    sounds like maybe like @RoldanLT you have motherboard/hardware issues preventing install sometimes ?

    Later on I'm looking into building my own CentOS 7 iso images with custom 4.11 Kernel eventually - as that Kernel is needed for AMD Ryzen 7/Zen Naples cpus :) Maybe preinstall Centmin Mod's required yum packages too :)

    13th hour of the intervention on the NVMe server... locked out of everything. Can't even use the IPMI to access the server. They won't reply to my support ticket. Maybe they're replacing hardware?

    It's weekend too. OVH ain't known for fast support so probably just need to wait unfortunately.

    I don't think the weekend really matters they're a 24/7 operation. I'm getting an account credit for the other SATA server I purchased and that's rolling along smooth, even during the weekend... it just got approved and they're moving the credits over to the NVMe server.

    The weird thing is that the server does have a functioning OS installed. I can ssh into the server, but I don't have the password to gain entry. The partitions also have changed from the Centos ISO install.

    You'd think they'd let me know what was going on via replying to the support ticket. They've been good in the past about updating the ticket. It's been like 15 hours. That's a lot of time considering it's an enterprise server and the SLA for those servers. Of course, they could just credit time back when they're done and I don't have anything on the server yet, which they probably figured out.

    Finally got a non-OVH kernel install of Centos 7. They must have updated the OVH Centos 7 image or looked into why it wasn't installing after my multiple tickets and my tweet to the CEO, IDK.

    nice great to know and thanks for the update.. maybe one day when my budget can justify it, I'll try a OVH NVMe powered server heh :)

    Love to see when OVH provides AMD Ryzen 7 16 cpu / 32 cpu thread server with NVMe disks and Gaming range like prices hehe

    About this:
    So I can only transfer a credit if a new server has been delivered below 30 days?
    I'm planning of testing new Singapore Server now.

    I would submit a support ticket first stating that you've decided to get another server and you want X server time to be applied to Y new server. That way there won't be any question about the credit being applied.

    In the end, everything worked out. Got the NVMe server working with the original kernel, got credit for 1 of my gaming servers, and got credit for the second 6 core, 12 thread machine I purchased because the NVMe wouldn't work.

    Also, learned:
    1. You can transfer FO IPs across servers. I have so many static IPs for my new machine, I'm not sure what to do with them all.
    2. You can access the bios via IPMI, which is really nice.
    OVH has really worked out. Just be nice to the customer support people when starting a ticket and be patient.

    Just an FYI...

    If you look in the bios boot options via IPMI you'll notice that the server is set to boot to the network versus the hd first. This makes reboot times really long on my machine. It's a lot faster on my gaming server versus my enterprise server. I went into the bios and removed the network boot and it really sped things up.

    Just be aware, it seems that the network boot is used for a system reinstall. You're going to need to switch it back if you want to reinstall the system.

    For my enterprise server it was taking ~2 minutes to reboot the system with the network as the first boot item.

    I was looking at the bios and noticed that is was 1 version back - bios is from 2015 and the newest is 2016. Sent in a support ticket to get my bios updated. They're actually going to check it out and update it. I was surprised that they'd actually do that. :)

    Also a reminder for OVH users paying monthly - you price guarantee is only for the month you paid for. So if OVH raises prices, you'd be subject to the increased price in the next monthly billing cycle. So if you want some price certainty, you'd prepaid for at least 3 months or more :)

    then edit your nginx vhost config file i.e. domain.com.conf and/or domain.com.ssl.conf and change or add listen line if it doesn't exist

    for HTTP port 80 in domain.com.conf
    Code (Text):
    server {
  listen xxx.xxx.xxx.116:80;
  server_name domain.com www.domain.com;

    for HTTPS port 443 in domain.com.ssl.conf
    Code (Text):
    server {
  listen xxx.xxx.xxx.116:443 ssl http2;
  server_name domain.com www.domain.com;

    restart nginx server

    @Matt @RoldanLT for folks using additional IPs on OVH, is it possible to move selected IPs to a new OVH server or do I need to move the entire ordered block of IPs as one ?

    seems with additional ips, OVH starts to ping check the server from 213.186.33.13?
    Code (Text):
    curl ipinfo.io/213.186.33.13
{
  "ip": "213.186.33.13",
  "hostname": "No Hostname",
  "city": "",
  "region": "",
  "country": "FR",
  "loc": "48.8582,2.3387",
  "org": "AS16276 OVH SAS"
}

    get email alerts which i didn't get before adding additional ips
    Code (Text):

    so csf firewall whitelist ???
    Code (Text):
    csf -a 213.186.33.13 ovhreverse


    http://help.ovh.com/Firewall#link2 strange didn't have to do this before adding additional ips

    sounds like for CSF Firewall easier to put these rules in to a created /etc/csf/csfpre.sh bash shell script to load them

    in /etc/csf/csfpre.sh replace IP.250 and IP.249 with your specific ip so if ip = aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd use aaa.bbb.ccc.250 and only for OVH HG server products add aaa.bbb.ccc.249
    Code (Text):
    #!/bin/bash
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source proxy.ovh.net -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source proxy.p19.ovh.net -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source proxy.rbx.ovh.net -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source proxy.sbg.ovh.net -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source proxy.bhs.ovh.net -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source ping.ovh.net -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source IP.250 -j ACCEPT # IP = aaa.bbb.ccc according to the previous rule
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p icmp --source IP.249 -j ACCEPT # temporary, only for HG server

    make executable and restart CSF Firewalll
    Code (Text):
    chmod +x /etc/csf/csfpre.sh
csf -r


    edit: seems there's even more OVH end sources to whitelist https://community.centminmod.com/threads/ovh-dedicated-servers.456/page-22#post-48507
