Currently, I run cPanel servers for my clients and also host my company website on them. However, I now wish to place my company website on a seperate system running ISP Manager, and in order to connect the servers to my DNS I presume that I would have to use DNS clustering.
Here is my question - how would I create a DNS cluster between cPanel and ISP Manager? Anyone know how?
Hi there, i have few question for the best suited DNS Setup for our compagny.
We have tree server located in montreal.
Two are running web services, one of them is only for dns ( home server ).
Two main server have Whm/Cpanel.
One run Cpanel Dns only.
Main server have 7 ips each
Dns server, only have 1
Let say we use domain xxx.com
Right now we have ns1/ns2/ns3/ns4 point to server1
ns5/ns6/ns7 point to server2
We have no Nameserver that point to our dns only server for now.
I'd like to advoid runing DNS Service on all of them, maybe having two slave one master would be fine. Question: What would be the best suited dns setup with my current config for best responding time and fast replication?
I´m running 4 servers on a cpanel - dns - cluster.
- 1 running cpanel (srv01)
- 3 running cpanel-dns-only (cluster01 - cluster03)
My DNS config is:
srv01 - dns1.domain.com
cluster01 - dns2.domain.com
I ´ve setup on srv01:
- cluster01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster02 (standalone)
- cluster03 (standalone)
On cluster01:
- srv01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster02 (standalone)
- cluster03 (standalone)
And on cluster02 and cluster03, I did something like that:
- srv01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster03 (standalone)
And
- srv01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster01 (synchronize changes)
- cluster02 (standalone)
1. So, is that correct?
2. It seems that when I click on 'syncronize all DNS records on all the servers' only cluster01 and srv01 got all the DNS records. So is it normal?
Yet If I add a domain on cluster02 for example, where I need to add the DNS? cluster02 named.conf or on cluster01/srv01?
I have been searching everywhere trying to find a tutorial but It is not going anywhere. Basically I need to create 2 nameservers for Godaddy and pretty much so when i type http://mysite.com it goes to my site. I can access everything from http://myip and everything works. Now is there a step by step on how to actually do it in the DNS Manager? I need help like what IP address do I use is it the router ip? The external IP?

Years ago, Plesk did have the option to choose the domains to backup (Admin login). However, It was a problem at times because I would forget to include new domains.
I do not know of any similar option present now to exclude a domain from the full Scheduled Backup.
I am thinking that I could set up a reseller (myself), put all of the sites I would like to backup more often in that account and run backup from that level.
The Problem with including all of the sites is that the SUPER LARGE site, bogs downs the backup process and I really do not knew it included as often.
After we update to plesk 12. We are not able to access file manager inside plesk.
Its giving this error : check attachment,
Also when we tries to delete a domain we can't its giving this error message : Failed to parse response. Reason: Failed to read data from stream Process output:
It seems some permission issue. I already executed plesk configutor and permission fix tool but the issue remains.
I try to keep on the up and up about hosting and constantly looking for a new host to provide better services, but I saw an article in TheWHIR that got me to wonder if people are making stuff up or is it just "marketing" or real?
Ok, so the article:

