Yes, actually.  As I mentioned in another thread, that is exactly what he did with us.  We hosted his business at no cost for quite some time - and when it finally came time to start paying rent, he racked up a tab and bailed.

CONGRATULATIONS!

You are the proud new owner of a 123Systems VPS.

Your VPS is on a SLABBED server.

This means, that E3 server has a base virtualization of (my guess) Xen.   Then within that, 123Systems has carved the server up into multiple OpenVZ instances.  So you are getting virtualization within virtualization. Probably based on typical CC boxes, 8GB~ slabs and 4 of them.

Each server = 4 servers.   We are high rollers.  I have 100 servers, wait, only 25 real servers.

So much for upgrading and running things right on this move.

Silly kids, slabbing is for enterprise servers, not E3's with 32GB of RAM and no disk IO.  Hurry up, add SSD caching.

that would make no sense as you would get less vps's on a node.

It's true folks... Slabbed server.   

Folks slab them because of simultaneous process limits / related performance under OpenVZ.  Once you get to a certain several thousand process running total, OpenVZ slugs along, slowly.. Performance goes poof.  Slabbing gets around this with multiple process pools.

I'm not going to spill the beans :)  But it's old school knowledge.   The parent virtualization (both KVM and Xen) leave an identifiable fingerprint that is identical.

What is the fingerprint?

The cat /proc/cpuinfo info below is from an openvz VPS running inside KVM.  The provider uses 2 KVM VPS's per dedicated server. (see here)

Here is what I don't understand. Why don't these guys just sell their company for a dirt cheap price rather than just shut it down? Kids these days just piss everyone off. Was he a registered company?

Pretty sure you're on the wrong thread, we did not close nor have we expressed intent or desire to do so. We have been in business for going on 4 years now.

I find your responses in this thread to be less intelligent each time I visit. Had you taken the time to read his post, you could have only came up with two conclusions; He posted in the wrong thread, or he didn't read it. 

Furthermore, I fail to understand what your point is to begin with. What does being a volunteer moderator at WHT have to do with the topic at hand again? I'm sorry if I missed something (which I didn't), but I'm willing to allow you to entertain me for a short period of time.
