I have a server in Liquidweb with 50GB of web pages and I want to move this accounts to my servers in Europe. The problem is that speed is about 4Mbps and becomes impossible to move the accounts.
With my other servers in GNAX I have not had trouble getting speeds of 80/100Mbps.
I tried to move my server of Liquidweb to GNAX but has reached only 14Mbps.
Which is the best solution? The network liquidweb has always been very stable, but I am seeing that is really slow.
I have been through various servers but i cannot find something that works for me. I have very little bandwidth, disk space, server spec demands. All i need is a low-medium ping rate and excellent network reliabiilty. I have tried various low pings, but thats all useless when it drops a bunch of packets and disconnects the players every hour or two.
The audience is US East and Europe connecting together. Anyone have any suggestions for what a good option might be?
What company of this list would you choose to host your site:
-Verio
-Liquidweb
-Cartika
-Myriad Network
Some offer cluster hosting, some normal shared hosting, others are longtime runners in the hosting industry.
Please, have your say and tell why would you choose them, if you have had previous experience with them. Do you think you can trust them to host an important web site?
I'm on a NetDepot 10 meg unmetered and just started migrating some accounts over from The Planet. I've been with them since... well the beginning. I wanted something a little less expensive with more bang for buck.
While the uptime has been good. The network speeds have not. I'm never getting more than sustained transfer speeds (scp, rsync) from my Planet server of 400KB/s... at this rate it's going to take 6 hours to transfer an account that's just 8 gigs in size.
NIC is set to 100 meg, full duplex. Both servers have just about no activity on them and firewalls clear. 3% 323MB 378.9KB/s 6:02:15 ETA
Is anyone else finding the network speeds with NetDepot sluggish? I submitted a support ticket about this.
This makes things like remote backups impossible.. hopefully it's just a issue with an overused switch or something. The worst part is I did the full buy-down package in hopes of being with them long term, now I'm not so sure.
I noticed that there are huge pings to my server from time to time, example:
------------------ 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=0 ttl=60 time=2.93 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=1 ttl=60 time=2.70 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=2 ttl=60 time=1901 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=3 ttl=60 time=899 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=5 ttl=60 time=2.69 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=6 ttl=60 time=2.62 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=4 ttl=60 time=2132 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=8 ttl=60 time=2.57 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=7 ttl=60 time=1190 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=10 ttl=60 time=2.65 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=9 ttl=60 time=1048 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=12 ttl=60 time=2.74 ms 64 bytes from HOSTNAME (server-IP): icmp_seq=11 ttl=60 time=1205 ms ------------------
First I thought that it is network related, but most strange for me was that I did not have any packets lose.
Then I tried to ping from my server to other hosts - situation was the same - some ping were good and some were huge (700ms, 800ms, even 2000ms)
I checked: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max and it was 65536
Then I checked: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_count and it was ~1600 so normal.
I did not have such dropped information on all my other servers. Dropped counter for RX was constatnly increasing.
So I decided to restart all services on the server. After restarting network and ipaliases - problem disappeared. RX dropped counter is still rising, but I do not have any slowdowns on the server and pings are normal.
My question is - does anyone could have any idea what can casue my problem and how can I prevent this in the future?
I am copying 6 GB of data to a machine across a 100baseTX (full-duplex) link. There are no collisions on the network, yet scp and systat -ifstat are both reporting extreamily slow transfer speeds... around 400 KB/s. That cant be! What what can I do to fix this?
I'm running FreeBSD 6.2. What other stats should I be looking at to figure this out?
why I am not getting at least 9 MB / sec, let alone 12?
We've got a discounted Quad dedi box from Ecatel.net about a week ago. Their network and prices are really good, sure. But we still have problems with start up because the second hdd isn't mounted or installed properly. The support team has answers about 1-2 times per day only so this question is in progress already for days.. The helpdesk is locked somehow from todays morning (I see our account is present but there's no way to log in) and we are still waiting for replys from day-before-yesterday requests...
I wouldn't like to be some kind of sharp under any circumstances and I respect every business but this is probably too long so we have to pay now just for waiting to get a server ready with no start yet.
