Do you have problems with FailOver IP OVH?
Hi!
OS: Debian 8. / 5.196.111.160/28
In manual was writing: https://docs.ovh.com/gb/en/dedicated/network-ipaliasing/#debian-derivatives
If I do a similar thing with another OVH network, then everything works.
- If after the configuration your IP doesn’t answer to ping, please contact our support.
The manual even says that if it does not work write to support.
We are doing VPS based on OVH servers, and here the problem is that the network does not work, and the Lithuanian (LT) support does not believe in it.
I configured 47 servers and everything works. It does not work here for the first time.
Comments
I have same problem.
I ordered 8 IPs, they work fine.
then I ordered just 1 IP, no matter what I try it doesn't work.
support is bad. they can't help it.
You have to boot the server in a Rescue mode (provided you have no important data there yet), add that IP, then create a support ticket from OVH panel (instead of writing directly to LT support) and provide them with the root password to investigate.
I had the similar issue with 2 IP addresses not working out of /27 block, but I stopped after they asked me to reboot in Rescue mode since I already had a production stuff there.
I installed a clean Debian 8 OS from their templates, there is no data there. And gave root password access support.
They replied:
In 3:58 PM, IP was 5.196.111.160 just started pinging. We decided with support, but they argued yesterday that it does not work. Messages with a dozen are written.
I guess the resolution is to find a provider that actually cares.
We work in the CIS (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Azejbaryan, Turkmenistan & etc), there is no such place anywhere, and if there is something it is very expensive.
We do everything openly. For example, VPS nodes are just a small corner of projects.
Our nodes: https://vm.center/2017/07/good-node/abcd-vy-mozhete-pereprodavat-nashi-vds.html
For example, we do the nodes only via cheap IP and it's cool, that it all works on autopilot.
Automation, good network and cheapness decide a lot. OVH so far falls under these requirements. Other data center is not very.
You are using net-tools and aliasing, this is quite deprecated. You should use iproute2.
Remove everything from the auto eth0:0 and put something like that instead:
Reboot and if it does not work, show us your addresses and routes.
Or is it fixed?
Yes. They corrected everything. Problems were on their side.
These are the servers with Runabove 08/12/2016. We bought when they were cheaper and immediately to the network /28. Servers bought a lot, servers were taken away, and we transferred IP to other servers.
