Justedge.net, VERY Long Response Times On Reboots
Apr 4, 2009
I have had a node with Justedge since July last year, they seem great for the most part, until things go wrong and you need their help.
Here are their responses to reboot tickets which I have sent in, all critical, all with things like "Reboot Needed" "Server reboot" "Server down" as the headers, all with either "Emergency" or "Critical" as the priority.
Here are the response times, when I sent in the ticket and got the first reply. I thought it might of been an isolated incident at first that they took a while to respond to an urgent ticket like this but it has seemed to not be the case.
Ticket submitted -24 Jul 2008 06:40 AM
Response - 24 Jul 2008 09:12 AM (Took 2hrs 31 minutes for a response)
Ticket submitted - 09 Jan 2009 02:46 AM
Response - 09 Jan 2009 10:50 AM (Took 8hrs 4 minutes for a response)
Ticket submitted - 10 Jan 2009 04:13 PM
Response - 10 Jan 2009 04:18 PM (Score, actually a quick one)
Ticket submitted - 10 Jan 2009 04:43 AM
Response - 10 Jan 2009 09:03 AM (Took 4 hrs 20 minutes for a response)
Ticket submitted - 03 Apr 2009 07:04 PM
Response - 04 Apr 2009 11:06 AM (Took 16 hrs 2 minutes for a response, luckily the server started working again in this time, aparently there were small power issues with something, although no detailed reason actually given)

About the middle of the month I started to get SMTP service down messages from a service monitor site I had signed up with. Initially I wasn't concerned but I started to get at least one notice a day. I decided to monitor the server a bit more closely so I setup a virtual appliance on my home server to monitor SMTP response times a bit more frequently -- I let the monitoring application run for a few days to gather data and noticed an unusual trend.
SMTP response times would spike dramatically during business hours -- up to almost 19 seconds at some times. However after business hours and on the weekends response times would return to normal.
My mail volume is really low for my VPS so I don't think it is the problem -- I even ran a mail stress test and pushed close to 500 messages through in 30 minutes (more than I normally get in a day) and I didn't see any SMTP response time spikes. I have also set up monitors to watch some other sites I have running on shared servers with other providers and do not see any unusual SMTP response issues with them at all.

Has anyone else noticed the support responses from knownhost are taking longer and have less detail and not actually solving the problem on the first email? The service has been great so far but I find they are no longer going the extra mile in their responses?

I've had a server for over a year now, performance used to be great and support was close to instant.
They don't offer any kind of control panel or bandwidth graphs/usage, but this wasn't much of a problem since there were no issues.
Suddenly, everything went horrible within an instant.
1st of September:
My server's networking kept going down for 15 minutes every few hours (84% packetloss), a traceroute showed it was a problem at their router.
I filed a ticket and got a reply saying 'I'll have someone look into this now.'
3rd of September:
I got no reply besides that one, so I filed another ticket.
5th of September:
2 days later they replied with 'I will check on this momentarily.'
7th of September:
Again no reply besides that one, and today another one: 'I will follow up with an engineer later today for you.'
After a few hours: 'Can i reboot your server?' (I replied instantly giving them approval).
Again after a few hours: 'OK, I will be working tonight to keep an eye on your server throughout and so I can pinpoint something right as it happens.'
Exactly 2 hours after that last reply, I replied 'It's down right now'.
And now, 5 hours after that I still haven't received a response
But there is more...
All they did in those 7 days was:
Code:
fsck -y
umount -a
shutdown -r now
umount -a
fsck -y
mount -a
mount
mount -o,remount rw
mount -o remount,re
mount -o remount,rw
mount -o remount,rw /
mount
cd /scripts
cd /
ls
cd
ls
w
who
exit
Their site mentions 'Our support department is opened 24/7 by ticket system or phone.'.
While I'm typing this, I'm still on hold after 40 minutes of waiting with a massive phone bill as a result.
I am desparate..
I have little options, an IP change will upset even more customers (I already lost several due to this downtime) and their support is simply impossible to contact.
Several of there engineers have an account here at webhostingtalk which show they are online every single day, so my ticket is simply being ignored.
Their BBBOnline program has expired too:
Code:
# Non-payment of the annual BBBOnLine license fee or BBB Accreditation dues;
# Failure by the business to maintain its BBB Accreditation, or abide by the program standards or dispute resolution requirements of the BBBOnLine program

