HostHatch Upcoming maintenance - Los Angeles Storage

OGBenchmark King
We are emailing you because we have an upcoming maintenance that affects your Storage VM(s) in Los Angeles.
....
....
Your server will be shut down and booted up after the maintenance has been completed. We do not expect any data on your server to change, but as a best practice, we always recommend that you keep the latest copy of your backups.
During this maintenance, we will make updates to the host server, and also boot it into our new cloud platform , from where you will be able to manage your server after it comes back online
....
....
I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

They're migrating all remaining locations expect for Asia and North Europe this week, aren't they?
Yep, quite a few locations
SG got migrated as well.
One of my chi nvme instances was migrated to the new panel
But it seems to have list the network ip details.
Running centos 7... any way to activate dhcp or manually setup the interfaces? Or only option is to reinstall?
Thnx
Have you tried console access via the new panel? I don't have an NVMe in Chicago specifically, but console access seems to work with my "legacy" NVMe servers in other locations.
Website: thomassen.sh
What do you mean exactly by this? Have you opened a ticket with us?
Does the legacy button have any particular meaning like is it removed on reinstallation or will it remain to distinguish between Intel E5 and AMD instances?
We haven't really gotten down to the semantics as of yet, but happy to listen to feedback on how things should be.
Several of my Legacy instances are AMD.
Here is what i see from the novnc console... I didn't create a ticket yet. Guess you guys have full hands with the maintenance..
If you see, my IP is not listed... It should have been there.
Please open a ticket so we can take a look. DHCP should work, static configuration should also work, as long as you're able to get to the console?
Why can only the old images be selected for reinstallation (like Debian 10) but not the new ones (like Debian 11)?
The new AMD ones from black friday and later?
could you help with a quick command to add my network details on the eth interface? CentOS 7
Thanks
What does your /etc/network/interfaces, netplan or network-manager config look like?
No, my old NVMe from like 2019. Think they were their 8th birthday celebration ones.
[donatello ~]# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 23
model : 49
model name : AMD EPYC 7502 32-Core Processor
stepping : 0
microcode : 0x830104d
cpu MHz : 2495.310
C7 should have NetworkManager installed by default. Try running nmtui and using that to change your interfaces. Once you're done, exit out and do: nmcli device reapply [interface_name_here] .
I had to run nmtui, manually configure the ip and gateway instead of Automatic.. and then reapply worked!
Thank you so much
I didn't read all of the dozens of migration emails carefully, but I did notice that some said the VM would move to a new server and others did not.
No, the VM stays on the host node (maybe not physically the same but equal setup like CPU etc.).
VM in Milan is supposed to be migrated yesterday? I still see it in the old panel, not the new panel.
My Stockholm and Vienna were migrated yesterday.
I didn't have time to play with, but this new control panel looks nice actually. Simple and clean interface with everything at one place.
I also like how smooth console access run. That's not the case with every host.
Seems like only IPv6 addresses with rDNS set migrated to the new control panel (nothing critical) and I will need to re-enable IPv6 later when I find time to play with but otherwise so far I see no issues.
Observation:
Seems like only IPv6 addresses with rDNS included can be added to the control panel which is okay I guess as others can be set manually.
Once added to the control panel rDNS can be changed, but there's no option to remove/delete added IPv6 addressed from the control panel - once added they stay there permanently.
Not extremely problematic, just a bit inconvenient.
Do you have IPv6 connectivity or is it just available in the panel?
Right now there's not IPv6 connectivity, however that was expected. With migation mail they sent also:
I will try to set it up later today when I come home from work.
My storage VPS'es, London and Stockholm, has been very stable. London was migrated one of the last days.
I think the new panel looks quite nice. And except for one ticket a good while ago, response times has been good, and service both stable and performing well. All in all a good experience
I see this for my newly migrated VPS:
" Your server is currently using our legacy internal networking. We recommend you to upgrade to our new private VLAN networking by clicking the button below. Please note that this will remove your existing internal interface."
Will this button rewrite config inside VPS directly? Or just add new interface which I should configure?
If you read the network documentation they link to it talks how on the new interface you can use whatever ip addressing range you want ( since it's a private vlan ). My guess is it removes the old interface and adds a new one which you can configure. I'm sure HH will correct me if I'm wrong.
Update.
IPv6 work perfectly if you follow https://docs.hosthatch.com/networking/#ipv6-configuration
Just don't forget to replace eth0 with ens3 in case you use new Debian distro.
ie.
nano /etc/network/interfaces.d/90-ipv6
& reboot
This migration to the new control panel went well by my experience.
Congratulations, you are part of the elite group in:
Routed IPv6 Hall of Fame
Include routed IPv6, at least /64 subnet, to get listed.
Accepting submissions for IPv6 less than /64 Hall of Incompetence.
Reading the docs linked to from IPv6 settings, I still wonder if the panel will replace my config files. (I have experienced that with other panels/hosts previously, had to set immutable flag ...)
