up.
Normally done in an hour or so depending on the network, so only have to burn a few cents in credit.
IPMI? Get a cheap OpenVZ VPS, setup gnome/vnc/java and run the installer over the VNC on the VPS.
Perhaps you can use rescue system and than use QEMU.
Is there any way to remove vat being an European without a company?
out of curiosity ran another benchmark set, this time including disk IO as the softraid finally finished sync ;-)
network speeds seems to have somewhat recovered by night at least throughout europe. upload speeds/iperf doesn't get faster though (getting 233Mbit/s to hetzner).
disk IO for this kind setup looks fine to me ;-) @WHT
at all very staisfied with that box, should suit my needs very well...
Well im albe to order from this link aswell...
Fake an ID from a non-European country and present that, probably illegal but it would work.
Alternatively get a non-European who has verified their OVH account to resell you this, probably less illegal.
Pretty sure faking an ID is illegal.
Haha, I think you can say that again!
OR you can just pay your taxes like you should do? It's already a really cheap server they're selling and it's only a few euros/pounds extra for the VAT.
I'm sure if you find a reseller, you'll end up paying more for it anyway.
How long did your take to sync, mine is 7 hours in and at 59% not sure if that normal.
[===========>.........] resync = 58.7% (2295544320/3906764800) finish=481.2min speed=55794K/sec
An error occurred while loading your service information.
Hmm, anyone else having issues with the dashboard?
Well OVH support is not premium, asked for Refund, no Response since hours.
Better keep my Hetzner, premium Support 5mins and less.
If YOU want refunds with any Provider known to not reply quickly escalate to pp to get a prompt answer.
Was anyone able to get an order through .ie website?
Compared to OVH, Hetzners even there billing and account managment is faster then OVH, drop them email 30 min response.
Well as for OVHs Phone Support I also reach them in a couple mins.
I have a sys server E3 and am getting 1.1GB/s IO. 200-250mb/s for a raid10 its to low i think? @falzo
As a provider, escalating to a PP Dispute for a service is also a quick way to potentially get yourself on FraudRecord or other databases.
It seems like it's only been a a few hrs, which whilst isn't great, I'd only be turning to PayPal if it'd taken a few days to get a reply.
I concur, hetzner support is top notch, I can't say the same for ovh.
After all, this doesn't seem like an awesome offer to me, since it's not burstable, all upload traffic is capped at 250, even internally.
Premium bw is way too expensive, who can afford it, surely it'd be nice...
Still pending my verification, but I'm starting having 2nd thoughts on this...
with harddisks? no way. hardware raid? may be but hard to believe that this will keep up as real life performance... I'd say there is simply caching involved, how did you measure that?
normal 7.2k harddisks should be able to achieve 120-150 MB/s if I am not mistaken, they physically can't go faster. so 280MB/s seems a good fit on a raid10.
for sure I can setup an OVZ guest with ploop and bench again and probably see more than 1GB/s too ;-)
In a VPS or on the actual server? What command did you use to test? 1.1GB/s is insanely fast unless you have a PCIe ssd card or something.
Nope, that sounds about right and I get around that speed on OVH and non OVH servers!
Well Hardware wise, 8TB and 64GB for that price isnt bad, but Support and speeds capped to 250Mbits is meh.
I rather go with 6TB and 32GB for less and I can use my 1Gbit fully if needed. With premium Support.
I have an old server from sys e3-1220v2 soft raid1.
edit: HDD (2x2 TB)
Can I get OVH to remove VAT if im outside the UK / EU?
Anyone wants to order one (with UK Failover IP) and resell it to me?
Also will an OVH.com account work for UK / EU sites?
1.1GB/s dd is definitely hitting ram not hard disks, or even SSDs
