Our company (HQ Hoboken) is planning to move our current data center to a co-location somewhere in NJ or maybe NY (Manhattan). I'm kind of inexperinced on the US market since I've never been there. However, I'm travelling to Hoboken this Saturday and hope to schedule a tour and receive some quotes.
- We are looking for a private cage with space for 5 of our own cabinets, they will hold about 20 servers each. Not sure what the AMP will be, any minimum AMP to request for?
- At least 10 Mbps burstable.
- Redundant power etc.
Any thoughts about ReliableServers, CRNC or Net Access (NJ locals)?
I've been in touch with some companys working from CA but we want to be able to have a eastern contact. Basically they have said that i.e Level 3 is full and some others as well.
We are looking to install hardware barriers for caged spaces.
We were hoping not to use cyclone fencing.
Would like to use a solution aesthetically appealing without going completely over budget.
Anyone have a cabinet at Level 3's 111 N. Canal Datacenter available?
I'm looking for a cabinet specifically in that colo space, so no responses about other colo please.
Their facility is maxed out hence the inquiry.
In light of whats happened at the Planet in Houston we are moving up our plans to have an external DNS nameserver (with failover) and emergency website to alert customers in the event of our data center (C4D in Dallas) ever goes down.
From all the forum messages reagrds this event its apparent that a lot of hosting companies are suffering the worst from having their support websites at the DC where they host their customers and have no way of notifying their customers of whats going on.
Looking to trade 1U of rack space and 1 ip address anywhere in US (Dallas preferred) with someone else who is looking for the same thing.
While we are extremely happy with C4D and have faith in their DC, you can never be 100% prepared for things beyond your control.
Trying to find better pricing on a OC-3 / OC-12 link between One Wilshire in LAX and 60 Hudson St in NYC. Looking for pricing on both protected and unprotected circuits.
So far my best pricing is from XO, but I was hoping that someone had a lit circuit that I might not have thought of.
Looking for wavelengths, not IP or I would go with Cogent Layer 2.
Any Web hosting companies offering services based of servers hosted at the "one wilshire" building located in LA.

Now the cage installation is per linear foot. so if they are bumping one of the 12 feet walls out 6 feet. What do you think you should be charged? 6 + 6 + 12? or 6 + 6 + 12 + 12 OR 14 + 14 + 12 + 12?
Also what do you think the legality of a company charging you for a 6 + 6 + 12 + 12 expansion when the other 12 foot section is never touched? Charging for a service that isn't ever done?
I've got a compaq rack here and the guy i bought it from has some cage nuts in it to mount hardware(square holes).
well the nuts he has in it doesn't fit any of my Dell hardware... Where can i find cage nuts that will fit dell hardware?
im running out of space on one of my sites but i have more then plenty of data transfer.
Unfortunately my hosting packaged it weird where they provide not enough hd space. Im trying to figure out is there a way where i can use another server or hosting company that can provide space only and use their servers just for space?
i think amazon.com offered this but wasnt sure how exactly this works.
Apache 2.2.25 on windows 32
I have a ProxyPass that looks like
ProxyPass /Share Documents http://partner2/Shared Documents/
But Apache will not start with spaces. I tried
ProxyPass /Shared%20Documents http://partner2/Shared%20Documents/
Apache would start but the passthrough doesn't work. What do I need to do? I have several url's with spaces.
Please give me the difference. Colo in carrier hotel, we can choose our preferred network provider, but should we do that if we cannot have our own tech in datacenter? How about the supporting service from carrier hotel? Just general question, cause I dont address exactly which facility.
And the second would be more expensive? Saying the same number of rack, amount of bandwidth... Who is providing IP addresses then?
which case is more preferred: a shared web hosting service with unlimited space/bandwidth, or a dedicated one with limited space/bandwidth?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a 30gb vps which I only have used about 6gb. This 6gb is a live site so if that means anything.
I want to take 15gb of it and use it for personal ftp storage where I can access it at work and via at home so I don't have to always copy things to media discs.
My question is that will doing that and just leaving 9gb give or take on my live site affect performance or anything.
I read an offer from a company a month or so ago that offered some plan where you were given a certain amount of space on an ftp server. I'm not sure if it was hosting as well or just ftp space. Then each month you paid $5 or something and for as long as you have your account with them they give you and extra 5-10GB per month. So your space on the server grows with your needs.
Does anyone know the company? I can't find it anymore but I'd like to take another look at them.
Does any know of any UK companies who do public IP space? aka putting a request into RIPE for some IPs (with justification). We only need a class c and we cannot justify the fees of joining ourself to RIPE.
Getting IPs from our current provider isnt possible as we want our own IPs so if we ever moved away we could take the addresses with us without having to change.
I want to know which directories take up the most space in /usr and /var. What is the ssh command to do this?

