plesk or cpanel?
which consumes lesser RAM ?
and more fragile and load faster?
I know both use heavier load than other control panels available but which of them are the better when it comes to load speed and RAM consumption?
I need to know what happens when a rack has capped its (lets say) 5A limit. I'm trying to calculate what exactly I can put into a rack and am considering that not all servers are going to be 100% load, as that would be bad performance anyway.
I guess it could do the following (but really don't know):
Cap performance of all servers
Cause system failures
Trip
The rack would have servers, a switch and perhaps a Remote Power Strip and Firewall. I don't know how they would be affected.
I was thinking about changing one of my servers to the desktop centos version instead of pure ssh access. how much added resources will this use?
View 6 Replies View RelatedWould it be bad to run only 24 hard drives on a 900 watt redundant PSU setup provided in a super micro machine? No motherboard, just the hard drives and backplane? I know that if PSU's aren't loaded enough, they can malfunction or shutdown, as well as encounter efficiency issues. Is there a general rule of thumb for this sort of thing? Should I see if supermicro can give me a lower rated PSU or something? I searched around on the net a bit but couldn't find anything solid for this particular question..
View 8 Replies View RelatedI maybe interested in co-locating a server but looking from the power max for a 1U server of around 0.3Amps I'm wondering if it will be easy.
Doing the equation 0.3 * 240 gives me 72watts I believe. (Where 240 is the voltage for the UK). So with this, it doesn't give me much choice considering most processors run around 90watts and that doesn't leave any room for the power from hard drives and memory. Does anyone know what the average power consumption is for hard drives and memory?
I'm not looking for a really power system, but I would like something that if I pull it out of co-location that I can still use it one way or another. So was looking at an AMD Athlon 64 X2 where there is a 34watt version that is seemingly discontinued. Or use an AMD Turion X2, which are again hard to find, with a mini-itx board. Running with the mini-itx board, there is also the Intel Core 2 Duo which I can get quite easily.
Does anyone else co-locate and how to you manage the specification?
I've been having a problem with my webhost (in a shared server), and I don't know if this should be a usual problem or if it is my fault or if it is the host's fault.
The thing is I am getting lots of consecutive petitions for the same files from an IP at a time, which in my logs gets registered like this:

The thing is I am getting too much bandwidth consumption, and since I've only been with this host for 3 months now, and I never had similar problems before, I was wondering if this problem is something I can do something about? Or is it the host's config?
Why do these repeat 206 petitions happen?
my friend has an un-managed VPS plan in kloxo-hypervm mode
yesterday the stats showed in hypervm as the space was over used, so I personally deleted the processed stats which cleared around 20gb space, again today the space is totally consumed, I don't know why its happening and have no clue where are the other locations where the space could have been consumed i.e similar to location of logs or any other specs which could have been consuming space
unknown space consumption - very high no idea how!
its actually an image hosting site and I noted that not many pics and not much space was consumed in the pics uploaded in the last 24hrs but this really puzzles and troubles me as I am currently tracking my friend's VPS, please help me sort this out problem and keep my head high before my friend
My nearest major city is Manchester, so naturally I'm looking for rackspace in the region.
Unless anyone has better suggestions, I'm thinking of going with NorthernColo. They start at £50/month but jump to £70/month if you draw more than 1A of current.
If my basic physics is anything to go by, 0.5A at our 240V means a maximum server power rating of 120 watts.
...are there any dual-core / 2GB RAM box configurations which consume less than 300W thesedays? My own USB mouse for my laptop consumes 50mA.
Otherwise I'm begining to think of their 0.5A pricing as being a bit of a scam, since the 1A price also pays for 2U worth of space.
how to go about spec'ing the power consumption of a server. below are the specs of the two servers I'm interested it.
Dual Xenon 2.8Ghz Processors with 2MB cache
1 250Gig SATA Hard Drives
1 500Gig SATA Hard Drive
4 Gigs of Ram
------
Dual Xenon Quad Core 2.66Ghz
1 80Gig Hard Drive
2 320Gig Hard Drives
1 1T Hard Drive
8 Gigs of RAM

