Changelog
v2.1.0
Released December 13th, 2019
Latest Version
-
Feature: IPMI Proxy: Possibility for 1:1 NAT
-
Feature: It is now possible to run a pre-profile before installing the operating system. This allows, for example, to delete the metadata on the hard disks and prevent conflicts during the operating system installation. If you enable this option, make sure that the recovery systems are correctly defined in the module settings. Otherwise, the pre-installer will also be executed on recovery boots.
-
Feature: Option to disable the KVM availibility checks on the client area page
-
Feature: Option to disable automatic provisioning of server if the server is currently online
-
Feature: Option to disable automatic provisioning of server if the server is currently being installed via NOC-PS.
This prevents servers that have just been terminated from being delivered before the NOC-PS wipe profile is completed.
-
Feature: A new option is available in the module settings, which allows old installation logs to be automatically deleted from the database after a certain number of days
-
Improvement: Due to the SSL-Checker of WHMCS the AJAX requests were slow under circumstances. The AJAX requests are now sent to another address so that the SSL Checker is not executed. This only affects the client area.
-
Improvement: Some special characters are not processed correctly by NOC-PS. The clientarea template was extended by an HTML5 input pattern. If the customer enters invalid characters during a new installation, a corresponding message appears now.
-
Improvement: If an error occurs when opening KVM, the error is now better noted in the module log
-
Improvement: It is now ensured that the boxes on the "Server Management" page are the same size. Before, it could happen that there is too much vertical space between the boxes
-
Bugfix: If a setting was changed in the module settings, the change was only visible the next time the page was reloaded. This caching bug has been fixed.

The module works great and the support team is the best we ever dealt with. We had a problem migrating over from a custom made nocps to this one and they went above and beyond for us to get everything running smooth. Really highly recommend
Jakub @jakub2619
Well documentated software, super b.
Mehdi Santino @mehdi7417
The module does what it should. We love it.
Alexandr Chernishev @Alexandr
This is the best product for WHMCS in recent years.
Excellent functionality, no bugs and easy setup. This is the case when you just get what you were looking for and you do not need to finish it yourself.
Great product! A great developer.
Szymon Kowalczyk @szymon-kowalczyk
Nice design & works perfectly. Especially the configurable options support with auto provisioning is nice to have.
