You order, fsck delivers.
I guess that @jiajieit's telegram could be taken in two ways:
(i) [Hey you all,] expect fsck to end soon[!]
or
(ii) [I personally] expect fsck to end soon[.]
By the way, Nekki, maybe time to think about updating your signature? :-)
cociu and his "Hosting company" is unprofessional. Just look how he handle issues on LET. He was atleast one time banned on LET. I think its your own fault to go with him.
Deconstructing a comment to work out all its potential meanings is like, so boring, yo.
Eh, effort.
lol , and you are ?
Pretty much every provider I've been with has made a mistake, the thing that I judge them on is how they respond to it & prevent the mistakes in the future. I feel that whilst @cociu could have emailed clients about this, his attempts to ensure that no data has been lost are great, and he is extending everyone affected's billing cycle due date - I can't see much more that could be done at this stage.
The storage VPS was so cheap too. It's slightly cheaper than Backblaze B2 in terms of raw storage, and factoring in outbound bandwidth, so much cheaper. I'm fairly sure people weren't expecting a 100% uptime service at the cheap price for what they were getting.
You may be right about that.
I keep clicking on the link, wanting to vote, but always in vain. :-(
I never said someone must be perfect to be professional. But on LET somethimes he act like a 2 year old baby you stole a lolly.
we will talk in 1 year ... not the price made the uptime , at least i dont see in this corner. Yes we faild with 35 users from +2k so .... is almost 1% , and we fail because of human error ... everyone is faill in some moment. I reconose my culpability this time and yes we will try to compensate. But what to to with a such test "fsck" wich dont have any eta ? ....
man , go to sleep really , i have faill , i have ask apologise , i have promise 1 month free to all this users ... what i can do more except to ignore persons like you ? If "profesional" is to kiss ass to sell , sorry i am not the person , i like to talk eaven is difficult for me in engles , i like to know people , i like LET ... so you will never see profesional in Cociu . Cociu is a person bad or good one , i make jokes , i talk about sisters ... at least in the past ... so i am human not a kiss ass person who only want to sale ... so if you dont like cociu i always told ignore me .... did i mention your nickname ? I dont think so. About my ban in LET .... was because of people like you , acussing people like me who we work almost 24 hours /day to construct something in a city wich is difficult to construct , etc etc. I own all eaven the bilding , servers, fiber, and i give salary for 18 persons , 6 in hosting in 12 in parfumery ... so go to sleep because you dont know what happened in my home.
Ps : if you look in some "profesional hostings" what you called you will see is came here only to post his offers and dont help with nothing this comunity , eaven with a joke , or at least 1 comment , but is not forgott to post his offers every 14 days ... so ... sorry i am not here to be only profesional ... i am here because i like let not only money, and definetly some persons from here can confirm , i give many free services , i have try to help everyone , etc etc. In change ... you personaly what you have been until now ? nevermind i am not interesed really about your person;
Please don't disturb @cociu while he's fsck-ing.
yes i am looking for one sister but ... i am to ugly at this hour
All is well brother, I feel for you man through and as I said in the ticket I appreciate all your efforts. You have done some good work here and I for one am glad to have this box and may order another when this all calms down. Mistakes happen and you have done all you can to rectify them and even kept people in the loop here.
Are you the 9cm guy from 9gag ?
@AnthonySmith
In theory I'm with you. Had similar thoughts. Considering the price range we're talking about here, though, one is pretty much bound to go @cociu's way, i.e. staying local, throwing in some disks and a controller and that's about it.
Side note: Based on my (limited) experience with broken arrays, them expensive raid controllers are often actually slowing down things. On the other hand with openvz you are f#cked either way anyway.
My personal take away from this is to not even think about buying anything openvz based and to carefully chose a provider for storage. btw I actually think that cociu could be a fine storage provider once he has gained the experience and has a solid setup (non openvz, of course).
Reasons, i.a.: I know that cociu has no problem ti throw hardware at problems plus he is not a one man shop but has some experienced professionals in his company.
I'll wait for cociu "storage vps 2.0" and I think I will be happy then.
As for the current (openvz) thingy, oh well, openvz plus super-cheap ... what did people expect? And of course I still think it wasn't the smartest option to start a new product group with 1000's of customers.
Guys , we have ETA , we aproximate 12 hours to be all in good condition. The fsck is finished and now we want to belance the 35 vms in 3 different arrays wich is take arrownd 12 hours. Thanks all for understand and once the server is online i will change to all users the next due date with +1 month for free like a compensation of what happened.
Regards,
Marius
Please don't forget to email users when this is all finished.
Hello , vel7 is up. We will change the next due date with +1 month for all this clients (this is a manual operation so we can tard up to 24 hours to change the next due date in your account) .

when that last GB copies:
lol , yes is like me in this figurine.... was in a small vacation this idiot node (5 days) ....
Great!
Just curious about, how many nodes do you have in total?
in storage i have tell before is 70. And we prepare anothers 70-100 but we had this unprogramated issue so we have delay...
Congrats
ok ok,You've been working hard.

Unfortunatley after all that downtime on vel7 the hard drives are still unusably slow.
--- . (simfs /dev/simfs) ioping statistics --- 10 requests completed in 12.4 s, 2 iops, 11.7 KiB/s min/avg/max/mdev = 16.7 ms / 342.2 ms / 2.20 s / 629.8 ms
Also on "vel7", I/O speed is okay for me so far. Could be better, but can't really complain for the price.

16384+0 records in
16384+0 records out
i have told we still move some vms in this node. We have put this online because some of users cannot wait more. So please be patciense and definetly finnaly will work perfectly.
running ioping for 10 seconds and dd tests on a pure storage node just boggle my mind..
Question: Can you store data on it at a reasonable rate?
Answer: Yes, case closed.
Question: Are you using it as a compute node?
Answer: Yes, well you need to learn the true cost of things and get serious, case closed.
I don't think there are any other scenarios to cover really.
