my Budget is only 200$ Do you think i can get this server with this Budget?
Dual CPU 5504 Nehalem Xeon setup
New Nehalem architecture, 2x quad core 2ghz cpus (8 total cores at 2ghz)
16gb DDR3
4x 73gb 15k rpm sas (no need raid )
1TB (over 1GB PORT)
Windows 2008 Data-center
I ask webnx if they can provide me this but NO reply and i am waiting to see what is they are reply
If you have experience with large mysql databases please share your thoughts about a new MySQL server. If all other parameters are the same, what is better for a 6-10 GB MySQL db, dedicated server?
Dual XEON or Dual Opteron 2212 Dual Core Processor?
Also, any advice on suggested RAM, partitioning, OS, etc. are welcome. Current MySQL version used is 4.1.21.
Web hosting is a competitive business with thousands of providers in the market. Success as a web hosting provider often comes down to maximizing the number of customers we can support for each additional server added to the infrastructure. To improve our success in this equation, it becomes critically important to find and use the correct machine/severs - all for excellent prices.
So friends I was just guessing an approx. no. of clients I will be able to accommodate per Intel-Nehalem-Server, (depending on the server resource utilization).
Which will be a better choice? 5430's CPU speed, bus speed, cache and price beats 5520 easily, while 5520 is only better due to the advantage of HT, which I don't think it improves performance much...
Intel Xeon Harpertown 5430 CPU Speed - 2.66GHz Bus Speed - 1333MHz Cache - 1 x 12MB
Intel Xeon Nehalem 5520 CPU Speed - 2.26GHz + Hyper-Threading Bus Speed - 1066Mhz Cache - 1 x 8MB
I want to colo dual xeon 3ghz/ 2 x 250 sata drive and Dual core 3.0 / 2 x250 Sata drive.
How much amp these server need? One colo company said 4amp for dual and 2 for dual core. Do I need 6amp for 2 servers? Rack comes with 15amp so I need half rack?
But say: I have 2 servers, one with a dual CPU and another one with a single CPU but dual core. The CPUs have all the same specification (bus speed, cache, frequency, etc). Which one would perform better for web hosting (php, mysql)?
in my experience, when I take a server with Dual PSU and plug in just one of the PSU to a PDU, the PDU reads 2 amps. When I plug in the second PSU, it still reads 2 amps, not much change. May be it was originally 1.6 and the additional PSU just added 0.4amps.
Now, if I am planning to plug in the two PSUs into two different PDUs, what should I see reading on both of the PDUs? 2 amps and 0 amps? 1 amp each? or something else?
How do you guys normally balance the power? cause I bet if I unplug one of the PSUs the other PDU where the second PSU is connected will read 2 amps. So its seems to be happening at some what random, or am I missing something here?
i have a domain with me..and the site is live..some times the HELM panel hosted site never responds..so i have a hosting panel of c panel i have uploaded the same site in c panel as i cannot change the dns frequently so can i put all the primary and secondary for HELM and 3 and 4 for c panel... do my site and mail service will work>>??
If I'm going to be building a dual L5410 what do you guys recommend motherboard wise?
Would like at least 6 RAM slots and need a good chassis to go with it. preferably supermicro. can anyone recommend something that goes well with each other... only newegg parts please!
i was looking at the X7DCA-L but can't find a good chassis for it.
Does anyone know of a fairly low cost dual power supply Ethernet switch. Nothing fancy is needed, just a simple 12-24 port switch that has redundant power features.
Our router and four little servers all have dual power supplies. Two big UPS units in a redundant setup would work great for us. The only weak link in the setup is the switch.
We have 2 servers with old Dual Opteron 285's and would like preform an upgrade. I'm not sure where to start, these servers are for webhosting and load is pretty much around 3~5 during peak times.
We have the following choices:
Single Q9550 (Will it preform better than my current CPUs? Are they suitable for server use?)
Dual E5405's (Slowest Harpertown, is it worth it?)
Just recently while browsing Newegg and Ebay, I realized I could build a great server consisting of Dual Opteron 270's to 280's with Dual HDD's, Great Asus 1U Barebones Setup , 4GB of Ram for about $650 if I went with used CPU's
Now I don't know about you, but that sounds like quite the bang for the buck. Also considering I have an aggregate bandwidth commitment, and only pay $50 per server I add to my rack, it really isn't a huge downside to say build three of these rather then one Harpertown setup.
Well at least this is my opinion. I was curious to see what others opinions are. I figure with the up and coming cloud technology, and the high prices of new technology, this would be a good investment, but do you think it is worth it to build outdated hardware? Would I be better off just building higher spec servers? How do these servers stack up to some of the newer technology? Are they still considered poewrful?
Anyways just thought I would get some opinions before I went and bought a bunch of outdated hardware
i have a windows 2003 server with dual nic connected to 2 different router with 2 */29 ip on each NIC. however, there are a lot of weird problem happening.... anybody else has this problem?
I am looking at some options for a server and have a dual processor question.
I am looking at a server with two Dempsey 5050 processors.
My question is this.
Is it possible to put two Dempsey 5050 processors in a server and turn one of them off so it can not be used?
I know some are going to say why do i want to do this and I might as well explain it now to get it out of the way. My colo will not let me keep space parts on hand and I have a client that may want to single Dempsey 5050 processor in his server and I would like to keep one Dempsey 5050 on hand as a spare for my server and other servers that use the Dempsey 5050 processor. I figured if put one on a board that supports two Dempsey 5050's and turn it off it would be like keeping a spare on hand.
This is probably the wrong location for this thread but I am unsure which section it is best located at.
I have 2 hard drives - 1 has XP pro installed (master drive) on it and the other is blank and set to slave. On the blank one i intedn to install Red Hat linux.
How is the best way to create a dual boot with these machines if each hard drive has one O/S dedicated to it.
where is currently the "best" places to rent a dual core atom with about 2gb of ram, storage requirements are very low sub 50gb.
I am interested in getting two of these in total in different dcs (US/EU only).
Also something which I feel would be interesting is getting one up with a SSD. Has any one come across any where offering this?
There seems to be alot of variation on prices directly in the atom niche, and then we you compare it to the same companies offering on their bigger brothers (quad core xyz) it makes things much more confusing.
I have no interest in cheaper 5 year old hardware which might compare speed wise
