View 4 Replies View RelatedWe are looking for a couple of servers for streaming media application and database application. We are wondering if anyone can give us some suggestions as to whether to use a used-Dell 1750 or 1850 vs. a new Taiwan-made server such as Chenbro servers?
Will a used-Dell servers better or worst than a new white-label servers? Can anyone give recommedation on which servers to use? We need something that is very reliable but we definitely can't afford something like a new IBM or Dell.
if i remember correctly, the best time to buy Dell's ware for cheap is at the end of the quarter. is this correct?
when do you purchase hardware from Dell?
I look after a Dell PE2800 server, it has a pair of 5.25 bays on the front, the top most of the two contains a Dell PowerVault 100T DAT72 tape backup drive. I have a second identical drive that i now wish to install into the bay beneath in a similar manner.
Problem is this - my colleague tell me that Dell are no longer selling the mounting brackets / rails needed to install the drive. I have had a fruitless look through the internet for a number of weeks now and hope that someone in the forum may be able to suggest a solution to the problem... anybody know a source for the brackets? Is there a parts site somewhere ive missed? Anyone happen to have what im after? Or any alternative suggestions?
I have a couple of Dell 1950s and in one of them, I have 2x Seagate 15K.5s that I purchased through Dell and I also have a spare sitting in my rack in case one goes bad, also from Dell.
I was going to be repurposing one of my other 1950s and was going to get two more 15K.5s for it, but wasn't planning on getting them through Dell (rip off?). This way, could still keep the same spare drive around in case a drive went bad in that system as well.
When I was talking to my Dell rep recently when purchasing another system, their hardware tech said you can't use non-Dell drives with Dell drives in the same RAID array because of the different firmware between them.
Anyone know if it is true? Anyone have any experience with using drives from Dell in conjunction with the same model drives from a third party retailer?
Does anyone know any good system for monitoring if a server is online?

Therefore I am looking for a server performance monitoring service. All service I found so far were simply monitoring uptime (server is down / server is up). I need something more - a service that checks every 30 seconds or so the loading time of the main page.
Then it would allow me to download the data in CSV or draw a response time graph.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm thinking of purchasing a server that will monitor about 50 different servers using Nagios. It would probably just run Apache and nothing else but i was wondering if anyone has experience setting up a Nagios server just for monitoring other boxes on a network.
I'm wondeirng if this can be done. I will be monitoring a few customer servers but would like to give those customers access to Nagios and access only to their servers and nobody elses. Is there a way to setup Nagios so certain users can view their own boxes and nobody elses? Probaby setting up some type of group configuration. What about alerts? If a customers box goes down they would need to be alerted. Does Nagios allow those users to receive alerts specific to their boxes.
Not even sure how powerful the server should be. Probably a Celery or something a bit more powerful should do.
i have servers in the UK, USA and also Netherlands and Asia

Is there anything like this or a Big VPS hosting company is using?

What do you all recommend for server monitoring software?
I'm looking into setting up a server-monitoring network: small globally distributed VPS servers all monitoring another main server (currently, just one server - but I would like it to be scalable).
When it notices it can't connect to a particular service, it should check to see if the other monitoring stations also can't connect - then a "master server" should send out an email + sms alert to the designated person for that server if all servers cannot connect.
Does such an open source piece of software exist? Or do I have to start writing my own...?
What do you guys use for server monitoring?
I have been looking to find a good solution to notify me when either of my 3 servers go down. Preferably by SMS.

But it seems to have a massive delay. from 1 hour, to 6 hours.
