        <description><![CDATA[<blockquote><div>
  <p>This post is originally published on yoursunny.com blog <a href="https://yoursunny.com/t/2021/Virtualizor-VNC-netplan/" rel="nofollow">https://yoursunny.com/t/2021/Virtualizor-VNC-netplan/</a></p>
</div></blockquote>

<p>The KVM server hosting my website went offline last month.<br />
Thinking the server might have crashed, I went to Virtualizor, the VPS control panel, to reboot the VPS.<br />
It did not solve the problem, so I proceeded with my <a rel="nofollow" href="https://yoursunny.com/t/2021/disaster-recovery-no-tears/">disaster recovery plan</a>.</p>

<p>The hosting provider, <a rel="nofollow" href="https://spartanhost.org/">Spartan Host</a>, explained that it was a router bug.<br />
They <a rel="nofollow" href="https://status.spartanhost.net/incident/234">fixed the router</a> after 4 hours, but my server did not come online.</p>

<h2>Symptom</h2>

<p>To investigate what went wrong with my VPS, I came back to Virtualizor to enable VNC access.<br />
Having VNC access is like attaching a monitor and a keyboard to the server.<br />
It would allow me to see any error messages printed on the screen and login to check whether there are configuration errors.</p>

<p>I didn't see any error through VNC connection.<br />
Thinking it might be a routing problem, I logged in with username and password, and ran a <code>traceroute</code>.<br />
To my surprise, the <code>traceroute</code> was able to reach Internet destination.<br />
Moreover, I can SSH into this server again.</p>

<p>Seeing the problem went away, I disabled VNC access in Virtualizor.<br />
Then, I pressed the reboot button in Virtualizor, so that the hypervisor would apply the VNC settings; rebooting via SSH would not be effective.</p>

<p>Then, I started a <code>ping</code> to the server from my desktop, and eagerly waited.<br />
One minute, two minutes, &hellip;, the server did not come online.<br />
What went wrong again?</p>

<p>I repeated the process, re-enabled VNC access, and saw nothing wrong.<br />
I disabled VNC again, and the VPS lost connectivity again.<br />
Clearly, there's a correlation between the VNC toggle and network connectivity.</p>

<h2>Diagnostics Ⅰ</h2>

<p>Virtualizor is known to <a rel="nofollow" href="https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/2439/virtualizor-updates-gives-vps-providers-grey-hair-and-sleep-deprevation/p1">push feature updates in patch releases</a> that sometimes breaks things, so I asked whether there was a Virtualizor update recently, but <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/3217921/#Comment_3217921">the answer was no</a>.<br />
I couldn't figure out the problem, so I opened a support ticket with Spartan Host, and sent over the Netplan configuration file in this Ubuntu 20.04 server.</p>

<pre><code>network:
  version: 2
  ethernets:
    ens3:
      dhcp4: true
      addresses:
        - 2001:db8:2604:9cc0::1/64
        - 2001:db8:2604:9cc0::80/64:
            lifetime: 0
      routes:
        - to: ::/0
          via: 2001:db8:2604::1
          on-link: true
</code></pre>

<p>In this configuration:</p>

<ul>
<li>IPv4 address is acquired from DHCP, which is provided by the hypervisor.</li>
<li>IPv6 is statically configured.</li>
<li>NIC name <code>ens3</code> is hard-coded, because it never changes.</li>
</ul>

<p>I've been using similar Netplan configuration files in several other KVM servers, and never had a problem.</p>

<p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-mccully-195b71101/">Ryan McCully</a>, the managing director at Spartan Host, performed some tests on my KVM.<br />
He found that, if VNC is disabled, the network interface on the VPS seems to be "completely dead", as there's no ARP or any other traffic seen at the hypervisor side.<br />
He was also puzzled why VNC would affect network interface, but offered an explanation of why my VPS was working in the past few months:</p>

<ul>
<li>As mentioned above, setting changes in Virtualizor are applied to the hypervisor only after the reboot button in Virtualizor is pressed.</li>
<li>Most likely, when I finished the initial setup, I disabled VNC but didn't reboot in Virtualizor.</li>
<li>In this case, VNC tabs are hidden in Virtualizor, but VNC is still enabled on the hypervisor.</li>
</ul>

<h2>Diagnostics Ⅱ</h2>

<p>Ryan spent a few more hours of extensive testing, and was able to reproduce this issue.<br />
It turned out that <strong>disabling VNC in Virtualizor changes the network interface name</strong>.</p>

<p>The KVM hypervisor realizes VNC through an emulated VGA monitor.<br />
Enabling VNC attaches a VGA controller to the virtual server, while disabling VNC detaches it.<br />
To see this effect, we can schedule to run <code>lspci</code> command <a rel="nofollow" href="https://phoenixnap.com/kb/crontab-reboot">upon reboot in crontab</a>, and look at the output file when we regain access.</p>

