Although we can see in the Linode backend that the recharge token already supports payment by credit card and PayPal, the new payment method is only supported by the dual-currency credit card, the multi-payment method may be available in the near future. For a long time, lajiang chose and used the Linode VPS server. From the original monthly fee of MB of memory, $20 is required, and now the 2 GB memory solution only needs $10, to a certain extent, the price is reduced.

 

With the introduction of a large number of users and the tossing of various projects after the price reduction, objectively speaking, the current performance is not as good as before, although there are inherent line problems, among the many factors, a large number of users are also one of them. In the past, many projects in our company migrated to other servers due to unsatisfactory stability.

 

However, considering the cost effectiveness and the acceptable stability, the seller's reliability is still relatively high. In addition, users who choose to build websites or other projects are cheaper in terms of configuration. In theory, the cost of 2 GB memory configuration is more than 60 yuan, and such service providers can choose to be satisfied. Because the merchant may consider the stability of the Japanese data center, neither New accounts nor existing accounts of the Japanese data center can be found at present ).

 

1. About Linode purchasing

 

Here, Lao Jiang needs to mention the problem about purchasing Linode accounts. Previously, purchasing has been divided into two types: Directly activating an independent account or activating a subaccount. The difference between the two lies in that the former is independent. When we log in with our username and password, we can see all permissions, including machine activation, payment, and various management, A sub-account requires an independent general account to activate and authorize a sub-account to manage a machine. It cannot be deleted, opened, or paid.

 

Because of the strict management of Linode merchants, each newly opened account can only use a unique payment credit card. That is to say, if you purchase an independent account, you need to prepare a credit card, at present, there is basically no one to purchase an independent account, and credit card resources are limited. After buying this card for you, he will not be able to purchase and consume it (there is a certain risk ). Currently, most subaccounts are authorized for purchase, including the sub-accounts we see in TB.

 

Risk reminder: purchase and authorize sub-accounts, you must find a familiar or reputable merchant, because our finance needs to go through the total account, once the person in the account cannot be found or they do not speak about credit to delete the machine, we will have risks and losses. If your project is important, you can activate an independent account or purchase an independent account, and then recharge your account (the newly registered Linode account will receive a $10 discount code and a Linode account credit card and identity verification ).

 

2. How to migrate Linode VPS to another account

 

In general, migration accounts are rarely used, but Chiang also encountered several netizens migrating to my account. For example, we use a VPS purchased by a netizen and continue using it due to various problems, but we need to switch to another purchaser or to our existing account. We can use the method of migrating machines to other Linode accounts.

 

A-submit an application

 

We need to submit a TICKET to transfer the current VPS account. The format is as follows:

 

The code is as follows: Copy code

I want transfer "current VPS" to "new Linode total account ".

 

B-waiting for answers

 

After submitting the ticket, wait for the answer.

 

 

When we see such a response, we need to open a new ticket with the new Linode account.

 

C-submit a new ticket (use the new account)

 

We use the new account that receives the current VPS to write a TICKET. The format is similar:

 

The code is as follows: Copy code

I accept the vps. Ticket is [Ticket number in the red circle in the figure above].

 

When submitting a ticket, we expressed our willingness to receive the VPS. We need to mention the ticket number given by the customer service of the old account so that they can know which one to transfer. After submitting the ticket, wait a few minutes for the customer service to answer and handle it. We can see the transferred VPS in the new account.

 

Note: The VPS is transferred to the new account, but the user name and password of the original sub-account cannot be seen after login, I need to set an authorization sub-account username and password for the current VPS in the new total account.
