What's the feeling on language? Nothing in the rules say posting should be in English.

Which are the two DCs in Dallas and is assignment between them random? INAP has three (from memory).
-
This is highly appreciated. Hundreds of "please respond to ticket" posts about something already answered really sucks when you can't then ignore a thread.

Aha! Assuming you are using linux, then borg-to-OneDrive is something like this: #!/bin/shTS=`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`export BORG_PASSPHRASE='myencryptionkey'sudo borg create --stats --compression zlib,6 /data/backups/borg/mail::$TS /home/*/Mail 2>&1sudo borg prune --stats --keep-within=1m --keep-daily=365 --keep-weekly=-1…

Thanks for the idea - complicated but I think I follow. OneDrive can be automated (if we are on the same page about what that means). I currently backup my IMAP folders to OneDrive via Borg (encrypted) then rclone to OneDrive a couple of times per day. This might be a good option for stuff that is already encrypted.

I looked more at Hetzner storage box. Unless I missed something, a couple of things that seem to be drawbacks compared to a VPS: there's no way to restrict connections to specific whitelisted IP address(es), and no way to make it the endpoint of a VPN (e.g. mount Samba securely). Not fatal problems.
-
I use iDrive on non-linux machines. It works and is OK (I've renewed it a few times) but speeds are slow, linux scripts suck (basically I can't get them to work), and support is bad. Quite OK, I just renewed with them last week. Note they use Xen. Stability is good. I would use more from Servarica, but find their pricing…
-
Don't know if anyone tried Jottacloud CLI. It would have the same problem of needing to change scripts, but pricing would be OK... 8 EUR/mo for "unlimited" (but lower upload speed above 5TB). So for 5TB it is 1.6EUR/TB/mo.
-
You're right that it is free restoring it to S3, but then getting it out of S3 has 75GB/month. Hmm could potentially go via an hourly VPS instead, that's an idea. Maybe I shouldn't have been so dismissive of @nick_, I guess I could reconfigure the primary/secondary backups so that I use a larger Hetzner box and get the…
-
Definitely open to that! An old $2/TB/mo storage VPS at Time4VPS is expiring in June, so I have some time.
-
Don't think HostHatch are doing $1/TB/mo at the moment! Both that and Servarica required annual payment for that price. Yes, the C14 glacier is priced OK, only 75GB of retrieval BW included though, and worse is that moving from regular S3 to C14 has to be done via API (can't upload directly to C14 as I understand it).…
-
I'm aware thanks, but that's priced 50% above the target range. In other respects it is a good option though.
-
Probably your settings are wrong.

:lol:

This is one of my most-used things. What is really needed is "ignore thread".
-
IPv4 or IPv6?
-
Perfectly understandable! Raw data is always good.
-
I don't mind naming names. My Inception VPS in Phoenix is worse than their other locations (London, Amsterdam), which I suspect is because they use a different (non-Clouvider) provider in that location. Similarly, UltraVPS.eu in Los Angeles uses Psychz and this has not been as good (in my experience) as their Germany…
-
My experience, a lot of providers' performance varies by location. High uptime in no particular order, Inception Amsterdam, UltraVPS.eu Düsseldorf, Avoro Frankfurt, and (although they get bagged a lot) some VirMach locations are objectively very reliable. Plus Azure & the like.
-
Had a similar experience with LAX storage a while back, it was a bad RAID card. The end solution was that I got set up on another node and rsync'ed the data across. I ended up losing some % (maybe 5%) of the data due to corruption, which I had to restore from another location. The point of writing this message is to say,…
-
Sounds like that would work, assuming you are somehow handling failover when one region is unavailable, but a pain in the butthole - spare domains, 1 month TTL, etc. The Bunny approach seems fairly clean. At first read it seems like LUA records in PDNS but with Javascript instead. I don't really care if it is free or costs…
-
The pricing is good. It enables some things that are in CF paid plans - for example, if you want to have multiple backends in different areas and have the CDN pull from the closest available one, that is not free in CF, but it is pretty cheap with the new Bunny offering. Not clear what the performance is like, can they…

I guess reducing population surveillance is not being considered as a solution.
-
Well yes, it is obvious after reading the post that the intention is something completely different.
-
From the title I thought you were starting to offer a spam service.
-
Hmm good question. It seems to vary a bit by location. In general I'd say "reliable" but not "rock solid". Probably in the Vultr type range of reliability. They have a "health check" system where if the container doesn't respond then it is shut down and redeployed. It can be configured in the toml file. I suspect this…
-
I actually do use fly for DNS, and it has positives - anycast for free/cheap, and the ability to hook containers up via Wireguard has proved useful. For certain use cases (like when you've got some kind of failover or retry logic in the client) it is good. Actually I just checked now and it looks like my containers have…
-
I am disappointed by fly's failover algorithm. The servers seem to go down more often than they should, which results in a "black spot" until BGP updates and a new instance starts. Then I end up with two servers in a single region, and they don't automatically redistribute (I have to shut one down manually or by API).
-
I went back and looked at my own stats for providers with > 6 months monitoring history. The following had 100% uptime in the past 6 months: Avoro (Frankfurt), UltraVPS.eu (Düsseldorf), Inception (Amsterdam), GreenCloud (Dallas, Chicago), BuyVM (Las Vegas), HostHatch (Amsterdam), vServer.site (Düsseldorf), VirMach…

Was there a particular part of Completed Orders are manually activated within 24 hours. that you didn't understand?
-
Past 12 months on my Avoro server.
-
For my critical stuff, the truthful answer is that I use Azure. For other production-quality stuff, I've had particularly good reliability with Avoro, UltraVPS.eu and Inception (at least in Europe). If you configure LunaNode block storage as the boot volume, that can be pretty good because they reattach to a new node in…
-
Not sure how to interpret that, but I settled on it being something about a fart.
-
I tried to resist asking what 5TB @ 1Gbps translates to in scams per second.
-
Yeah, the basic principle is to share the free resource fairly but give users flexibility on how/where to allocate it. Another thing in the "idea bank" is to allow users to choose their balloon memory. So you can over-allocate beyond your 128MB, and the OOM killer will penalize you more based on how much/how long you've…
-
I would say changing the firewall and killing network access to the container was a dumb error! :disappointed: But easily fixed. The panel now allows users to provision their own containers. The way I'll do it (at least initially) is give each user a total "RAM budget", e.g. 128MB. You can allocate it on whichever node has…
-
First, a big thank you to @Not_Oles for testing! He's picked up several dumb errors and made good suggestions. The ability to reset networking and reinstall the LXC container (same or new template) has been added to the control panel. Still a bit fragile but in the process of improving. You can (in theory) choose any of…
