It’s good to know that your Bare Metal is being deployed instantly after you requested it, but it’s much better when you know what’s happening during that process. Starting today, you can!

Automatic provisioning stages

There are a few different stages we’ll show you during the deployment process.

Awaiting will tell you which servers have open invoices that need to be paid before being provisioned. For users in the hourly billing beta, we skip this stage as payment is due only at the end of the billing cycle.

Deploying means our systems are hard at work running additional hardware tests, installing the Operating System you selected and making sure everything is good to go.

When the device is ready to be used, we’ll show you a New stage. That’ll persist for 72 hours to make it easier for you and your team to know which servers have been deployed recently.

Give it a try

We hope this update makes it easier to keep track of your deployments. Let us know what you think!

Thanks again for being a Maxihost customer.
