6. Create a new server Group

For the module to work correctly, you need to create a group and add our server that we created to it. If you want to use several projects, you need to create your own server for each project and create a group and add one server to one group.

System Settings->Products/Services->Create New Group

6. Create a new Products/Services
System Settings->Products/Services->Create a New Product

 

In the Module settings section, select the "PUQ Hetzner Datacenter" module

Please note that you need to select a group with a configured server, so we can separate services by projects in the Hetzner console

Your Server is Now Ready for Use

Body:

Dear {$client_name},

Congratulations! Your server has been successfully deployed and is ready for you to begin configuring.

Server Details:
IPv4 DNS PTR: {$ipv4_dns_ptr}
IPv4 IP: {$ipv4_ip}
IPv6 IP: {$ipv6_ip}
Server Cores: {$server_cores}

Accessing Your Server

To begin managing your new server, you will need to connect via SSH (Secure Shell). Here’s how you can do that:

    Open an SSH client on your computer. For Windows, we recommend using PuTTY, while macOS and Linux users can use the built-in Terminal application.

    Connect to your server by executing the following command in your terminal or SSH client:
    ssh root@{$ipv4_ip}

    When prompted, enter the root password provided below:

    Root Password: {$root_password}

Once connected, you’ll have full access to your server’s console and can monitor the installation.
