Required level: Read only
Rate limit: read, 3,600 calls per hour

Operating system templates available for a reinstallation: category: ssh (bare systems) and category: app (preinstalled application). The list is not paginated.

The os / variant pair is exactly what POST /servers/{vmid}/rebuild expects. min_memory_gb is in gigabytes (0: no minimum) and lets you check that a VPS is eligible before reinstalling it.
