Migrating Domains Without Any Downtime
Apr 8, 2009
to migrate domains to another server with zero downtime. There is a panel (but its webminish) and I have full root access to everything so this will be a hands on job.
The thread I recalled seeing was about someone hosting shoutcast servers and they wanted to migrate and there was a way they did this without any downtime.
I can't remember the details but it had a way to redirect all traffic to the new machines. This would be great, as I also want to direct all traffic including mails (not just HTTP).

Ive looked for a long time now trying to find the perfect tutorial to migrate my clients (on cPanel) to my VPS without downtime. Every tutorial i found doesnt tell you how to make it so you dont have any downtime at all.
I know you can point the DNS from the old server to the new server by editing it through cpanel but i have more than 100 clients and it would be DAMN annoying to edit every single one of them one by one. Is there a faster way? Anyone have a tutorial that i can follow?

In your opinion how much downtime is too much downtime?
1, 2, 5 hours over the course of a month? 99.8%, 98%, 95% total uptime too little?
I mean I can understand technical difficulties and I am willing to be patient with my host especially when the service (when it is up) is good but where exactly do you draw the line, start asking questions, or canceling that contract and demanding your refund?

I have 2 servers on LT SAVVIS data center (through Server4Sale).
Today I received mails from them that LT is migrating out of Savvis and so my servers need to be transported/built(!) at the DataBank facility. And the server IPs will get changed.
If the servers requires a build, that will mean ill have to configure/reinstall everything again. Thats apart from moving the client accounts from the old server.
Anyone else received the notice from LT?

I am in the process (or my server manager is) of migrating my server from one provider to another. Once all the files have been migrated and everything is "set" on the new server, what do I need to do with respect to the name servers? I currently have 2 name servers NS1.Mymainwebsite.com and NS2.Mymainwebsite.com. Each registered with an IP address from my current server host. Once I migrate, do I only need to re-register the name servers under my main website with their new IPs? Or does every person with a web site domain on my server need to "re-register" the IP address of the name servers.

We are migrating all of our users from one box to another. We were planning on changing the TTL settings in DNS so the move would be a little more transparent to the users but we can't seem to find a option to change the TTL for all of the accounts on the box.
Is there an option to do this? If not, is there a better way to handle this?

I'm currently running various sites on a single server but cause the requirements are no longer satisfied by the current configuration i started renting a more powerful server in a different provider. Both servers are running CPANEL/WHM. I have migrated sites from WHM servers before but the problem i had was having to update all domains to point to the dns servers of the new server - which is harder than it sounds when the sites (and domains) belong to clients. Is is possible to move to the new server without having to update the domain registrars?

Anyone know the correct way to do this? I've been on here looking at a few threads and on lxlabs forum but my solution can't be resolved. I'm sure its something easy.
Here goes,
I'm migrating from an lxadmin VPS to another lxadmin VPS.
The problem I have is that my IP's for the HOME>DNS TEMPLATE and HOME>IP ADDRESSES are the same as my old VPS.
Now I can change the IP in the DNS template, however under HOME>DNS TEMPLAES>CREATE NEW it doesn't have my NEW VPS IP's listed in the drop-down menu. I read somewhere in an LxAdmin tutorial to update LxAdmin to get your current IP's assoicated with your new VPS. I did this and nothing changed.
In addition to the DNS Templates not being correct, In HOME>IP ADDRESSES it also lists the same OLD VPS IP's. Saw a thread in LxLabs forum with someone that had the same problem. Their help stated to just change the IP ADDRESS to your new one. I would do that but there is no option to allow me to ADD a new IP. Again i'm in HOME>IP ADDRESSES here.

Basically I have one website hosted (add-on domain) on a shared server. Now this domain has to moved to another server on its own. I have no doubt backing up the database from the current server and restoring it but is there an easy way to move the website, mailbox contents? Both servers are cPanel plans, I would just use copy account in WHM if it was not an add-on domain.

am moving to a new VPS (replacement) and know there's some way to copy over the list of packages to the new server. the whm migrate tool does not copy the actual packages. i recall somewhere on these forums where a user had mentioned some file that could be transferred to the new server which contains all the package data?

I'm running into some troubles moving my Webalizer installation. I want to keep all my stats, so what I did was to copy all the files to my new host, checked permissions as well.
Each website outputs their logs to a separate log file, and that log file is pointed to in the respective webalizer.conf.
My problem is that when I try to run webalizer -c /path to conf file/ it tells me that it found x new records (good!), but then it ignores all of them. Every single time it'll tell me it found so and so many records, and says, "(number of new records) ignored".
So I'm not sure what I've missed in the config, and why it can't update.

