bluevm It’s BlueVM’s birthday, and Justin is having celebrating with an exclusive party promotion. Happy Birthday guys from all of us at LowEndBox!

KVM2 – Birthday Special

OpenVZ3 – Birthday Special

BlueVM were founded in May 2011 and have been featured a handful of times. They recently came ninth in our 2013 Q1 top providers poll. KVM orders in Los Angeles are not automatically setup and may take up to 48 hours to process. KVM servers in Buffalo, NY and OpenVZ servers in Los Angeles are however instantly setup. Justin informs us that their special offers on OpenVZ can be transferred to any location. Los Angeles is just the most undersold location at present.

BlueVM accept payments via PayPal, Google Checkout and Bitcoin. According to their website, their servers primarily consist of the Intel E3-1240 with 32 GB of RAM and 4 x 1TB or 2TB drives in RAID10. More information is available on their FAQ page. IRC, VPN/Proxies and Adult content is allowed as well as Tor Middle Nodes. As usual, take a look at their Terms of Service before signing up.

    Any chance of upgrading the BlueVM KVM in LA to 1Gbps? How much, if so?

    May 7, 2013 @ 10:59 pm | Reply
    • It is 1 Gbps, unfortunately it looks like Liam posted 100 Mbps instead. We’ll see if he can correct this above.

      • Peter:

        Is just the KVM 1Gbps or is the OpenVZ 1Gbps as well?

        May 8, 2013 @ 2:44 am | Reply
    • It is 1Gbps :)

      We have PM’d Liam for correction.

  5. Would you be interested in having your KVM VPS listed on Geekahost?

      • Sorry, perhaps I should have clarified :)
        I am already paying for your OpenVZ VPS, but if you want me to add a KVM VPS then please have a look here: http://geekahost.com/how-do-i-submit-our-vps-to-geekahost/

        • I thought you weren’t accepting VPS because it would be unbiased or something?

          But I’m sure we can.

          May 8, 2013 @ 11:27 am | Reply
        • It very quickly got to the point where not only this became very expensive, but also I need to log in to provider’s site and pay for another VPS literally every day, which after a while results in me spending much more time submitting payments than doing actual reviews :)

  9. Can’t resist. Have to let my money go.
    Anyway, @Ishaq, why you need up to 48hrs to provision the LA node?

    May 8, 2013 @ 1:58 am | Reply
    • We’re waiting on Quadranet to install an SSD for disk cacheing and frankly I don’t want to tell people “listen I know you just bought your VPS, but its going down for an hour.” I’d rather just setup the VPS once they’re done. I’m told they’ll be doing the SSD install in about 1 – 2 hours.

        How about KVM in buffalo, same 1Gbps port and SSD Cached?

  10. Hope that this time you install some kind of DDOS protection. I would like to order one but the memory of last time haunts me.

    May 8, 2013 @ 3:57 am | Reply
    • Our KVM nodes average over 100 days of uptime (yes that includes network uptime).

      Our only “problem children” are our S1 nodes for openvz, which are for lower end clients. The smaller VPS tend to have far more problems in regards to DDOS, abuse, etc… thus our Blue3’s seen above would have 80+ days of uptime like the rest of our S3 servers.

      Either way uptime is important to us and we are doing our best to improve our services.

    any reason why the LA speedtest file is pulling quite slow? I get around 100-240Kb/sec only

    • The speedtest is on a busy node with our low end clients, once the KVM LA is up, please PM me on LET for the test IP :)

    • Those tests except the last two, are done on your official test files. The last two are test files of another host. The tests were done on another VPS (Will), and cross checked with yet another one (UGVPS). The test results are similiar. It doesnt look like a 1Gbps connection.

        Suspended, shutdown or terminated for me it’s the same, because it means having a website/service not available.

    Couldn’t resist one of each. The Buffalo KVM comes with every conceivable ISO to install from so for now I went for Windows Server 2008 (activated using my own genuine key, no keys provided obviously). Instantly provisioned and runs pretty quickly, good transfer speeds.

    The LA OpenVZ was also instantly provisioned but has no IP address! I can access it via the Java console but it has no network access.

    Ticket opened 2 hours ago (ticket #441688) but no response as yet. A little frustrating.

    Everybody don’t be so impatient, normally when a promotion comes out everybody hits the nodes with testing.

    Wait 1 or 2 days, and the activity in the node will normalize. If everybody hammers the I/O test at the same time, we always end up with crappy results.

    I’m no employee from BlueVM just another customer.

      BlueVM is not responsible for copy-right infringements caused by what the Customer hosted on BlueVM’s servers.

      BlueVM may at it’s discretion view client files in an attempt to determine the legality of the client’s usage if the client’s usage appears suspicious or abusive in nature. If the client’s files are determined to be of an illegal nature or the client’s VPS accounts are found to be abusing the VPS node’s resources BlueVM may suspend, terminate or delete the client’s VPS. These actions include, but are not limited to:

      IO Abuse
      Network abuse
      CPU abuse
      Memory abuse

        The windows image file can chose on control plan

        Submit Ticket they response
        Installing Windows on a KVM with 512MB RAM causes Windows to abuse the disk, we no longer allow Windows on 512MB RAM, so you have 2 options. 1. Upgrade RAM to 1GB+, or re-install with Linux distro.

        THIS IS NOT Birthday Promotion IT Birthday Fraud

        May 11, 2013 @ 4:13 pm | Reply
        • @nbi – We had a bunch of users signup, install windows on 512 MB of RAM and their services proceeded to begin swapping with the disk anywhere from 100 – 200 times per minute. You can’t fault us for trying to protect other users by preventing windows from bashing the disks in because you didn’t setup your services with enough RAM.

          As per microsoft’s website:
          Windows 7: 1 gigabyte (GB) RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
          Windows 2003 Server: 512 MB (bare minimum) or 1 GB recommended
          Windows 2008 Server: 512 MB (bare minimum) or 2 GB recommended

          If you want we can unsuspend your VPS and you can remove your page file and that should solve the problem.

        2. is running DD test “abuse” ?
        3. So can’t run test, can’t transfer any files, what’d you suggest to do with your vps?

    • @zerofj – Its probably a matter of how much your VPS was swapping. You’re welcome to try again, but a lot of the windows that were setup with this sale hit the disks 100+ times per second swapping.

        Windows on 512 should work, but so tight, it will pull somebody else’s resources.
        but, file transfer should be o.k though, because in order to run stuff, for example, you need stuff.

    You did not to suspend running windows vps, why suspended me? I am no high io, no high Mbps. My website less 100ip/per day.