Sentris/JustEdge - 7/5 Month Reviews - Great time with them so far!
About half a year ago, I got my first server with Sentris.com, after hearing some scetchy reviews I was worried about going with them - but I thought I would give them a try.
7 months later and now having a few servers with them they have provided a fantastic server to me to run ClanDrive.com's shared/other services off.
They have always been quick to fix any problems on their side of things which I could not handle, they provide an excellent bang-for-a-buck.
When I first signed up on my first server with them, just a few problems but they were resolved quickly. The server was in stock so I did not experience their fantastic setup times (usually within the same day), so the next day I had the server setup for me and an appology for the wait. There was also a cPanel licensing problem but they also sorted that for me in the same day.
Other than that, it has been a grand experience, they have provided an excellent service on my servers and support, now getting 30 minute replies from them which I consider good compared to old experiences.
They've forwarded any tos violations or phishing reports to me of any of my clients, allowing me to deal with it myself, understanding that I am running a webhosting company.
They've given me a good basis for ClanDrive, proud for them to be my provider.
-----
Justedge, another fantastic service providing some high quality bandwidth for me, some higher bandwidth usage plans for me.
I use Justedge for higher-spec plans and some VPS accounts.
Just one problem, on setup time, was due to a fault motherboard causing some serious errors but they replaced it within a day, also saving my data + configuration too, so no need to start over.
They've responded to my support queries slower than Sentris but its acceptable, they provide a good service for their money, always helpful and help me resolve my problems.
Have helped with sorting out e-mailing problems and have been helpful on spam issues.
-----
I'd recommend companies to anyone who is wanting a good service, with good uptime, hardware and staff. They've provided a great experience to me with multiple servers each.

I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 Server and during this week I had 2/3 unexpected reboots.
It seems like /var/log/messages is emptied after the reboot, so I don't know how to find out information before the reboot. At first I though of power outage, but I do have an UPS and the other servers were OK.
It seems that it happens always near the same time! I check the crontabs, I don't have any crontab near these times.
I check also the $last log, no one reboot the machine.
How can I find out what is happening? Might be any Kernel Panic error?

I have a server with several sites hosted on it. Randomly, a site user will find that they can no longer connect to any of the sites on the server - but they can connect to the rest of the Internet. When this happens, the sites themselves are fine and everyone else can connect without any problems.
The only way the affected user can view sites on the server again is to reboot their router - at which point everything is fine.
why this would happen? I have a CentOS (Red Hat Enterprise) Linux server with DirectAdmin, Apache, PHP/MySQL - the usual. I'm thinking that there must be some kind of network setting which is allowing this to happen, but I can't for the life of me work out what it is.

Signed up and paid the first month for a 'Linux Entry' + 1 GB mySQL around 4:45PM today. It's now 11:21PM and I have not heard anything or received any Emails for remote access. Does it usually take this long?
Reading thru this site they seemed to be one of the best if your on a $30/month budget.
Maybe setting up the Linux stuff takes longer for them than Windows?

How long does it normally take to get a shared account setup with a hosting provider? I am now in my 5th day and still have not had the account setup. I have made my DNS changes and I just keep getting email responses that it is coming. Should I be worried or is a week the normal response time in a shared environment?

I recently read around here and people had their VPS setup within 5 minutes in some cases. I've ordered a VPS from VirPus and I'm not sure how long it usually takes to setup. I'm nearing the 24 hour mark so I'm not sure. How long on average is an acceptable waiting time? or how long would you say it should take?

Had a problem whereby the best solution was to ask support to restore my VPS from the Virtuozo backup.
It has now been 2 days and no idea when it will complete.
Seems excessive, or something wrong, but support just say "It is not uncommon for restores to take this long with the backup software we are using".
Just wondering, have any of you ever needed to ask support to restore from backup, and how long did it take?
The amount of data is approx 30GB.

I have a server running SUSE. dual quad core chips, 16 gigs of RAM.
It's a webserver only running Apache.
We have been having a problem the past few days where page loads take forever yet CPU load and RAM load are very, very low.
I've noticed when it happens when viewing HTOP that TASKS jump from about 350 average to 1000 average. Pages won't start loading until this number drops.
I see no errors in error_log or messages however restarting Apache seems to fix the issue?
I've tried messing around with KEEPALIVE settings with no help.
Any clues on where to start? Pretty lost on this one becuase I see no errors and the load both CPU and RAM are low.

I have just come here to see if anyone else has experienced long setup times with the NY NOC?
It has been 4.5 days now and still no welcome email.
I emailed sales asking for an ETA and they just said due to the public holiday your server will be setup tomorrow (that was 2 days ago)
I emailed sales again and got no reply. NOCANDY replied on here saying yes things got delayed your server will be up shortly. (that was yesterday)
I have asked for a full refund lets see what happens

my question. We host around 40 websites that have hundreds of pictures. I have 60gigs dedicated to pictures alone. since we are getting more clients I want to get a bigger hard drive just for the pictures. Since my boss is obssesed with user access times, as in users accessing the pictures on the web on their end, he thinks getting a bigger hard drive will slow down the server and hence slow down access time serving out the pictures to end users. I guess what I'm saying is does a bigger hard drive slow down a website?
Let me know if you need clarification I wasn't sure how to word this.

I signed up with namecheap.com for RapidSSL. I had my hosting provider generate a CSR for me and I put it in namecheap. Then I receive an email from namecheap that says:
==========
Thank you for your RapidSSL order.
Supplier Order Id: ######
An email will be sent to the designated approver with instructions on how to approve your certificate request for xxx.domain.com.
==========
This was sent about two hours ago. I need this SSL fast as it is the backbone of my website. Namecheap doesn't have phone support and RapidSSL is closed on weekends. Any insight on when I'll get instructions to move onto the next step?
