Provider Guides

These guides focus on one Terrarium-friendly pattern:

1. create an Ubuntu 24.04 VPS
2. add your SSH key during provisioning
3. attach separate block storage when the provider supports it
4. install Terrarium in disk mode

Recommended providers for the cleanest Terrarium setup:

Provider	Separate block storage	CLI creation docs	Best Terrarium mode
DigitalOcean	Yes	Yes (doctl)	disk
Vultr	Yes	Yes (vultr-cli)	disk
Hetzner Cloud	Yes	Yes (hcloud)	disk
Hostinger	No documented attachable block volume	Limited CLI docs; use hPanel for creation	file

General recommendation:

• prefer disk mode with a separate data volume
• keep the boot disk for Ubuntu and host services
• reserve the extra volume for LXD and ZFS snapshots
