As of right now, logging in every 60 days, is sufficient to keep everything active.
However, despite that, it seems like we still have too many idle containers.
In about a week, a different policy is gonna be in affect
Which also is gonna require at least 1GB of traffic (inbound + outbound) per month, per container.
For testing reasons, the limit is set as low as possible.
If only one of the requirements in meet, the container will not be extended.
Please access the instance to check. Since it's a LXC container, it should be easy to access through the node. And yes, feel free to look around the /root/script/ folder.

Melbourne will be offline for about 5 minutes tomorrow, I have to resize the disk, we got more storage.
After this, we can fit a bunch more containers on this Node.

Also, a new Maintenance info.
On 16 May 2025 at 09:00 AM (Bucharest time), we will be performing CPU and node upgrades at our Oradea location. This maintenance will be carried out in two phases.
For us interesting would be Phase 2.
Phase 2: Customers on Xeon Scalable Gen 1 nodes will receive both security patches and a CPU upgrade. This process also requires a reboot, and the estimated downtime is ~60 minutes per node.
@somik said: @Neoon Terminated one of the LXC containers, but it is still showing up in my account, even though it clearly got deleted from the node....
Yes but there was an error, hence your entry wasn't deleted automatically.
If so, new deployments would run into errors.
Chile is going to be offline for about 14 hours on the 19th of July.
Starting from 08:00 AM GMT -4
While this may be disruptive in the short term, it will bring long-term benefits including improved latency and reachability within the Latin American region. Additionally, it will allow us to offer new networking features such as downstream BGP sessions to clients.

After the Maintenance I checked a few things, I noticed that Console / Shell was partially broken on some nodes.
I pinned the issue down, however still working on a fix, no ETA currently, probably, some breaking change to hypervisor, despite its LTS.

As precaution, I also disabled Console / Shell for LXD nodes, probably it also affects LXD which hasn't been patched yet.
I have theoretically a fix, to make it work again, gimme some time to implement it though.
I just learned a few hours ago, what the actually cause is.

Islamabad has gotten a new subnet, the old subnet will stop functioning on 18 December 2025.
The new IP has been already added in the Panel, I will reconfigure the network on the weekend to run dual stack if possible, so you have time until the 18th to switch.
Regarding NZ, currently we got a software bug, that brings the primary interface down, at random times.
I still have no idea whats causing it, I duct taped it right now with a cronjob, to prevent bigger downtimes.
@Neoon there is a port forwarding problem for new containers on the Islamabad/PK server, I can't connect at all. Using the console to self-loop to the SSH forwarded port does not work either.
