That's the board we use. They have a 2T version which has dual 10gig copper ports. For us, we use the D4U since our Infiniband 3X VPI's have a 2nd port on them that can operate in 10gig & 40gig ethernet simultaneously. Francisco

I'm using them in 1U's. Cooling becomes a problem if you're rimming the cores 24/7, but then you'll just throttle anyway. You can disable turbo (at least in Linux) and that seems to keep it from throttling, but you aren't going to see past the stock clock. A 2U would probably be better, but that's a lot of rack space if…

IPMI is no problem, the ASROCK boards have it. Cooling is harder but so far things have been decent. The supermicro chassis i'm using have 3 x 15k RPM fans at the front that do help push a lot of air. I wouldn't mind finding a 1U passive and see if that'd work better than the active. Francisco

I'm not sure but that sounds like something Joe would've done :P There's plenty of options for affordable DA licenses. Francisco

My main concern with interworx is that it's still owned by a datacenter now. They'll put their own interests ahead of anything the market will want. Even back in the day it was basically that where it was mostly just a panel for Nexcess to use for their customers. I wasn't aware of a single host actively using or even…

Got our first test ryzen node up the other day. Runs like a champ. I expect to do a full Vegas replacement inside the next 60 days. @joepie91 anyone have benchmarks to see the performance loss? Francisco
-
A few people I know talked to them and basically it's there for the rare flood here/there, but if you're getting slapped and eating 30 - 50Gbit, you're going to get nulled. Francisco
-
Basically. Some nodes are quiet so we can allow some excessive usage but I'd need a reason as to why you're using so much on so little. Francisco
-
So DirectAdmin isn't like cPanel where a user can have their DNS cluster attached and their zones sync there. I've got a few resellers that run their own dnsonly boxes that are linked to their reseller. If you're in full root control of your DA boxes then yep, you can just install DA on a box and then setup Multi-Server…

The DO guy that was on hackernews mentioned that DO is operating at a slight loss but still has the majority of their cash reserves from the their 2nd round of fundraising. Remember, Choopa owns gameservers.com and is on a very short list of 'approved sellers' for any of the recent battlefield games, etc. I'm sure Vultr…

Probably not. Much of the 'startup mentality' for employees is to be changing jobs every 18 months or so to 'increase your market value' or some shit. There's no doubt they're spending literally millions in payroll & benefits every month alone. They're hosted in some fairly expensive facilities and have a LOT of VC money…

As the others said, no one is allowed to resell licenses. My licenses, as well as the hosts that @uptime mentioned, are "value added" licenses, meaning we're allowed to include them with a service to be used within our datacenters, but we're not allowed to resell them for external use. DirectAdmin permanently shuts down…

Is it finger licking good? Francisco

:) If you have service in LV you can request to be migrated to those nodes to help test/etc at the end of the month. The test will run for 1 month looking for any problems with the setup. If we're happy, it's go time. Francisco
-
This month... :) We'll do a full announcement but at the end of this month we'll put out some 3900x based nodes w/ NVME storage, 10Gbit uplinks, in Vegas. If the beta goes well we'll do a mass replacement & upgrade to all Slice customers in LV within 60 days with NY being in April/May. Francisco

I've had like 4 different Cogent reps try to get me signed directly with them. Troy's been the only one thats been there longer than a year. Francisco
-
Cogent's pretty brutal for sales. I'm fairly sure if you can't deliver they start chopping heads after a few quarters. When it's coming to end of quarter you can usually get some stupid deals from the under performing reps. Francisco

The Intel conference was bloody boring. It's CES and they were spending it all on AI and XEON's. Francisco

:+1: Francisco
-
Simply doing ./setup auto works pretty good and puts it into a "cPanel transferrable" state. MySQL 5.7, PHP 7.2 and the usual trimmings, etc. Francisco
-
Honestly we seem to have better reach use Discord or email than Twitter. The upgrade itself was done in around 10 minutes. We took snapshots of both the SQL and webservers, applied the update, logged in. Its only once we did our final check overs did we see that things weren't lining up. It extending as far as it did was…

512mb works fine. Might need a bit more temporary swap during compiling but it's fine, especially for just DNS. Francisco
-
If 512MB works then you can get a slice. Francisco

Looks like shit finally blew out. Francisco

Good job team. Francisco
-
You can save IP's for the IPMI by not putting it on public IP's. Please, do yourself a favor, put a small switch and a small raspi or something that runs a private LAN (with private IP's) for IPMI's. Francisco
-
Yes. Francisco
-
I pointed him to these forums. I think the main issue is that in the case of cPanel they have a map of username->database, that way you can have cases of someone having a completely different prefixed database to their actual username. I think DirectAdmin likely splits things at the 1st underscore and makes sure it matches…
-
I guess? I dunno. I bring it up because cPanel did the same thing years ago where they cut out Fedora, FreeBSD, and a few others they supported. It was just a real drag on their staff to both develop and support it. Mark seems determined to leave no one behind and I have a lot of respect for that. Its just makes it so they…