Can anyone share some experiences on this? I'm new to VPS so it's not clear how much RAM cPanel will consume comparing with Webmin after everything is configured for production?
View 10 Replies View RelatedIf I were to build a 2.4 core 2 duo w/ 2gb ram and 4 x 500gb sata and 2 x 160 sata, both in raids. Do you guys think that would be above 2 amps usage? I was thinking maybe the efficient cpu would make up for the large amount of hard drives, all though their IO activity won't be that high. Maybe if someone has a similar setup they could shed me some light .
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a 256 MB VPS. Currently I run BIND to serve a few zones as the primary server and twenty more as the secondary. BIND’s memory footprint is >40 MB which is too much for such low usage. I want to replace BIND with other software to free some memory. Could you please tell me what DNS server has the least memory usage while supporting AXFR? No recursion needed.
What I’ve tried was djbdns. Its zone file format is terrible but perhaps a Web interface such as VegaDNS can help, and TinyDNS does use much less memory than BIND. What else is there?
you are going to purchase a new rack and the data center offers you a specific amount of power.
you are going to use server's specs like this
Dell PE 1950 III
two processors intel xeon E5410 2.33 GHZ , 24 MB cache, 1333MHz FSB
2x250 sata HDD
8 GB RAM
My question is how many amp's need for one server?
or how much power does one dell PE 1950 III with the previous specs needs?
I'm building a storage server out of spare parts that are lying around here at the office. Purchasing a brandnew server kinda overshoots it's target, since all basic hardware is available lika a big Chieftec 4U casing with 2x 4drive SATA hotswap bays.
The machine will just be dumb storage for saving our backups.
The plan is to add a decent serverboard, proc and some ram as a baseline. On top of that a 3ware 8-port RAID-controller with 8 1TB harddrives (seagate has some nice ones).
Now the only issue i'm having is powerconsumption. The case has an 460W PSU, but I'm not sure if that's enough.
What are the best ways to reduce server power consumption?
I have a Dell Poweredge 860 (2.4ghz QC, 5GB RAM, 2 HDs) and it uses 0.46AMPs when running normally. The problem is at boot up it spikes for a few seconds here and there to about 0.6 and this is a real problem as I only have a 0.5AMP allowance.
Should I underclock it? Remove the CD Drive?

Could anyone explain me whats actually the problem of high system usage?
I own a dedicated server and have 3 cpanel for each of my 3 sites in my WHM, I was wondering how much resource would each cpanel account use?
Reason I'm asking is because I have a couple of other sites i'd like to add to this server but I'm not sure if I should simply add them as domain add-on's in one of my current cpanel accounts or if it's ok to create another for each site without using up my server's resources.
Hope that makes sense.
I own a couple of servers xeon setups. All use cPanel/WHM.
A client yesterday asked if we could have ffmpeg-php installed on the server so that they could run phpfox.
I have heared ffmpeg is resource intensive? Will it make a big difference on dual core server? Should I install ffmpeg-php or risk losing a client?
If I should install ffmpeg-php I have been having trouble doing so, can anyone help me with this.
I am running a youtube clone on a VPS with 512mb ram at Lunarpages.
Whenever I log into Plesk, I find that my system usage is extremely high. 90%++ even up to 100%. However my CPU usage is often less than 5%.
This problem often occurs when there is slightly more visitors on my site. I am talking about only 30++ visitors and this problem will occur and my site slows to a crawl and I have to restart the VPS.
The script or the server?
I am wondering if simultaneous downloads could take up a lot of CPU/Ram usage? Could a celeron server with 512MB handle simultaneous downloads and how many users can it support simultaneously? The server will be serving as a pure download, no database, no php, no cgi, no nothing. And what is the highest mbps this server could potentially reach?

I've been running website for several years, however, there's one thing that I've never quite figured, most likely because I haven't gone over to dedicated/vps yet.
How much memory would a static 10kb HTML use or for that matter a PHP page (static)?
I know it's quite a broad question, but I'm asking this as I might start a project and this one page may receive many hits. Oh and, would the memory usage go up if I have embedded objects from an outside source (e.g. embedded Youtube videos)?
I have seen posts that some hosts suspend a user after they so many seconds of high server resource usage... I was wondering how this is done so that I can do this on my dedicated server.
