Limitations

Limitations depend on a particular server model and its location. The below list general limitations for the Enterprise Bare Metal service.

Provisioning ETA is from 15 minutes when the ordered configuration is available in the rack, and 24 hours or more otherwise. If server hardware needs to be ordered or transported, provisioning time is determined by delivery deadlines.
UEFI boot mode is supported only on Dell 12th generation and newer servers. Dell 11G, Supermicro, and Fujitsu servers support BIOS only.
The following operating systems cannot be installed automatically via BIOS and require a UEFI-capable server:
- VMware ESXi 8.0 x86_64
- VMware ESXi 7.0 x86_64
- FreeBSD 13 x86_64

No more than 2 public networks per server: one main public network and one additional network.
No more than 2 private networks per server: one main private network and one additional network.
No more than 72 public IP addresses per server.
No more than 72 private IP addresses in networks per server.
No more than 64 additional /32 IP addresses per server.
Only one /64 IPv6 network can be assigned per server. IPv6 is not available in locations with reduced redundancy.
Uplinks can only be changed once per day via the Customer Portal.
Only one public uplink port and one private uplink port per server.
Disaggregating an uplink port disables redundancy for that port.

RAID configuration is only available when the server chassis and selected operating system support RAID, and when more than one disk of the same size is selected.

User data scripts cannot be modified after automatic OS installation is complete.
The maximum user data script size without Base64 encoding is 16 KB.
