to move from shared windows hosting to Dedicated windows hosting. This will be our first dedicated server and experience with dealing it too.
Someone suggested me Rackspace. But they were charging premium rates 440 USD for entry level windows server.
Been using the Hivelocity dedicated server for a while now and at first was happy with it’s hosting performance, but after using Hivelocity for about 6 months I’m no longer as impressed unfortunately (especially unimpressed with Hivelocity support).
When the dedicated server worked it was fine, but I was finding it down every so often and there’s no remote reboot with an unmanaged Hivelocity server (at least Server4you had remote reboots with their servers) and their support staff on live chat (who have to order reboots manually!) are far from impressive at supporting their customers at times when they really need support!
If you have a dedicated server and you only need management and support team. how much will that cost. some body who can take care of all aspects including security and in time of trouble can answer support tickets.

View 1 Replies View RelatedCan you reccomend - based on your experience - some dedicated hosting provider with a solid freebsd experience ? By "solid" I mean they will be able to provide a decent freebsd installation (especially if a control panel is requested) on tested hardware, rather than setup their standard server, put on it a freebsd7 iso, do a very poor setup then discover something like the raid card does not work as expekted, scratch their head, embarass themselves proposing centos as an alternative, and similar ridiculous behaviour ...
[I am in the market for a middle range core duo with 4gigs ram. Budget around 180$, 210$ including DirectAdmin. 2000GB bw on a 100mbit port. NY, DC, VA datacenters highly favourite, but also a well-networked chicago one would do, I guess].
Some information about my forum:
I run a VBulletin forum with - 575,614 post, 14,369 members and 2.9 million page views per month. On average there are 300 - 400 people on the site.
The server right now is a Linux CentOS VPS with 1.1 gigs of memory. The hosting provider keeps telling me that I need a dedicated server.
Question # 1 - In your opinion - do you think its time for a dedicated server?
The server I am looking at has these stats:
E8300
2 GB RAM
250GB HD
cPanel
Management
The price I was given is pretty good. So the offer is going to be hard to pass up.
Question # 2 - Has anyone here used Future Hosting for their dedicated server solution?
I am currently using a shared hosting but due to increasing traffic and server load my existing host is not able to provide reliable services and I am planning to upgrade my hosting service.
While I was searching for Dedicated Servers, I learnt about Virtual Dedicated Servers but I am not very sure about their reliability? Are Virtual Dedicated Servers useful? My website current serves over 2500-3000 visitors a day resulting in 30,000 pageviews and I am expecting the traffic to grow by atleast 2 folds in the next few months as I start some PPC campaigns and Email Marketing for my website. Can a Virtual Dedicated Server cater such needs assuming my website to be more of less dynamic website written in php?
I have an account that is going from a shared hosting account to a dedicated with theplanet and I want to transfer it. Concerns I have is that the site is using an SSL. What things do I need to watch out for when transferring. Since I don't have root access I will have to do this transfer with the account function, correct?
This site has a database and SSL, so I thought it would hopefully be easier to use the cpanel account migration tool

I have been given a fairly high spec dedicated server and I would like suggestions what I could do with it.
Briefly the spec is: Dual Opteron, Two 360GB HDD's, 4GB Ram, on Unmetered Bandwidth located in Germany.
I don't want to host anything like warez, torrent server or any web -hosting service. ( I already have a hosting server )
I got control of some colocation resource in Taipei, Hong Kong and several cities in China (Beijing, Shanghai and probably Guangzhou & Shenzhen), and is now considering starting a business by deploying blade servers into my racks with Internet bandwidth as well as private bandwidth interconnected between the above IDC.
My target will be corporation, web developer / SI who want their / their clients' web site or IP application online with target users in those regions.
I prefer to deploy VM or VPS instead of dedicated servers as space/electricity in China is very expensive and higher density should be the way to go.
So I'd like to know more what the difference is between VM and VPS in terms of customer perception and actual features.
In areas of VM and VPS, which vendor do you recommend and why?
I have one Dedicated server , with Centos 5 and Cpanel. I want with *a magic way* to have and some vps 4 -5 in the same server,

what is the difference between dedicated servers and VPS?

View 7 Replies View RelatedJust found out about these RPS Servers from my friend. They are dedicated servers without a Hard Drive directly inside of them. They are connected elsewhere for some reason however it makes them alot cheaper that way especially worth while for the need of Dedicated systems for low costs.
I wondered if anyone else had experiance using these systems and/or this host also?
And wanted to know if most thought these would be acceptable to run Shoutcast Hosting ? I know it depends on resources etc but I mean generally speaking with these specs. Im pretty convinced to get this rather than a VPS.

I bought a dedicated server from FDC a few days ago, and it has been becoming unresponsive a lot lately, ie WHM/CPanel and SSH not responding etc, and It's been rebooted about 4 times in the last 36 hours, with the last time NOT being requested by me.
Server Specs:
AMD X2 3600
2Gb Ram
400Gb HDD
Running Centos 5
uname -r 2.6.18-8.1.10.el5
and WHM 11.11.0 cPanel 11.12.0=C17327
vmstat 5 5 and ps-auxf are added as attachments.

To the crux of the matter
1) I use the server to provide downloads of some unlicensed videos and movies, and from what I gather, the server is receiving too many connections? or running out of memory?
Is this right? Is 2Gb not enough?Is it worth $139 to upgrade to 3Gb?
About how much memory will I need? Is the CPU fine as it is?
2) Also, can I use the mod_limitipconn.c as in the forum to limit people downloading .avi's and .mkv's to 1? (even thou i use centos?)
3) Is there anything else I can do to ensure that the server doesn't get hammered too hard, and is still able to function (apart from the obvious having less users?)
4) Is there something else that is causing the server to become unresponsive (if it's not the lack of memory?)
I have 2 vps now and all are managed. i am paying 70 $ for this. i don't know the real differences between vps and dedicated server. i have many more dedicated servers in 1and1. i am using them for file storage only. there servers and network is really good. but support is less. but i didn't asked for their support in this 6 months. i can do everything myself from my CP. ok, back to the point now i got an offer from them today,
1& 1 root server S64
of genuine root servers for fastidious homepage and data base applications. In July for sensational
49euro/Month!
Processor AMD Athlon 64x TM 3,200+, 2 x 80 GB non removable disk, 1 GB RAM uvm, plesk 8.1, 5000 GB bandwidth.
So i am thinking about this offer and i am thinking about moving my 2 vps to this dedicated server. so actually what makes the difference ? because i saw lot of vps offers here and most of the good companies are charging 50$ + here. but this comes only 67 $. anyone thinks is this a good move? or is it so hard to manage the websites on dedicated server? please guide me mates. thanks
