to ship 2 machines to LINX and DECIX from the US, and obviously need either adapters or just new cables. I'm just not certain what plug type is used at both or either location. I guess I'm looking for information similar to like what we have here in the US (NEMA 1-15 or NEMA 2-20).
I'm looking at these adapters:
Grounded CEE7/7 - Germany
British BS 1363 - UK
I'm currently running Dell 1750s, 1850s, and 1950s in a colo facility. I am not happy with the 1850s and 1950s power consumption. My 1950s have a single quad core 5310, 2GB memory, dual 15k 73GB drives, dual power suppies and are running at about 1.9 amps with spikes up to 2.4 amps. My applications are disk bound and the servers typically run at a load of .1 to .2.
I'm looking for alternatives to the 1950 that use significantly less power. I need at least 2 Hot Plug SAS drives and would like to have it in 1U. I run 2GB of memory. Dual power supplies would be nice, but are not absolutely necessary. I'd rather not go with a non-hot plug solution, but may have to consider it. I will probably buy 10-15 servers soon and would like them to be identical. I'd prefer buying a name-brand.
We operate many Plesk VPS servers in a virtual environment for our customers and would really like the ability to allow Plesk VPS servers to switch to using our PPA DNS servers instead of having to have multiple ips on each VPS to run their own name servers. Not to mention the added nuisance of each customer having to register name servers and glue records.
We looked at adding the Plesk servers as nodes to our PPA cluster but the license jump and loss of Nginx is completely prohibitive. Is this possible?
what network device would suit our needs (and whether there is something like what we need).
The device should meet following criteria:
-it should appear as one device only: a L2 switch is not an option as the device has to announce only one MAC address on the uplink port
-plug&play: a gigabit L3 switch is not an option because we would have to change the default gateway of the already configured servers to the L3 switch's IP
-gigabit ports
Is there any reliable device that could be used for this purpose?
do dual power supplies use more power than a single supply?
E.g. Say I have a server than uses two amps, powered by a single power supply. Now if I switch to a dual supply (and say each supply has the same efficiency rating as the single), does my server use more power? How much more?
My simple view of this is that it probably does, but maybe not much. The second power supply consumes some power itself, but since its not under load, it doesn't consume much. Therefore, my server with redundant supplies might use 2.1A or 2.2A.
Is it possible to host my own webpage off my own computer or no? And if so, how?

I recently logged into my Windows Server 2003 OS Server via Remote Desktop and was met with a message/box saying Why did this computer shutdown. It had a dropdown field for a reason and then empty text fields for Problem ID and Comment.

I have been using Vista 32-bit with FileZilla for 2-years on this computer. I haven't made any recent changes to my system, but suddently NO FTP clients work.
I tried FileZilla and FireFTP (firefox extension). Neither can connect. FileZilla just gives a timeout error. FireFTP has been "connecting" for 5-minutes. No success.
I tried to bypass my Linksys router and go directly through my cable model. They still do not work.
I *CAN* connect to an FTP site using telnet command.

And what would your budget be for this configuration? What do you expect to pay for it?
The CPU would be as the following:

Single CPU Quad Core Xeon 5430
Dual CPU Quad Core Xeon 5430
What standard configuration would you expect on these?

View 14 Replies View RelatedWe are currently in a limited Alpha for a very demanding web application. We'll (hopefully) be in closed Beta in 3 months and go live / open beta after all issues are fixed.
Our problem is that we know that we will need, even for the open beta, a costly setup.
We are talking about 2 front-end servers for Apache / PHP / Memcached, 2 for a Mysql Cluster / replication / partitioned (undecided) and at least 1 just for pre-processing stuff that later will go to the database.
Growing from those requirements is very possible, so we would like to be able to add new computers to the cluster, more processing machines, more front-ends, a load balancer, etc.
Of course we have considered the Cloud (Amazon S3 and stuff), but those 5 initial machines are a must for us.
My question is, what is the best solution here, a rack with a private Lan/fast switches?
What are the recommended companies for this kind of installations? Will they manage everything or just rent the rack?
Any clues about how costly (setup and monthly) this kind of setup would be? I can't find specific prices for these "special installations" anywhere, they all want us to call and we are just preparing for 4/6 months on the road.

When i add a new domain to plesk, it puts in the correct Name servers in, but it also adds the computers name into the list and when getting it checked out from intodns.com it flags it saying missing Name Servers.

I'm sure there is an easy answer to this, and i'm probably being a little lazy, but the google searches i did didn't really help.
As I need to have windows hosting, apart from the price, is there any difference between setting up the server with windows 2003 standard edition and web edition?
I want to run MS SQL and My sql databases, run asp, .Net 2 and php on the server.
I'd also want to connect with RDP which i'm assuming is fine.
Most of the searches seem to talk about the fact that you can't set up active directory,or making it a domain controller but not much else.
What is the difference between standard web hosting and virtual hosting?
