1. Manual Provisioning: For those services which cannot be provisioned automatically you can use Control button to provision. For example, Dedicated server provisioning.

2. Provisioning Failed Orders: If for any reason an order is failing to provision you may use the Control button to provision it.

If you are unable to see VPS setup interface, check popup blocker settings.

You need to select DNS pool, Allocate Public IP's & Private IP's.

Click Finish and Close the popup window.
