As of now we don't have a set date. One week roughly but this depends how fast they sell.

Based on location to the UK this sounds about right. We have two offerings one of which is Texas VPS's (smaller ping time) and California (longer ping time) to UK. So this new offering won't be the best option for all interested customers. Let me know if you have any questions.

Okay thanks for clearing that up.
Our existing (reseller) host is located in a similar area, and to be honest the site loading is so slooowwwww that it is like wading through treacle
I've had much better ping times from your other Datacentre (128ms), and i'm in no immediate rush, so i'll hang fire for your next TX monthly promotion.

Hey,
I can still offer you a deal on a Texas VPS. Only big difference is the bandwidth isn't doubled compared to CA VPS's. Email or PM me for a deal on a Texas VPS.

My traceroute showed it went through Verio to San Jose, California, is this true? Just completely curious on what city these are hosted in now. Is this new hardware you've recently sent to the datacenter there? If we're a current customer, is there any option of migration? What port speed are customers on?
As a side note, I get 40ms to the Texas DC and 58ms to California, so the only difference for me really is geographical distance it seems, however my downloads only reach around 850Kb/s to california locations (not just your server) compared to 1.1Mb/s to Texas.

Caleb,
The two bandwidth options in California are Cogent and Verio so you are correct. We have decided to offer VPS's on the West Coast so this will be a new offering at KnownHost . We will continue to add servers regularly at Colo4dallas (Texas) as we do now. A migration can be done but the better way to look at it is sign up for a CA VPS, migrate data, assign new IP's, etc then cancel the Tx VPS. So the VPS would need to be setup at the new DC first.
The big difference is the double bandwidth at the same cost. Currently this is for the life of the subscription.

I recently purchased a VPS from KnownHost and so far it's been great. Their texas network has been fast and reliable. I'm gonna upgrade soon...

So if you have users from around the world (especially Europe and Austrailia) it seems that the California offer makes it a long delay? How long? A sec or two or less?

I wish this offer can last longer, because my current VPS from JaguarPC will be due Nov 3rd. I hope I can start a new VPS around then.
but KH's VPS is only semi-managed, I am wondering what technical support do you provide. Do you install Imagemagic for clients?

gamemaster,
It will depend on your location but we have provided a test IP and file for eveyone to use. We also offer VPS's in Texas so you are given the option between two locations.
Here are a couple links as well to public traceroute services:
- From AU:
http://www.telstra.net/cgi-bin/trace?205.209.146.2
- From UK:
http://ab.newnet.co.uk/cgi-bin/traceroute?205.209.146.2
I hope this helps.

ivytony,
We do not have a current time frame for this offer yet. It will most likely run for another week or two.
You can read about semi-managed on our website here: http://www.knownhost.com/faq.html#q13. We do install third party scripts for all customers as long as you can provide us with installation instructions.
Hope this helps!

D'Godown,
We do not sell interworx but we have customers using this so you can install it in the VPS if you like.
Regarding SLM memory Management we do not currently use this. In the future we may. Any further questions let us know.

If I order DirectAdmin in the package, what version DirectAdmin will be provided? Admin/Reseller/User? May I have an test IP for the Texas and California IDC respectively? I would like to traceroute and see which is better for my side. Thanks in advance

CoolRock, they have test IP addresses and files to download to test network speed on their "Our Networks" page: http://knownhost.com/company/network.html
Texas: 65.99.213.7
Ca: 205.209.146.2
I can't attest to the version of DirectAdmin, but I would assume it's the latest version. Since this is a VPS, you would have full access to update/upgrade if need be. I use WHM/cPanel so I don't know how DirectAdmin works, but in the root WHM I just selected the update option to automatically update me to the latest version of both WHM and cPanel.

Wow, those are some high response times - even on your local LAN (80-100ms internally?)
Well, they both come out about the same don't they? I've heard people say that CA seems faster for people in Europe and according to the traceroute it seems to hit California first no matter which one you're going to... You may want to try several ping tests throughout the day to see if the response times get any better or fluctuate widely.
Since right now KnownHost is offering double bandwidth for their CA servers so that might be a better choice for you since otherwise they are about the same.
