Thanks guys, you think they would be able to do a setup today?
I have heard a number of people suggest yellowfiber.

I am currently already with Webair, PacificRack, etc just looking for an additional server.

Thanks, I have been very happy with your service overall, I just might have to do that. Could you get me setup at a different location than my current server is at?

[TidalWave]

Not at the current time unfortunately. New service locations are in the works for the close future, however.

Thanks for the heads up. I prefer to spread my stuff all over so that is why I am looking for a new server at another host/location.

That is a bummer, I had hit you up a number of times before deciding on someone else. I went with AmeriNOC but might still get one with you. If not, I will need another one in a month or two.

Well, for some hosts the infrastructure is MUCH more complicated then just an OS install.
We have a very advanced back end with Public AND Private Networks for EACH server, as well as 2 VLAN's per machine, and a whole slew of records and associations to be made for bandwidth monitoring, remote power control, and all our automated features. So it does take someone highly experienced in our system to do a manual install of a new machine and integrate it into our system. While it won't take 2-3 days, it is still a copious amount of work for 1 person to do with the routing (VLANs, IP assignments) on both customer access switches as well as the distribution switches, racking (rails, etc), ensuring neat cable runs (single or double power/ double or triple network cables), OS Install, OS Updates, internal record keeping and port/resource usages, and more.

Soon we will have all this automated on the customer level, where customers will be able to perform their own OS Reloads, with automated DNS records (forward and reverse), Automated RWhois and a ton more! It will be a crazy automated and self-sufficient service experience where someone who is proficient with sysadmin will never need to contact us for anything other than some critical hardware failure. Any other type of outage or issue will be completely able to be self-resolved -- or they can choose to be Fully Managed and we will do all that for them, but for those that like admin'ing their own machines, its a very awesome platform we are developing!

There's a lot that goes into one of our server installs and I'm sure a lot of other hosts that have more than just a basic server setup of power and internet.

Sounds good, expect me to get a second server as soon as you have another location available. For the time being, would it be possible to set me up on another set of Class C's apart from those that my current server with you is using? As mentioned I will be in need of more servers soon.

I assumed most have have automation already done with scripts. However my post was not pointed directly at you it was to other host that can't or wont do installs on weekends or take 2-3 days to turn around a server.

Hey man, ya I apologize for that. Last time we talked was weeks ago and was not expecting anything from you. If you need another server just let me know. I'll hook you up.

Peace
