How Do You Colocate In Far Far Away Land

Nov 9, 2009

how to proceed with collocation say somewhere in usa ? Since i am based in Canada, and dell.com wont accept orders from me..... i did end up buying a server and get it shipped here and than later ship it across border and pay hefty fees for that to just get server collocated.

How do you guys do it ? Where you get your parts() from ?

Above all i am still lost as to what 95th percentile rule is and how the $xy per xy mbps works?

VPS Land HORRIBLE, TERRIBLE Service

May 2, 2008

I signed up for a VPS Land server over a week ago, and everything worked great for the first week. I then began having issues where the server would crash and I would then be stuck at this error:

"System could not log you on. Make sure your User name and domain are correct, then type your password again. Letters in passwords must be typed using the correct case."

Over the last 4 days or so this error has continued to plague me, and after multiple support tickets their only solution was to "Buy more RDP connections" as I was using 2, one for myself, one for my employee to use. I bought 2 more connections for $5 as they recommended and it did NOT fix the problem. In fact, since about Wednesday I've been completely locked out of the server and my support tickets have basically been replied to with:

"We can logon to your box no problem, please email us back if you continue to have issues."

Well, of course, since I'm locked out of the box, I emailed back asking if there is ANYTHING I could do to get it working, as I am losing $200/day in employee fees while he cannot work.

My replies go unheard, and I continue until late Friday night to be completely locked out of the server and my support tickets go unanswered.

I realize that I'm only paying for a cheap $30 a month VPS, but I need this to be reliable. I'm being treated as if I'm completely unimportant and now and I have lost several day's work and employee fees because of this. I even asked if I could pay more to get better service and my emails go unanswered.

I NEED a reliable VPS and cost at this point is no object. With the money I have lost while using VPS Land's HORRIBLE unreliable service I could have had a dedicated box from a real host that actually cares about whether or not it's customers are getting screwed.

I can't logon to the box and they act as though I'm lying.

Colocate

Mar 27, 2007

What I figured out is probably I need to have my own server as I am not finding them as an offer anywhere, reasonable enough to buy.

We do application hosting, and this is what we have seen until now isWe have database intensive applications
Never used beyond 300 GB of our metered bandwidth
All Applications consumed maximum of 3 GB space till date
All databases have never grown beyond 3 GB.
So we thought to have server with following specs and then collocate.AMD Opteron Dual Core
2 x 36 GB SCSI drives
Currently 2 GB RAM but should expandable to 4 GB
Preferred Super Micro motherboard (with IMPI)
1000-1500 GB metered quality bandwidth
10 mps dedicated port (up gradable to 100 mps like Softlayer)
Remote reboot port
6- IPs
Problems:We are not located in US
Never collocated before and do not know any intricacies.
Will colocation is practical option to us? If so, please help us know the RIGHT COLOCATION SPECS, the expected cost and the thing we should consider for decision. Also the appropriate server specs to order.

Self-host Or Colocate

Feb 27, 2007

I am hosting my own web site on Jboss using my home windows machine.

Currently everything is running smooth apart from the now-and-then disonnection from my cable ISP (normal connection-not business)

Should I just get a business internet connection and do things myslef or should I consider colocating my server?

Why Colocate When You Can Just Rent A Server

Jun 5, 2008

colocate because you have sites the size of myspace or because you offer dedicated server hosting yourselves? Because if I have the choice of renting a high end server at ThePlanet for $200 per month, or pay $300 a month for only bandwidth and just to have my server sit there in their facility, I rather rent. Plus I read a few posts in this forum where you guys say that you spend hours in the colocate. Does your server require that much maintenance or what are you doing?

Plesk Automation :: Adding Dedicated IP Breaks Site (visitors Land On Default Site)

Apr 14, 2015

Starting point: a working site using a shared IPv4, dedicated IPv6, and SSL. HTTP and HTTPS work, the latter only using SNI of course.

The good news: If I simply allocate an IP resource of 1 to a subscription it is pulled from the pool, assigned to the service node, assigned to the web site, DNS is updated, and the site is automatically changed to using a Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6.

The bad news: visitors land on the default web site of the service node, with the default SSL certificate.

Other info: I can't ping the new IP, even though it shows in "ip a l" and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0. [edited]

After the IP assignment, it is still installed, and /etc/httpd/conf/plesk.conf.d/ip_default/domainname.conf shows the new certificate is being used.

However, a second set of VirtualHost entries is created in server.conf for this IP for ports 80 and 443, with NameVirtualHost enabled on the new IP. The port 443 entry uses the default certificate. Apache's setup this default VirtualHost entry will override the web site configuration because Apache is listening on port 443 with the wrong cert.

If I go to "Change webspace settings" and toggle to Shared IPv4, Dedicated IPv6 the site works again via HTTPS, and Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6 breaks it again. Setting the SSL cert to None and back again does not work.

Setting the SSL cert to None, changing to a dedicated IP, and enabling SSL results in the server being inexplicably inaccessible...browsers no longer connect to either the default site or the correct site, and I don't see any entries in the vhosts's logs.
