  2. Currently, API is implemented for Administrator and a client (per VPS) only. Please consider the implementation of API for a reseller user.

  3. We have a very large number of VPS to migrate from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7 based servers before end-of-life and need more efficiency in the migration process for a large number of migrations. Doing them one by one is not efficient. We need to be able to easily migrate an entire server to another server. Having the feature to migrate one server all VPS to multiple destination servers or one server all VPS to one destination server would be helpful.

  4. Currently, only the primary filesystem is backed up during the auto FTP backup process. All filesystems added to a Virtual Machine should be included in the backup, or an option should be added to include the secondary file systems.

  5. The function has already been implemented and works great however for many of us with multiple PoP's the option to set this on/off on a per node basis would be a significant improvement, in Europe and the USA Bandwidth use is rarely a concern however in Asia Pacific regions this could get incredibly costly.

    Currently it is global for all slaves/nodes regardless of location and it would allow us to give a much better and fitting service to customers if we could chose which nodes this applies too.

  6. Migrated VPS instances may not always have a password stored in the database. Consequently, even if the current root password is known, connecting via SSH through the rescue environment is not feasible. The rescue image includes Guest Tools, which allows you to obtain a new root password by booting into the rescue mode, similar to the process in SolusVM1.

  7. It would be better if we disable the network of the VM from the SolusVM 2 panel. So an abusive VM network can be disabled and let the customers resolve their situation through VNC.

  14. I feel like the CPU topology setting should be on the plan pages not in the template page. As plans dictate the amount of vCPUs on a VPS, not the template and so that makes no sense. The rest such as passthrough, make sense as these can matter per operating system such as Windows. This way everyone can properly set CPU topology globally and correctly for each plan.

    Without CPU topology, operating systems don't recognize the structure as it is. They detect the allocated vCPUs as sockets, so giving a VPS 2 vCPUs means the operating system detects it as…

  16. Add option to assign bulk IPv4 addresses to a VM (OVZ or KVM) instead of having to manually add one at a time which is time consuming and antiquated method.

  17. Currently the only way to enable quick backup for containers is to run the script in the solusvm DOCS occasionally however this really should be enabled at the point of container creation.

    Please consider updating SolusVM to incorporate that.

  18. Adding the "firmware option" to the individual image operating system settings -
    Always spin up the new VPS'es with UEFI when using a specific image.
    Example: adding a Windows 2024 image or newer should always use UEFI when used for VPS creation instead of manually performing this.

  19. It would be advantageous to provide an option for assigning an IP address to the virtual machine without relying on the Guest Tools. Alternatively, enhancing the capability to assign the VM's IP address from the computer resource level would allow users to configure a static IP address within the VM independently of the Guest Tools.

    • Stop deletion, set purge.

    • VM deletion also deletes backups. This should purge after XX days not immediately as their could be a mistake. We should be able to set purge days per backup node.

    • Backup Recovery

    Recovering a full backup to a new CR.
    - Select the backup from a list of Backups (even deleted VMs) pending purge
    - Select the NEW CR
    - Select the NEW hostname

    The backup server will send full backup to newly created VM on selected CR.

    • I'm sure there is underlying issues here but this would be amazing *