The only thing is that I'm looking for a cheap hosting company with big web space where I can have all these stuffs files.
Does anyone here know a good one? The best would be within europe.
The last time I applied for a portable block from ARIN was about 7 years ago, and it was pretty easy to get when you could justify a /22. I'm just about to begin this process with my current company. Right now we're using a a /24 and 2x /23's from 3 different providers, and are hoping to get a portable block from ARIN.
Basically needing a /21, do we stand a chance of getting a portable block, or are we still stuck getting our prefix from one of our providers?
what is needed is a dedicated server or colocation in which my portable IP space (a class c assigned to me in 1995) can be routed to in its entirety. We will then have a VPN back to our own site. This could be accomplished by the ISP BGP peering, or simply announcing the routes themselves. We've got clue in routing, both in OpenBSD and IOS.
The machine doesn't have to be too powerful, and needs little storage space, but the bandwidth provided has to be decent. This is for a hobbyist rather than commercial project, so price is an issue.
I'm starting to get annoyed with companies stipulating that is it considered a waste of space to store your own files, and backups or whatever on your shared hosting account.
I don't understand why that is considered a waste of space you purchase that space and bandwidth. So why can you not use it for whatever you want in legal terms.
In fact I would be confident to say I have not seen a single terms of service NOT state that you cannot use your space as storage.
We delete LOGS.
We delete QUEUE mail.
After we add up all the space of the counts.
space of count1 + space of count2 + space of count3 + ... ALL COUNTS
And TOTAL < to 2GB included MySQL space
But space used (say Vistuozzo), is 8.47 Gb!
How we can understand this?
Ok, maybe 2 GB of CENTOS + cpanel + WHM+ MySQL + Files config = 2 GB
Home + MySQL = 2GB
4 GB is very different to 8.5 GB!
Ok think in 3 GB of SO+WHM+CONFIG add 2 GB of files this = 5 GB
I am using FreeBSD with Cpanel.
df -h:

This is creating Problem at Cpanel,How can i recover space from /dev/twed0s1a.
I have a server with cpanel/WHM. The file system says I am using 26GB of my 40GB:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 40G 26G 14G 66% /
none 257M 0 257M 0% /dev/shm
/usr/tmpDSK 243M 4.1M 226M 2% /tmp
/tmp 243M 4.1M 226M 2% /var/tmp
however the total of my accounts is less than 5GB.
How can I find out where all the other disk space is being used?
I have a partition /dev/sda2 which is mounted to /webroot.
Today, I find that I can't upload any files via IPB (running on lighttpd)
So, as usual, I went on SSH and tried df in order to see how much space is left on the server:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
<deleted>
/dev/sda2 20641788 19483292 109856 100% /webroot
Since lighttpd is running inside chroot, I thought it was the log files but even after I deleted them, it is still at 100% usage.
After spending some time, I couldn't find any large files so I did du -hs to see which folder is using large amount of space.
web1:/webroot# du -hs /webroot
2.2G /webroot
I'm without a clue on this as what du -hs is telling me and df is different but it seems like the partition is really full.
Any ideas?

One of my hosting accounts has tons of extra space on it. Both bandwith and disk space. Enough to easily run one additional site. How can I use that extra space as hosting for another separate domain?
So its like using one hosting account for two different domains.
In a VPS package, the space designated, say 20 GB... contains all OS files, Control Panel files, and other utility files. and it will be say 25% of the space remains for data .. I mean for the /home/ folder/..
I wonder if someone has done any research on space taken by different OS's and CP's. Since for me, who cant afford to pay more to get more space, space allocated/remaind for my /home folder matters a lot lot.
Also, for example, if the the monthly/weekly/daily backup is enabled, then the space for home folder becomes almost half!
I would like to hear any advice to choose the best combination of OS/CP and the Backup settings, to get the maximum of spaces in the homefolder, say on a VPS package of 25 GB.
Does anyone know how most hosters would handle this situation?A hoster has a customer with a certain config, let's say 2 servers and a firewall
This customer anticipates growing, perhaps later in the year, and will likely add a number of servers
In an effort to avoid migrations within the DC, does the hoster reserve space in the rack?
Would the hoster charge the customer for said reserved space?
I'm just wondering what standard practice is, if there is one.
I've got a server in a local colo facility. both the facility and my server are slowly falling apart. Rather than investing in hardware and then shipping it to some location and hoping it doesn't break, I've decided to investigate VPS.
What I am finding is puzzling me. Why do providers charge so much for disk space? My current old p3-733 has a 30gb drive, I could deal with about 15gb but with some 'flex' room (i.e. a virtual drive for uncompressing files or some such). It's a personal server for me and a couple of friends, it doesn't get much traffic, I don't need a heck of a lot of bandwidth, nor anything flashy, just Ubuntu 8.04. I see places offering plenty of traffic for a decent price, yet little in the way of storage. I just don't get it.
A year ago I was here wanting to trade my class C for a dedicated server. I realize now that it would be pretty difficult for providers to do this, because if I wanted to yank my class c they'd have to renumber. But if anyone is still interested, let me know.
how much do u need for a vbulletin forum?
I only want my forum to have 500-1000 registerd members..
I have a VDS with 20GB drive, currently its running at 81% capacity, I have looked around but am of the opinion its not the accounts that are using that much space.
Is there a simple method of finding out whihc folders are using all the space?
