@deanhills I would like to report a discovery that I made recently, on VPS Plans and VPS Compare VPS 9 are listed as IPv6 capable but actually I can't see them. Running the following command I can see only one interface with IPv4.

Code: (Select All)

ip addr show

I am missing IPs or the info about VPSes ) need to be updated?
IPv6 are not critical and are not well supported worldwide on the ISP, so they are not a must-have nowadays.

Thanks for pointing this out @LightDestory. Are you suggesting we remove the reference to IPv6 in the VPS 9 Plan?

Well, I am currently a bit tempted to switch over VPS 9 - Seattle due to curiosity of the new KVM.

To be clear VPS 9 is really nice and powerfull but right now I am experimenting the OpenVZ limitations such as old kernel. Some developing software that I use are not well supported I have to use workaround for them.

But I am a bit insecure, I adapted myself to work with my VPS 9 OpenVZ, I don't know what will change after the upgrate to "KVM Lite" so I could need a testing period, less than 24h, to see if the switch is bearable.

@deanhills regarding the IPv6, with my VPS I am unable to see any IPv6. If some other VPS 9 holder confirms this "issue", then we can correct the specs on VPS Plan.

2x high end VPS and from last announcement it will be converted to KVM lite . probably just KVM with less feature but newer kernel . that is what is important . now you can run software that originally doesnt work with kernel 2.6 like docker for example . and it still have the 8GB of ram and fast ssd of VPS 9