Moved to them recently from Wiredtree as my clients were asking for a uk-based server. I am a small time host, mainly to friends and family.
I've had more downtime in a week with VPS Ville than I ever had with Wiredtree.

Recently our provider has been having unplanned long outages (along with a complete server move that took several hours). This has turned out uptime statistic from exemplary to mediocre (100% to <99%).
As we are a hosting company and normally have an extremely good amount of uptime, when is it time to give up on the provider? I am extremely concerned this will become regular and our uptime will simply continue to go down the drain, however, they have been good and have been the main attribution to our 100% uptime (along with our great technicians and hardware).

I am the webmaster for a high level court system. We run mainly .php and MySQL like most do. We are in the process of doing a transfer to 1 and 1. I want to be able to test everything (database wise) before I do the transfer. I thought the best way to do so would be to purchase another DNS name and server and transfer everything there first to test and then when that is fully operational have a redirect to there and do the DNS name transfer from the old site to 1 and 1, and when the DNS name is on 1 and 1 take the redirect off . I don’t want any downtime at all.
This might not be the most cost effective but for downtime I thought it would be the best way, especially when I can have a live test before the transfer.

I have many domains and webservers. so it's hard to monitor everything usually. i heard there are some websites and softwares to do this.
does windows 2003 have anything default like this ? or can anyone suggest the application for my windows 2003 server? which sends alerts if any error is going on my server?
Also there any other websites which is doing this monitoring? because i have some shared accounts and i want to monitor it too.

I'm having a bit of a quabble with my current host because our server was unreachable for an extended period yesterday, and since I made a traceroute that arrived at their datacenter but not at our server, I was assuming it's a crystal clear network issue.
Today however they tell me that a traceroute means nothing. To quote them:
Quote:
Please note that having a traceroute end prematurely does not always indicate a problem with the network it ends at. Being that traffic is typically asynchronous, the return path back to you does not follow the same providers. Your traceroute can not fully take into account network connectivity issues on the return path nor will it show them. You would need a traceroute to and from the server at the time of the issue (while this may be impossible if the server is down, opening a ticket immediately and informing the technician you would like a traceroute to X.X.X.X IP would hopefully catch the return path issue).
What do I make of this? First time I've heard that, when the network is down, I need to contact my host to tell me. But without any polemic - is this what it boils down to?

It is probably acceptable for a site on shared hosting to have some downtime. However, how much is acceptable?
According to Pingdom one of my sites had a total downtime of 14 hrs for Feb. One time it was reportedly down for 4 hrs.
I had set it up to ping every 15 mts. Are these results trustworthy? And if it is should I move my host? Or at least tell them to move my site to another server?
The reason I ask is because I was wondering if this was the norm for shared hosting.

Probably been asked a million times but after spending 30 min searching since the limit is 130 seconds between searches... Anyway, i am VERY unhappy with ModVPS as my server keeps going on and off and on and off and they tell me its "fixed" but it keeps doing it to all of my staff even... anyway enough of that
I purchased a really nice dedicated server and need to know how to migrate all accounts over without having any downtime and allowing people to still use their website as normal. I have about 60 clients and would hate to see one of them upset because their data was lost during propagation when they connected to the old server instead of the new, exc.
Is the best method to setup a cluster through cpanel? Or is there a better way?

I have a server that used to be with Hostgator. There is a hundred accounts and the average load is 0.5. It has 2 gigs of RAM, a Dual-Core Pentium D and 2x Sata HDDs in Raid-1. At one point it started being very often (at least once a day) down. It would be all of the sudden down. I used to monitor it, with 0.2 load average, and all of the sudden, the connection is lost, I can't access the web sites, etc... Fed up, after several weeks pressuring over Hostgator, I cancelled the server, I contracted the same configuration at Softlayer and contracted TouchSupport to manage the new server. They migrated the hundred web sites to the new server... Exact same problem. Every single day, any time of the day the server is down. There's no specific time. And right before it's down, load average is below 1. From the logs, there's nothing unusual. Softlayer changed the CPU and RAM just to make sure. Same problem. It's been a month like this, and I just don't know what to do at this point. Moving to yet another company doesn't seem to be a solution I think. If it were a DoS, load average would be very high before going down, but it's always very low right before. Do you know what may be causing it?
