Management

At this section we will show you possibilities of EasyDCIM For WHMCS.

Our module allows you to offer EasyDCIM via your WHMCS system.

Admin Area

As soon as you set up server for client, you can request various actions and view server details from WHMCS admin area.

'Change Password' action changes SSH access details to clients server while 'Update Order Information' allows you to manually check if server matching order have been found and assigned.

ED 16.png
Our module allows you to boot/reboot/shutdown server, as well as view its details.

Tips

1. Note that two identical orders may result in assigning server with slightly different parametters.

It is the result of the way EasyDCIM server matching works. It matches server based on resources and models mentioned in the order, without considering other resources.
While it tries to find server matching order completely, in case it fails, server fullfilling more requirements than others will be assigned.
More information about server provisioning flow can be found on EasyDCIM documentation page.

Common Problems

1. When you have problems with connection, check whether your SELinux or firewall does not block ports.
