After paying for the service, you will receive a letter with instructions on how to prepare and place the equipment in the data center. If you have special requirements for placement or want to order equipment delivery by cab, create a ticket.
The term of service provision is calculated from the moment the equipment is installed in the rack and connected to the network. After connection, the traffic accounting scheme is set by speed (100 Mbps channel and unlimited traffic). Further it is possible to change the scheme of accounting, more details in the article Traffic Consumption Model.
The server is managed remotely:
- temporary IP-KVM connection is available on request via the ticket system. The monthly fee includes 10 hours of IP-KVM usage, further the service is provided for a fee. To learn how to connect IP-KVM, see the article Connecting an external KVM;
- If the server supports IPMI, iLO or their counterparts from other vendors, you can lease an additional dedicated port on the network equipment to access your server from the outside.
