My previous problems with BlueVM


Massive packet loss at BlueVM Los Angeles: http://ift.tt/1op3Yz3


BlueVM shuts down my VPS with dubious cause, doesn't bother to notify me: http://ift.tt/1xUA5I6

I have one little VPS on BlueVM that I use. Unfortunately, it's nothing but problems since I first started using them a few months ago.


I really wanted for BlueVM to work out, but it isn't. At all.


Now the issue is that they keep rebooting the host node, or otherwise rebooting my OpenVZ VPS.


List of reboots. The timestamp here is on boot-up, not when it went down.

In the last three days, they have rebooted this host every day within the same 2-hour window.


Unfortunately, for reasons I'm not sure about, every time they reboot, my node comes up with an empty iptables configruation. I have to log in and manually restore the iptables config, because whatever they are doing is breaking it on restore.


So, I find my host sitting there with no firewall. Awesome.


This is on top of my host being broken and offline for 7-8 hours last Thursday when I couldn't even access the host via the Feathur control panel. It took them 35 hours to finally respond to the ticket I opened. I think it got fixed by accident when they rebooted the host node on Friday morning.
