0 bear Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Definitely. Installed on one, or simply interacting to set up accounts, as long as you have reseller or better access. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itsmesee Posted November 25, 2007 Author Share Posted November 25, 2007 Great, So lets say Im the server admin and i setup VPS servers for my resellers to use. They could then use their own licensed WHMCS for their resellers and end users. But my next question is, they would have to login to my WHMCS license for support through me and then into their own to support their customers. Is this the best way to work this out? Or can they login once to receive support from me and to support their resellers/end users? Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bear Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Each install would be separate. Your resellers would log into yours (since they pay you) to get support and products from you. They sell to others, who would log into the WHMCS install they bought from to get support and buy additional products. If you were to support the customers of your resellers, they would know you were the supplier. That might upset most end users, as well as the resellers themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itsmesee Posted November 26, 2007 Author Share Posted November 26, 2007 One last thought on this... Any idea on how to automate the order process of a vps server with whmcs and whm/cpanel so that on the whmcs integrated order page the customer could order the vps and the vps would be created? This sounds like it would be complicated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bear Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Just like dedicated server sales, I think this is beyond most client manager's ability to auto provision. This is likely a manual process, but I don't sell VPS', so I can't say for certain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itsmesee Posted November 27, 2007 Author Share Posted November 27, 2007 How do you handle billing for vps in whmcs?, woulld you set it up as a server plan? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 othellotech Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 How do you handle billing for vps in whmcs?, woulld you set it up as a server plan? Yes, you set it up as a VPS/Server plan. And if you get the de-kit an your VPS technoly supportsit, you could write a provisioning module. I've looked at doing it, but there are so many things with the VPS deployment under both Xen4-Enterprise and Virtuozzo that you still have to handle manaully or by reference to internal documentation or that (IMHO) are a PITA to automate - ta right now manual VPS creation / upgrades / migrates is less problemaic and troublefee Having WHMCS do the invoicing though is great 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itsmesee Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 Sounds good , we are going to use virtuozzo with this as well.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bluque Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 If you use OpenVZ or Xen then you could always have a go with HyperVM which is a management panel for VPS on these 2 platforms. WHMCS has an intergration module for HyperVM so if you use it with WHMCS you could automate VPS setup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itsmesee Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 Nice, are you sure about this.. i didnt see this feature mentioned anywhere, but i may have over looked it. Anyone currently doing this and have any feedback on it and well it integrates with hypervm? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bluque Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 The HyperVM module is a fairly new one and was introduced in the last release of WHMCS. I have seen HyperVM being used by many large VPS companies as it can take alot of pressure off them and it allows customers to carry out basic day to day VPS tasks. HyperVM licensing is currently 50 cents (US) per a VPS, which is very cheap IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itsmesee Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 I dont see any information on the hypervm module and what it does on the whmcs website, am i overlooking this? If it can auto create vps's fairly easy with hypervm i may switch to hypervm, even though i hate the look of it. Does whmcs offer any load balancing features yet for something like this? ex. create the new vps on the server with the most free resources, etc.? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bluque Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I've taken a screenshot of the screen with which you setup HyperVM packages with on the WHMCS CP, please take a look at it here: http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/2994/whmcshypervmnd5.jpg 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
