Yes, it is possible to convert your test server into a regular KVM Root Server and continue using it. Here’s how it works.
Step-by-step guide:
- Remove cancellation:
All test servers are automatically marked for cancellation. In order to convert the test server into a regular server, you must first remove this cancellation within the testing phase. You can do this through your customer account in the “Conditions & Configuration” section. - Invoice generation:
After the cancellation has been removed, an invoice for the server will be generated within 24 hours. You will be notified by email about the invoice generation. - Pay the invoice:
Pay the generated invoice to complete the conversion process. Once the payment is received, your test server will be converted into a fully functional KVM Root Server.
Benefits after the conversion:
- Upgrades/Downgrades:
After converting your test server into a regular server, upgrades and downgrades are possible. This was not possible during the testing phase. Now you can flexibly adjust CPU cores, RAM, and disk space according to your needs. - The server belongs to you:
Congratulations! You have acquired your own server. We greatly appreciate your trust! - No commitment:
You only use the server for as long as you need it. Don’t need your server anymore? No problem! Simply let it expire. No questions asked!
