Hold on folks, we're moving on...
Mine is still reporting "Configuration file does not exist" in WHMCS but this update sounds promising.
Would be a great suprise if - whatever Ashley did - could also solve the severe performance problems I am encountering since the migration to the new infrastructure. We'll see.
Edit: Meh, still time to wait. As mentioned in the update mail which just came in, there seems to be a severe bug in CEPH preventing the storage from remaining stable. However, at least it was confirmed that our data is safe. For those of us who use this service to incrementally backup their personal data from a private dsl line with limited upload, this will safe us a lot of time. So, keeping fingers crossed, and let's hope they'll be able to fix this bug soon. Would be great if this doesn't mean to wait for several weeks of fsck'ing in the near future.
this. there is nowhere said that the host claims 100% uptime. he provides an SLA which he calls "100% blabla SLA" because he refunds (on request) even if smallest downtimes (4 minutes a day) occur.
I'd say given the pricing range that's pretty clever wording to say: 'here are your 2 cents!' ;-)
We have been making progress and only have a small subset of OSD's still being affected by the two Bug's in CEPH 12.2.x, we attempted to start some VM's however lost too many OSD's again.
To make sure that all data is kept consident and safe we have been advised to continue to remove all Client I/O from the storage system while it rebuilds & recovers.
We want to get your VM back online as soon as possible however wish to minimise and reduce any chance of data corruption due to client I/O (Read & Writes) during this point.
A further email will be sent out once we have been confirmed we are able to go ahead with the start of the VM's.
I can confirm your data is safe and held on the OSD's, however due to the 2 bug's within the CEPH Subsystem we are unable to keep these OSD's online to proccess the I/O requests to these PG's (Files / Objects)
By nature CEPH is built to be redundant, however it seem's due to a lack of QA on a recent release this has caused us to loose the redundant protection due to a software wide bug.
After this issue is resolved we will be sending out a further update with the future direction of your services.
Think that's a bit unfair @shot2. He's communicating which is more than most deadpoolers
A lot of that went over my head, but I'm seeing that our data should be intact still? In theory, at least. I'm happy for the fix to take however long is necessary as long as everything's how it was at the end of it.
To me, claiming 100% SLA involves a lot of needless paperwork. If a host is small enough, I might bother. But if it's big, nah.
No email until this afternoon but VPS is still up. Storage seems to be struggling though and current system load is ~250
Also I'm a bit disappointed with the move to the new infrastructure. Wasn't informed that it would no longer be KVM and moved to France. Control panel is not working but got access to Proxmox GUI to get some information about the server. Disk speed has been a bit up and down too.
But hey for the price it isn't too bad and I'm only using it as a secondary backup.
Yup, missa was just being silly :P
No critical data stored, very low price, regular updates when down, nothin' to complain about.
wat? don't take too much from the pink ones...
Anyone got his server back online already?
But nothing happened so far.
nope mine still down
If you read all the updates correctly they then mention after said update that there has been an issue with a drive and a ceph bug
The time details in their updates suggests the most recent entry is on the bottom. Well, however, I hope they fix it soon.
+1
Anyone tell me why it seems that I get error messages in my logs that don't have to do with my container?
I don't run Plex.

still down too. im getting fired.
deploy an hourly instance somewhere and put your backups in to have something running instead of waiting. you might want to switch back, once it's on again...
what product do you have with zxhost that is affected and where you're currently looking at it?
and what's the fuss about not kvm and france?
the backup server is in zxhost too. last week the instances were in different DCs, but they moved the production server to the same DC (Proxmox) this days, and i didnt fire a backup in another place...
so .. yes... im f.... right now.
and what's the fuss about not kvm and france?
I was in Germany on 120 GB KVM LET storage special (15.99 pounds a year) for the past year and a half. About a month ago it was migrated to an LXC container in France with double memory.
Log entries come from the /var/log/messages file on my container.(CentOS)
EDIT: The server was really good up until the move
so please if you can recommend something. i will appreciate.
Get yourself a cheap Kimsufi or Dedibox whenever they're on sale... Perfect for "critical production stuff" (lolwtfbbq) - and then you wouldn't put all your eggs in the same basket (= the very first sentence in any Computer Disaster Avoidance 101 textbook)
wat

??
I'm guessing his KVM was killed and an LXC container was created. Not a migration.
EDIT: I guess it can be converted, but I don't know how well that works: https://wiki.deimos.fr/LXC_:_Install_and_configure_the_Linux_Containers#Convert.2FMigrate_a_VM.2FHost_to_a_LXC_container
okay, thanks a lot for clarifying!
but afaik the actual problems are about the bigger storage specials (1TB / 2TB) running on ceph and those are still in germany and kvm ;-)
can't tell if there is anything wrong in france at the moment and if this related to the ceph issues (more or less doubt it though).
correct. But was not told the new VPS was LXC not KVM.
ok, sorry didn't know I was off topic.
OK that's fine then, it sounded like they converted his VM w/o telling him at first.

if you are looking for europe or germany it won't be cheap anyways. for storage VMs you'd either get low core/ram or it's gonna cost money.
netcup offer 1.5TB fast SAS space with 1core and 2GB: https://www.netcup.de/bestellen/produkt.php?produkt=1515
or a tad cheaper, quite a lot of ressources with only 480GB SAS: https://www.netcup.de/bestellen/produkt.php?produkt=1557
for US speedykvm might have some interesting plans: https://speedykvm.com/ though I probably wouldn't go mission critical on their cheap ones raid5 or raid0 either...
Nope I got the 2TB special, was KVM and Germany. Now LXC and France. Still uses Ceph storage and it's having a hard time atm.