<pre><code>$ : VNC enabled
$ lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440FX - 82441FX PMC [Natoma] (rev 02)
00:01.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 ISA [Natoma/Triton II]
00:01.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 IDE [Natoma/Triton II]
00:01.2 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 USB [Natoma/Triton II] (rev 01)
00:01.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 03)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Cirrus Logic GD 5446

$ lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440FX - 82441FX PMC [Natoma] (rev 02)
00:01.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 ISA [Natoma/Triton II]
00:01.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 IDE [Natoma/Triton II]
00:01.2 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 USB [Natoma/Triton II] (rev 01)
00:01.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 03)

00:03.0 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801AA AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)
00:04.0 SCSI storage controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio block device
00:05.0 Unclassified device [00ff]: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio memory balloon
</code></pre>

<p>More importantly, addition or removal of the VGA controller changes the PCI address of the Ethernet controller.<br />
This, in turn, changes the network interface name, because Ubuntu adopts <a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistent_Network_Device_Naming">Consistent Network Device Naming</a>, in which the name of a network interface is derived from its PCI address.</p>

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
  <th>VNC</th>
  <th>PCI address</th>
  <th>interface name</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
  <td>enabled</td>
  <td>03:00.0</td>
  <td>ens3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td>disabled</td>
  <td>02:00.0</td>
  <td>ens2</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

<p>Therefore, "consistent" network device naming scheme is consistent only if the PCI address doesn't change.<br />
However, PCI addresses aren't always stable.<br />
I've seen PCI address changing on a dedicated server when I configure PCI bifurcation in BIOS settings.<br />
Now I've seen PCI address changing on a KVM virtual server.</p>

<h2>Treatment</h2>

<p>My Netplan configuration assumes the Ethernet adapter on the KVM server is always "ens3".<br />
Disabling VNC changes the network interface name to "ens2", and Netplan would not bring up an interface that it doesn't know about.<br />
This caused the VPS to lose connectivity.</p>

<p>To solve this problem, the Netplan configuration should identify the network interface by its MAC address.<br />
MAC address can be considered a stable identifier of the network interface, because it's one of the outputs from <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.virtualizor.com/docs/admin-api/create-vps/">Virtualizor's Create VPS API</a>.</p>

<p>Therefore, I changed Netplan configuration to this:</p>

<pre><code>network:
  version: 2
  ethernets:
    uplink:
      match:
        macaddress: 6a:ed:d6:3b:49:f4
      set-name: uplink
      dhcp4: true
      addresses:
        - 2001:db8:2604:9cc0::1/64
        - 2001:db8:2604:9cc0::80/64:
            lifetime: 0
      routes:
        - to: ::/0
          via: 2001:db8:2604::1
          on-link: true
</code></pre>

<p>Unless the VPS is deleted and re-created with a different MAC address, this should continue to work.<br />
I also <a rel="nofollow" href="https://yoursunny.com/t/2021/WiFi-rename/">renamed the network interface</a> to "uplink", so that I don't need to check whether it's "ens3" or "ens2" when I type commands.</p>

<h2>Elsewhere</h2>

<p>I checked the VNC situation on several other KVM servers that I have.</p>

<p>WebHorizon and Evolution Host both modified Virtualizor such that there isn't an option to disable VNC.<br />
This prevents the issue, but increases the risk of my VPS being compromised via VNC.</p>

<p>WebHosting24 kept the VNC option intact in Virtualizor.<br />
Disabling VNC would lead to changed network interface names, but my new Netplan configuration works.</p>

<p>SolusVM, the VPS control panel used at VirMach and Nexril, keeps the VGA controller attached at all times.<br />
Disabling VNC blocks the VNC port so that nobody can connect to it, but does not affect the KVM server itself.<br />
I think this is a better approach.</p>

<h2>Acknowledgement</h2>

<p>Kudos to Ryan McCully at <a rel="nofollow" href="https://spartanhost.org/">Spartan Host</a> for helping me hunt down this issue.<br />
I wouldn't have anticipated the root cause without his help.</p>

        <title>The Hosting Industry Speculation Thread</title>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>Thought I would start a thread where hosting companies &amp; users can speculate based on their knowledge of the market &amp; intuition</p>

<p>What I can see is that in near future things are going to be very difficult particularly for those hosting companies who cater to budget market</p>

<ol>
<li><p>AMD to get more share of the server market as Intel has really f****d itself really badly with all those vulnerabilities</p></li>
<li><p>If you are just starting out as a hosting provider then stay far away from WHMCS unless you manage to bag an owned license as a price increase is expected within next 6 to 18 months which could make it more difficult for you to sustain in this highly competitive market. Good alternatives are HostBill if you got enough cash at hand other otherwise starting out with Blesta right now would be a good choice for which you can get an owned license for cheap or can even get it for free as internal license with many hosting companies</p></li>
<li><p>If you are a vps provider then after the release of Solus.io aka SolusVM v2 you are either going to have to increase pricing or you'll have to switch to alternatives like Proxmox, Virtualizor or VMmanager</p></li>
<li><p>In the next few years we are also going to see more &amp; more people switching to DirectAdmin or InterWorx from cPanel</p></li>
