Servers
A BareMetal server is a fully configured physical server connected to the network via two 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps network interfaces. Its hardware and network resources are physically isolated and can be accessed only by the user leasing the server.
Warning
Default BIOS settings are optimal for a BareMetal server. We do not recommend changing them.
Server lease
You can lease a server for 1, 3, 6 months or 1 year. You can view the configurations available for lease in each pool when ordering a server in the management console.
Server access
You can manage a server using the KVM console, which is available from the management console.
Server pools
Pools are infrastructurally separate data center modules servers physically reside in. Pools are distributed across availability zones located in regions. Currently, Yandex BareMetal is only available in the Russia region.
| Region | Availability zone | Pools |

ru-central1 |
ru-central1-m |

Contact support.
Quarantine
Quarantine: A transition state before server lease is fully terminated. In this state, the server is still listed in the user's directory. Users cannot access quarantined servers over the network or through a KVM console, but the server retains all user data and settings. The quarantine period is 72 hours. Following this period, the settings and data get completely deleted from the server, and the server itself gets removed from the user's directory.
At any time during the quarantine period, you can restore the server for further use. To restore the server, contact support.
