Deploying ONLYOFFICE DocSpace in Vultr

Log in to your Vultr account and click the Deploy Server button or use the Deploy + button and choose the Deploy New Server option.

If necessary, you may choose an appropriate server type in the Choose Type section: Optimized Cloud Compute - Dedicated CPU, Cloud Compute - Shared CPU, Cloud GPU, or Bare Metal.

You may also choose the location closest to you in the Choose Location section: Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia, Africa.

In the Choose Image section, switch to the Marketplace Apps tab. Find ONLYOFFICE DocSpace in the Business category and click it to choose. If you launched the instance from the details page, the ONLYOFFICE DocSpace app is selected automatically.

In the Choose Plan section, you may select the option you want to use or leave the default one. The available options may differ depending on the selected server location.

It's recommended to choose 16 GB of Memory for running your DocSpace.

Optionally, you may set up some additional features: enable Auto Backups, IPv6 networking, DDOS Protection (this option is available for certain locations only), VPC Network etc.

The SSH Keys section allows you to add a public SSH key if you want to connect to your server using an SSH key instead of a password. If you have previously added SSH public keys in your Vultr account, they will be displayed in this section. You can choose the necessary public key or add a new one. A private key must be stored on your local machine. To learn more how to create SSH key pairs and add the public key to an instance, you can refer to the Vultr documentation.

If necessary, specify the Server Hostname & Label.

Click the Deploy Now button.

The newly created instance will be displayed on the Vultr Products page. Wait while the instance is being installed. When its status is changed to 'Running', click on the server name or use the Server Details option to open the Server information page.

On the Server information page, you can also find your root password which is necessary to access the instance.

On Linux, you can use an SSH client like OpenSSH. Enter ssh root@your_instance_ip to your terminal and type yes to continue connecting to the server.

• If you haven't added SSH keys, you'll be prompted for your root password that can be found on the Server information page.
• If you have multiple SSH keys, you may need to specify the path to your private key: ssh -i /path/to/private/key root@your_instance_ip You will be authenticated using your private key.

Wait while the installation process is completed.
