Montreal. And yes, "out of stock" should definitely be an "anticipated" error.

I can squeeze you in if you really want it, but the nice hardware is in any location other than Montreal.  OVH does not even supply hotswap.  :(

(One of our nodes in OVH is pending an intervention to preemptively replace one of their crappy drives and thusly is pulled out of stock for now.  We plan to switch to a different DC in Montreal at some point in the future because of that and other problems.)

Also, in theory, if you are ordering an out of stock configuration, you'll now be sent to https://manage.tortois.es/vps/nostock :)

Dallas beta has reached capacity.  IPv6 will be routed in Dallas "really soon now" (no hard ETA, but soon).

Dallas should be fully up and operational, and more stock in LA has been added.

Went ahead and grabbed one in Dallas. Looks like Abovenet, HE, and Cogent. Excellent US connections. Could probably use a hand going across the water. I assume there's still some tweaking to be done given that it's a newly offered location.

Not bad at all. I tried installing a 32-bit OS which is said to be "beta" and it didn't work. 64-bit and now it's up and running. I would make a recommendation in the panel though: make passwords required for reinstall. Right now they aren't; I accidentally left mine blank and it went through. Of course once I realized I ran passwd and then put on my key, but still, there should be a password to start. Also, IPv6 doesn't seem to be working for me (I'm in Dallas). I'm trying some stuff, then I'll contact support. The panel is great though, full marks there.

IPv6 has to be set up manually, as I mentioned in your ticket.  For everyone's reference, here's the best way to do it:


ip -6 route add <ip>/128 dev eth0
ip -6 route add <gateway> dev eth0
ip -6 route add default via <gateway>
If you want to run a 32-bit OS, you must select the 32-bit PV-GRUB environment.  The default environment is 64-bit PV-GRUB, and 64-bit PV-GRUB cannot boot a 32-bit kernel.  The options are displayed when you click on "Launch".

We plan to add wiki guides for both of these things, as well as update ApplianceKit to support dual-stack.  The main reason why we did not do that yet in appliancekit-ng, is because we wanted to ensure API compatibility between both packages in case we had to bail on our rewrite of it. ;)