I hope adding a link to the article is ok?
First of all I have NEVER heard of cPanel ever offering clustered technology. Can anyone confirm or deny that this is real? I have really only used HSphere which I know has some cluster abilities and even those hosts don't advertise "clustered" services.
Then I see other so called cPanel wannabe clustered services which they call cPanel clustered failover or something like that which to me is ummm..more fault tolerant hosting than actual cluster hosting.
Basically, am I just not understanding the meaning of "cluster"?
I think cluster has to do with the proper allocation of reasources spread across the network of defined processes, though, I have been wrong in the past...
Anyone have issues where after setting up cpanel dns cluster via whm, cpanel fails often on the clustered boxes?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a 1 server setup. Right now all dns, web, and email are hosted from this single box.
We wish to bring in a server2 and have dns cluster setup, this would also host mirrors of email and web sites from server1.
What i want to know is what is the best way to setup the DNS cluster/nameservers?
would it be
ns1.domain.com pointing to server1 dns
ns2.domain.com pointing to server2 dns?
if that is the case and lets say server 2 goes down, wouldnt that mean the 50% of hits to the web site would be denied as ns2 is down? The reason i ask this is that to my understanding nameservers do not have priority, they are randomly hit.
I am trying to provide some small bit of redundacy.
when cluster server will be avalaible?
and I'm curious about the space and bandwidth of this service
I have started to move my websites over to my UK Colocation But would like a little guidence on what the best solution would be.
I would like to build up a Server Cluster that will handle all of my sites really and also have redundancy, so If 1 server goes down the other Web/SQL/Whatever server will be used instead.
I have websites ranging from large forums to streaming & download websites.
Should I got for a setup for example:
X Web Servers + X Database Servers
Connected to X Storage (see link below)
Connecting the Web Servers in something like a a round robin config or use a Load Balancer / Other
OR Should I setup multiple:
Web Server + Database Server + Media Server
OR another config?
Below are my current setups
Current UK Setup (Colocation)
Web Server
Quad Core, 8GB Ram, 250gb HDD Raid 1
Quad Core, 8GB Ram, 250gb HDD Raid 1 (just ordered)
SQL Server

i am going to use with hsphere preferently i want to use Dell blade server 1955 with exchange and sharepoint, cause the low HD capacity i will like to add and HD array could be NAS or SAN,
View 10 Replies View Relatedput together a high availability cluster for a PHP + MySQL based app to run on a LAN. We're going to use Linux, and cost is a major consern. The app itself doesn't use / need too much resources, as it will only be accessed by 2 / 3 people at a time, so I'm using the following:
2 identical PC's with:
3Ghz PIV CPU
1GB RAM
2x SATAII 160GB HDD space setup as RAID 1
10/100 Mbps LAN NIC's, on a 100MB 8 port switch
Up to now I have been running MySQL-Max 5.0.15 to run a MySQL master-master replication server, which works fine, but the setup involved a lot of manual work, and downloading of the right binaries.
Furthermore I used Linux Heartbeat todo auto switchover between the two servers & RSYNC to sync the application files between the two. This has been working fine untill one of the server's HDD's failed recently corrupting both HDD's
So, I need a better way of doing this, and want to meet the following requirements:
If 1 HDD fails on either server, the server still needs to be able to run without a problem.
Replacing a HDD & rebuilding the RAID array should be easy to manage, preferabbly over the net.
Setting up a cluster should be easy to manage, both for the MySQL DB server & the files that need to be synced between the two machines Re-installing the server should be easy todo as well.
For No.1 I have been thinking of setting up RAID 5 with 4x HDD's - how reliable / safe / redundant is this?
For No. 4 I have been thinking of using something like sysimager to backup the server once setup, but will / can it recreate the RAID array upon restoration? The MySQL DB & PHP files are being backed up to a removable HDD on a daily basis.
The client is 700Km's away, so we can't just drop-in to fix things as often as we like. Thus redundancy is of utter importance. Currently I'm running Suse 9.3, simply due to the fact that it's easy enough to tell the client over the phone howto do things with YaST. Suse 10.1 will be used for the new setup, but I could also use Fedora Core 5, and have also been thinking of using SME server 7.0.
Was thinking about running an email server for some local businesses, so they can out source their IT systems (cheaper).
Now setting up a mail server, say running DirectAdmin is normally fine.
However this is a "mission critical" service to these guys, so I want 9.9999% uptime !
I was thinking of getting a few VPS's around 384MB RAM, 20GB HDD spec in the same DC but on different nodes and setting up a cluster...
And then I thought..... How the hell do I do that..? WHT must know.....
I have 4 dedicated servers in 1and1 and i want to create a server cluster for windows media services to stabilize the server load. i tried to add the second server details in the first server's windows media services and it always says, access denied message.
how can i give permissions to create a server cluster for windows media services? i didn't installed any additional firewalls in the servers and i am using this for only Windows media services so IIS is disabled. my configuration and server details are below...
