You guys are fast!
@serverian Any plans for this in the UK?
We'll do Netherlands (nForce's 10Gbit network) in a few weeks. No plans for UK at the moment. However, UK -> NL should get you good speeds.
Signed up and have it running already. So far so good. Already completed a backup of one of my production servers. Be sure to follow the simple install directions at the bottom of the welcome email. Trying to follow Indera's stuff from the control panel gets you nowhere but the land of frustration.
We'll take 400Gb in NL, had a customer asking today
Is this work in openvz server (cPanel) ?
No it won't work with openvz as it needs it's own kernel. They have reportedly been going to release an OVZ compatible plugin but it does not seem to be getting an updates.
@serverian Out of interest, how forthcoming were Idera about letting you use their names and branding? Assuming you are affiliated with them in some way.
They are fine with it
I'm sure their reply was, "For you my dear, anything…" Good luck with the service.
Four wifes and a Mercedes later.......
I don't know much about R1Soft backup, but I take it that the $4 is per server, although different servers can be backed up to the 100GB offered.
Is recovering the image to a new server a matter of start with a custom iso and retrieving an image from one of your backups?
Yes, it has a few different methods to do it: http://wiki.r1soft.com/display/ServerBackup/Perform+a+bare-metal+restore
Pricing structure is simple:
$4 per each 100GB space.
$4 per each server you want to backup (first one is included)
>
Simple, but not simple enough because I'm still confused
It's clear that $4 gets me 100GB of space to back up 1 server.
But say I want a second server backed up, which is also clear that I need to pay $4 extra for.
But does that $4 extra for the second server mean I'm backing up 2 servers to the original 100GB of space, or is it now 2 servers to 200GB space?
To backup 2 servers into 100GB space, you need to purchase one additional license. So it'll be $8/month
But to backup two servers into two 100GB spaces (200GB worth in two spaces) it would be $8 as well?
To backup 2 servers in 200GB:
Total: $12/month
I think he ment that for $8 he can get two accounts. Each account has one agent and 100gb.
Adding additional storage and agents to ONE account would actually be more expensive.
Unless there is a rule/policy to only allow one product per person?
Yes, if you purchase 2 x 100GB, you'll get them for $8/month total. That would give you 2 free licenses.
My bad.
Nah. You are not bad, not just good enough.
Love your products anyway.
Unfortunately they have already discontinued selling the product as they said it didnt scale well enough. LOL. Anyone that has worked with r1soft already knows this quite well. The price for just the licenses is pretty good though.
You mean r1softstorage.com discontinued selling backup service? I just saw their site today and took a look at their service, it looks interesting. I was wondering how they can overcome the slowness if they have many backup servers. I was struggling with the r1soft performance in the past whole year. Today, I finally make the backup server disk run faster after tuning the Linux IO scheduler.
Yup they discontinued it, I sent them a ticket last week asking when they would have more in stock and I was told they would no longer be offering it (I think you can still buy the licenses from them though).
I was so looking forward to use their service
Thats a shame, if you need a place to store your stuff check us out! Only £0.01/gb BIGvps.io