Does somebody work with them? Is it normal situation? We still have some boxes in Layeredtech and would like to move to European DC (these boxes are middle-ended so we need more power now). There were no such problems in LT. Never. The maximum response time to such kind of questions was 2-5 hours (15 minutes in general), maybe a bit more (for hardware setup requests), but not days and nights with no progress indicator.
Maybe that is a European DC highlight strategy to have such delays with tickets response, isn't it? Coz the European market is new for us, anyway, we've never had boxes there before but would like to.
I've got 25 domains on a Virtuozzo/Plesk8.6/CentOS5 VPS. Each domain has one up-to-date install of WordPress, most have very little traffic (average 200mb per month), maybe 2 domains get 5-7gb traffic per month.
I monitor port 80 connections and rarely see more than 10 at a time. That should in my opinion be no problem at all for a VPS with 768mb guaranteed ram and 2.4ghz cpu. I've got 30gb hard drive spare too.
But.... about 8 or 10 times a day it grinds to a complete halt: server load at 500-1000%, sites timing out, plesk takes 3mins to load, often I can't even connect with SSH, and the plesk web server, apache
80 seconds sounds like a huge amount of time for a MySQL insert to me! Does anyone know if this is likely to be the cause of my trouble? Some problem with Plesk and the database? Or could it be something else?
I will have to deploy a site into VPS (or dedicated or amazon EC2, I don't really know yet, but I thik it could be VPS).
First of all I don't know how strong server do I need. It's rails application with 800k (up to 1million) pageviews per month. Could you tell me how much traffic do you have on your VPSes? It's rails app, so I think I will need RAM at first place.
I'm in searching of an offer similar to Eurovps, someone can suggest me something of same quality? I want change from eurovps because we receive many down in this period and them dont want change my vps from managed to unmanaged, the only option to do this is to change vps when is very simple to change only the price into their system. I want use a new vps that reduce me the cost.
I'm looking for Managed VPS in Europe (for example UK, can be DE but with english website and support) or ultimately in USA (DC in east coast) with DirectAdmin panel.
I need about 10-20 GB hdd, 60-80GB transfer/month. The company should be already several years on the market...
recommendations for colocation in Europe, preferably NL or DE based?
Basic requirement:
1-5U initially, option to expand into half and full rack over time.
Reasonably priced bandwidth.
Decent remote hands when needed.
A sensible AUP would also be a requirement. I prefer a host to give you an opportunity to address any issues (such as a compromised system, copyright protected content, or similar) *before* they actually pull the plug. From what I have seen, some hosts will disable your switch port(s) almost the moment they receive a complaint - which is not acceptable.
A friend has asked me to recommend a company for a Managed VPS solution, one that must be in hosted in Europe (I suggested that he might want to look to the USA but he doesn't want to). As I really don't know too much about European VPS solutions as I mainly deal with US datacenters and companies I wanted to ask for a recommendation.
He requires a managed linux VPS solution, with a control panel that can manage files, email, databases etc, so whether its directadmin, cPanel, Plesk or whatever, it doesn't really matter.
He is looking for the following specs: 20-30GB HDD 128 or more RAM Bandwidth doesn't particularly matter as long as its not too low.
The budget is £20 or under (around $40) per month, so he's obviously looking at quite a low-end solution.
I'm currently using 1&1 Germany. Great service, but only in German and Google translator is getting to some funny translations. I've looked at 1&1 UK, but their prices are higher for slower servers with less RAM.
I don't want a server in the US.
I'd like Window 2003, or preferably 2008 with Hyper-V installed.
Im gonna run Zimbra webmail on a server, i dont really care where i host it (and i dont think a VPS will do for it), as long as its not in USA (slow for me as i live in Sweden).
Where should i host it?
Checked Leaseweb and they want 29 euro/month for a dedicated server with 512mb ram, CPU dosnt really matter as long as its atleast the same as leaseweb (sempron 3100+).
Is there any as cheap, or cheaper than that? I found many in .uk and .nl, xeneurope (only VPS?), etc..
