Technical support
I need to report an incident, how do I do that?
First of all, you have to open an incident ticket. To do this, log in to your Cloud Customer Space, go to the support tab, and then you have two solutions:
- call the support number indicated in the downloadable file.

If you have subscribed to additional support (Bronze, Silver or Gold), after declaring your incident to the support (ticket created), you can contact the Cloud Expert team via the information provided to you during signing the contract.

Go to the Cloud Customer Space, and use the Requests option from the main menu.

Cloud Customer Space
I’m a brand new customer, I received my welcome email, what should I do next?
If you have subscribed to a support option, you can contact Cloud Expert who will give you a guided tour of the offer and its possibilities.
When creating your account, in order to deploy VMs, you will need to create:
- at least one virtual datacenter
- a public IP address (if you need to access the internet)
If you have ordered a BVPN Galerie connection to your organization, you will need to ask support (via a ticket) to connect your organization to your BVPN. To take into account in the planning of your project: the order of the BVPN connection can take up to 4 weeks, while the organization will be provided to you within 48 hours after receipt of the order.
How can I find out what internet bandwidth I have available for my organization?
Go to the Customer Area, Catalog menu.
Use the Manage the organization’s internet access tile. You will find step-by-step help here.
I received an email from abuse-desk@orange.com, what does this mean?
A public IP you are using has been detected as a SPAM sender. Carefully follow the instructions mentioned in the email you received to unblock the situation.
We tell you more in this practical sheet here.
I need to create a new organization, how do I do this?
There are several possible cases:
- You are already a Could Avenue Partner Customer: contact your usual Partner contact to create the new organization for you.
- You are a Cloud Avenue Partner and/or Reseller: Go to the Cloud Customer Space to create organizations for your own Customers.
- You are a Cloud Avenue Direct Customer: contact your usual sales contact with whom you will fill out an order form for the creation of a new organization.
What is a Partner Account?
In order for existing users in the cloud store to be able to access a new organization (a new tenant), the manager user of the new organization must explicitly grant them access. If you have several organizations and wish to be able to create more, managing these organizations will be made easier for you by obtaining a “partner” login on the Cloud Customer Space.
How to get a Partner account?
- Make a request to your usual sales contact, you will give him your surname, first name, email address, telephone number, creation option yes/no
- If you asked “option creation = yes”, this new login will allow you to create new organizations. Their consumption will be billed to you as for other organisations.
- You will receive a new login (firstname.lastname.company) which accesses the cloud store in read-only mode, without access to the technical consoles.
- This login automatically accesses all your contracts on the cloud store, even those created recently by you or by others.
