  1. A firewall system should be developed for virtual servers or virtual server groups. We have to block and allow certain ip and ports.

  2. There is an untapped market for bare metal server management. We have been looking for a while for something that can PXE boot and install an OS (windows or linux) and dedicate the entire bare metal server to the client. The best part is if you can integrate with solusIO so clients can buy bare metal or VPS and manage in one panel.

    With any client that outgrows VPS they sometimes need bare metal. Being able to upgrade & migrate a clients VPS to a bare metal server with a few clicks would be a huge hit.

    Thanks,
    Oplink.net

  3. It would be better to displays the Memory usage without cache usage in Manage Node page or it would be cool to have additional bar for cache usage.

  4. Cloud init is the standard when it comes to provisioning servers. Not only in large clouds such as AWS, others use it too in one way or another. It would be good if SolusVM would follow this standard.

  6. By enabling PCI passthrough will allow us to use a physical PCI device (graphics card, network card) inside a VM.

    This is highly required for VPS servers with Graphic Cards, which is not possible with SolusVM at this time and it has been present with competitors for quite some time.

  7. It would be amazing if we could easily and automatically (without using that config hack) limit IOPS and disk speeds assigned to the VM. Currently, anyone can just use all available node speeds without limitations.

  9. Hi,

    This thread serves as a proposal for an anti-abuse system daemon, that could automate the monitoring of the VM's and avoid abusing in terms of IO, CPU and Network, the latest the less critical.
    Some sort of Nodewatch, directly integrated and the nodes, that can handle the suspensions and all that. It's something that should have already been done in my honest opinion.

    Requirements for it:

    • Give cgroups some use!;
    • Ability to throttle CPU, IO / Network;
    • Define thresholds for suspensions;
    • Hook for billing panel integrations.

  10. We would like to be able to give customers their own virtual network. Instead of adding them onto a global internal network we prefer to have something like Open vSwitch or similar. This allows for overlapping internal address scopes for example. It would improve the security of internal systems, e.g. a database server.

  13. When you migrate an OpenVZ Container, there needs to be a simple checkbox for "Live" migration, which would add the --live function to vzmigrate. I never use the built-in migration because it doesn't have this feature and there's no reason not to do a live migration in most cases. This takes the VM down only a minute or two vs hours.

  15. Hello,

    In RFC2182 recommendation is to use at least 3 nameservers.

    https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2182#page-7

    In solusvm ip block admin we can only set two so it should have the ability to use at least three or more.

    Thank you

  17. Add support to let the Resellers create VM's from WHMCS using the WHMCS module.

    It would be good if the Resellers could manage the VM creation using the WHMCS billing module.

  20. It would be better if SolusVM 2 allows to create a new VM from the VM Snapshot, so that the client could have a cloned VM easily.
