    Virtualizor introduces support for... slabs?

    This has been enabled in Proxmox for years. After getting one brand settled in with Virtualizor, and not wanting to deal with all the minutia of OpenStack, I have been playing with Proxmox + Ceph and not real interested in the OpenVZ part anyway, but migrations between nodes with Ceph for...

    Baltimore Burns.

    It is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that...

    SolusVM cancelled services bug

    I don't know who's problem it is, but I will point a finger at SolusVM since I use their WHMCS module, and I have run into this many times over.  The VPS is terminated in WHMCS and from Solus but still is active on the node, so when the IP is back in the pool, and gets re-assigned, this new VPS...

    RDNS Requests

    I had been using VPS-mon and was never very happy with it, so spent the weekend trying out nodewatch and it has helped quite a bit, more for pointing out problems users were having and didn't know about, so they hopefully are happier with the assistance it offered them tracking their issues

    Hostigation offering 10% account credit for Bitcoin payments!

    Amateur, use a paper wallet https://blockchain.info/wallet/paper-tutorial True, I see it like a cash back reward myself. People who use BTC are generally more savvy when it comes to finance. And yes, 10% is way more than the fees I pay for other gateways, but other gateways are chargeback...

    Why Don't Providers Do This One Simple Thing ... To Make More Money?

    Is this the pay flow pro CC processing agreement?  Otherwise how could you know if the client is funding their account with a CC or funds already in their PayPal account. But I view "Add Funds" as purchase of future service, but maybe PayPal would view it differently

    Why Don't Providers Do This One Simple Thing ... To Make More Money?

    This statement I feel is very true, but I would like the option in WHMCS to provide a discount if paying via X funding source(Bitcoin)

    Any experience with virtualizor?

    I've come to a standstill with Virtualizor and KVM, using Ubuntu I've run into a network blipping bug, but it is more related to the system than anything, known bug in the Intel 82574L Gigabit on an old SuperMicro X8 board, so tried CentOS 7 on an E3 based system, and the more I investigate...

    Creating cPanel OpenVZ Template w/WHM Setup Wizard Fix

    Since setup adds 170mb to the size of the OS of un-needed packages, I modified this to add to /etc/rc.local on the 7th line /etc/rc.d/init.d/firstboot Then edit the last line of this script to sed -i '7d' /etc/rc.local

    Should service providers be able to refuse service based on country?

    China is my bread and butter. The US is the source of the most fraud.  Everyone has different experiences  I have many fine US and Chinese customers, but I dislike the blatant stereotyping of Asian customers. People are people, it's just the view out the window that differs.
