Great to see that you're adding bandwidth to the network! OVH does indeed allow running middle relays, and many relay operators have one or more running there: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#search/as:AS16276 However, there is also a slight problem here, as having many relays at one hosting company is not so good for Tor's network diversity. If you have the option between running a node at a popular hoster or a less popular one, go with the latter. See Tor's community website for tips on picking a hoster: https://community.torproject.org/relay/technical-considerations/#as/location-diversity > I used this configurator here > https://tor-relay.co/setup/bb7f44360c00b8d2783ef4a3f8f52f78 > To install unattended upgrades.

Looking at the script you're linking to, it seems that you're using this unattended-upgrades configuration: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flxn/tor-relay-configurator/master/misc/50unattended-upgrades.Debian This configuration will _not_ automatically reboot your VPS when required for a kernel update. If you want automatic reboots, change this line in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades: Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot "false"; to: Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot "true";
