    Since nobody seems to be using anything beyond a minimal amount of disk, what difference would it make if we added an additional eight 1 TB accounts? And somebody actually could use their full allocation if they wanted.

    What do you think?

    Thanks to @cpsd for replying here in the thread and to one other Neighbor for replying privately. I'd be grateful if our other Neighbors chimed in. I hope for unanimous consent on this one. Thanks again!

    Just like cpu bursts, storage bursts upto 200 percent or 1 TB. Default being 500 GB. That would be quite interesting

    Hey Guys! I'm thinking a Nodeupdate and a reboot might be good. So, reboot coming soon, unless I hear from somebody who has an issue. Thanks!

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

  • Not_OlesNot_Oles Hosting ProviderContent Writer

    Also, there might be one VPS which seems to be still running but which, as of a few days ago, stopped sending and receiving network data. Has someone given up on his VPS? Thanks!

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    As of July 2 11:41:33 PM UTC 2024 all the bashvm VPSes seem to have auto-restarted okay. Although not posted here, I can see VPS network activity. @subenhon had a couple of hand made VPSes which might need restarting by hand or a cron job set up to restart them.

    The single VPS I mentioned yesterday that had seemed to stop network activity did resume yesterday, shortly after I posted about it, and long before today's reboot.

    Congrats to @babywhale for bashvm, which is doing a great job! :star: Congrats and thanks to @crunchbits for wonderful Crunchy! <3

    Any issues, please let me know! Best wishes!

    Hello!

    Maybe it might be time for another update and reboot for the Ubuntu OS which is running on Crunchy.

    Anybody have any special need for stability right now, or can I just go ahead with the update and reboot?

    Thanks! Special thanks to @crunchbits for wonderful Crunchy! And to @babywhale for bshvm! <3

    Okay, a very quick glance suggests that everything might be working okay. Congrats to Crunchy and bashvm! :star:

  • Hello @Not_Oles, I want to buy this VPS via Bitcoin, can you do it?

    Hi @ExAjiMag!

    What might happen if we were to swap one of your VPSes for a Crunchy VPS? No Bitcoin would be needed.

    Crunchy is sold out now. We could do some more Crunchy VPSes, but only if every existing neighbor unanimously consented to the overselling. So far I think only two neighbors have consented.

    Crunchy still seems to be running great! Thanks to @crunchbits for wonderful Crunchy! <3 Thanks to @babywhale for wonderful BashVM! <3

    What might happen if we were to swap one of your VPSes for a Crunchy VPS? No Bitcoin would be needed.

    Wow!

    Wow x 2!

    Looks like you are going to get into really big trouble -- if you are not there already -- and if what you are posting isn't fake. I don't envy your position. Nevertheless, I hope everything somehow will turn out okay for you, eventually, somehow!

    Thanked by (1)cmeerw

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    Does our node need a reboot?

    I think Crunchy is running okay. When you log in, Ubuntu says a reboot is needed. My personal preference is to update and reboot frequently, just to make sure that the lastest updates are installed and running. Sometimes, when on a Node where other guys have VMs, maybe reboots could be a little less frequent so as not to bother everybody? Notably, after the last reboot, all the VMs successfully auto-restarted, but some guys didn't seem to bother restarting services inside their VMs. Thus, network I/O went way down as you can see in the vnstat output below.

    Of course, as you can see from this thread, Crunchy has enjoyed several reboots previously. Maybe you're right to suggest that it could be time for another reboot even if there might seem to be a substantial adverse impact on services that guys are running. Please let me know what you guys think about another reboot.

    I usually check on Crunchy multiple times every day. Here below is the result of today's two recent check-ins. Please let me know what you guys think about the checks. Should I run additional checks beyond what I now am doing? And, about vm100. Is something wrong there, or is it just really nice that someone actually is using his allocated resources? Maybe our vm100 Neighbor might want to comment here?

    Thanks for your interest, Mike, and thanks for your comments! <3 Thanks to Crunchbits for wonderful Crunchy! <3 Thanks to @babywhale for BashVM! <3 Thanks to all the guys using Crunchy! <3

    Hello!

    Looks like a few Ubuntu updates and a minor version bump are available for Crunchy.

    Unless somebody has an issue with a reboot, probably I will run the updates and reboot about 12 or 14 hours from now. I will post here again before I update and reboot.

    Thanks! And special thanks to @crunchbits for beautiful Crunchy! <3 Special thanks to @babywhale for BashVM! <3

    Best wishes!

    Good morning!

    I guess it might be time to try the update, upgrade. And then the reboot. So, here we go!

    Best!

    Upgrade to 24.04 when :D

    Now, more about the version upgrade. It's from what we are running now,

    root@crunchy:/etc# lsb_release -a
    No LSB modules are available.
    Distributor ID: Ubuntu
    Description:    Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
    Release:        22.04
    Codename:       jammy
    root@crunchy:/etc#
    

    to

    New release '24.04.1 LTS' available.
    Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.
    

    So, 22.04 to 24.04.1.

    Ubuntu recommends the update / upgrade that we just did prior to running do-release-upgrade. Please see https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/how-to-upgrade-your-release .

    Now we might be ready to run do-release-upgrade. . . .

    Unless you guys really want to go from twenty-two to twenty-four, I am going to chicken out. Recently I had a lot of fun bumping through a few changes which seemed to be required when installing BashVM on Debian sid instead of Debian 12. BashVM and virsh and libvirt and qemu work great, but there's really a lot in there.

    Being conservative on a machine which others are using, I prefer not to do the release upgrade without having a chance to test on an identical setup in advance.

    Given that Crunchy only has until November 8, which is coming up soon, the present 22.04.4 seems okay for the time being.

    Always delighted to consider other points of view. Happy to do-release-upgrade if all our Crunchy Neighbors unanimously agree to accept the risk.

    Thanks again to @crunchbits for wonderful Crunchy! <3 Thanks again to @babywhale for wonderful BashVM! <3 Thanks again to all the guys who are enjoying Crunchy VMs! <3 Special thanks to @sh97 for being a great guy and a prime contributor to the entire Low End! <3

    Thanked by (1)dev_vps

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!
