VIRTUAL SERVERS / IN DETAIL7 useful answers
What is an OmbraHost Linux VPS?+
The prepared Umbra range contains five KVM Linux VPS configurations with root access, from 1 to 16 vCPU, 2 to 32 GB RAM and 25 to 480 GB NVMe. Each lists eight compatible regions. The image, transfer allowance and snapshot inclusion belong to the exact plan; the local checkout creates no server.
Why choose KVM?+
KVM provides an independent guest kernel and root access. Kernel modules and containers remain subject to the selected image and enabled host capabilities.
Which images can I select?+
The catalogue lists Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky, Fedora and Whonix. Custom ISO requests need eligibility checks; Windows belongs to the RDP catalogue.
How are addresses allocated?+
The prepared specification includes one IPv4 address and IPv6. Additional IPv4 and larger IPv6 allocations require technical approval; they are not selectable live add-ons.
Which snapshots are included?+
Umbra 4 includes a weekly snapshot; Umbra 8 includes daily snapshots. Verify the selected plan rather than assuming every tier includes the same schedule.
Can the server grow?+
The intended upgrade path expands CPU, memory and disk. A restart or migration may be required; changing infrastructure class needs a separate transfer plan.
Can it run containers?+
Docker and Podman use the guest kernel. Nested virtual machines require separately confirmed virtualisation support; running a container does not establish nested KVM availability.
A little more flexibility.
