Server4You Review

That is what I'm going to ask, lol.
The system that I am operating from (CentOS 7) does not have any of the files in /boot that I need to modify grub. Nor does it have the current config of the Kernel anywhere that I can find on the system. (/boot folder is empty, except for grub folder. And grub folder is empty except for a splash image). It's not in /proc/config or /proc/config.gz
Any other places I am mising?
The problem is that I cannot use NAT (nf_nat modules are missing). Docker appears to error out with something about nf_nat. I can't even create dummy interfaces using ip link add...
For example:
[root@mycentos7 ~]# ip link add name test0 type dummy
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supportedor
INFO[0000] API listen on /var/run/docker.sock
ERRO[0000] 'overlay' not found as a supported filesystem on this host. Please ensure kernel is new enough and has overlay support loaded.
WARN[0000] Running modprobe nf_nat failed with message: ``, error: exit status 1
INFO[0000] Firewalld running: false
FATA[0000] Error starting daemon: Error initializing network controller: Error creating default "bridge" network: inappropriate ioctl for deviceI just emailed their support guys, I'll see what they say. SELinux is disabled at the moment.
-
Sadly, one of their support reps tells me that They do not support docker right now, so I told him that his competitors do and asked where I could submit a feature request, lol.
-
That is pretty crappy. That is how people use these systems these days. That seems to put a lot of extra constraints on this.
-
What about another container technology like OpenVZ or LXE?

I would assume no on anything that requires kernel-level support for various items. I was pretty much told to move to a dedicated host if I wanted to use docker. I was proud of myself... I almost wrote back "If I wanted to maintain my own server, I would just buy one myself!"... Oh well.
Their system performs quite well. I'm running a web-based IDE on it called Codiad (http://codiad.com/) for developing some personal projects. It powers right through it with no problems at all.
I'll throw some more hefty stuff at it. I'm planning to install Zabbix and use them to monitor my ZeroTier infrastructure.

See update 4 in the OP. The short, short version is... If you just want a VPS, these guys may fit the bill nicely. I had some connectivity issues with them this morning as I am trying to transfer some of my stuff out.

@dafyre - Check out Vultr Local Storage (VLS)
-
is that a new feature that they just added?
-
-
Oh, that is just their normal storage servers
We use those already. -
We've been using Vultr primarily for those server types for maybe six months now. That's where we deploy ownCloud. Works great.
-
@scottalanmiller Most people miss them.

My coughC@Ccough server has been working rather well as of late...

You might be the only one still on it.

Well, I paid good money for it.... so until that server just falls off the face of the planet... or somebody runs around cutting fiber lines again, I'm going to run it into the ground, lol.

Every 15 minutes... to my Amazon Cloud Drive, ha ha ha.
-
What tool do you use to upload to Amazon Cloud Drive automatically?
-
It's a linux script. It's called acdcli ... https://github.com/yadayada/acd_cli
That tool mounts Amazon Cloud Drive (acd)... You can mount it as a folder (acdcli mount /path/to/mountpoint) and you can upload files (acdcli upload sourceFolder/* /FolderOnAmazon)...
I figured out a way to use it to play all of my Plex movies on my C@C Host while actually playing them form the Amazon Cloud (or local storage on my C@C host)... It's an interesting setup.
-
@dafyre hey, do you think that that would work on a ReadyNAS NAS appliance?
