Transferring Large Amounts Of Data From Server To Server
Recently I changed server providers, so now I'm looking for a way to transfer all the data to my new server. I have a total of 420GBs of files in my secondary HDD that need to be transferred. The old server is at a 10Mbps line, the new one is at a 100Mbps one. From old server, less than half the pipe is being actively used. So theoretically, I should be able to transfer it all in about a week. I tried 1) SCP. That was waaay too unreliable. And I couldn't get it to restart from the point left on whenever the transfer stopped (like when the servers were restarted). 2) Transfer using a web script. Way too slow, got to about 35GBs, total would take like 2 months. Is there any other, reliable way of transferring data from server to server?

Large File Sizes
My client's website needs to hold files that are around 60 or 70 MB. The host only allows files up to 10 MB. Is that typical? Right now I'm linking to a file storage but would rather make the files available from my site without going to a 3rd Party Site. He doesn't want to zip his files either - just to be a straight download.

How To Transfer A Large File
I have a situation here. I wanted to transfer a file (about 10GB) from one server to another server. Both server are on the same LAN. Inside server1, I zipped a folder as file.tar.gz From server2, I uses wget http://server1.com/file.tar.gz and it says "404 Not Found" I suspect it won't allow me to download because the file is too big.

Optimize Lighttpd For Large File
So I've recently ordered a Supermicro 4U server with 24x1TB HDs, 64GB RAM and put it in RAID 10. I'm running Debian 5.0 and have installed lighttpd. All the content I serve are video files (AVi, MP4, MKV, OGM) and each file is about 100-500mb in size. I'm wondering how can I optimize lighttpd to get the best performance out of it. I look forward to your replies.

Hosting Setup - Large Amount Of File Storage
on good hosting setups for getting large amounts of disk space. I would like to be able to offer up to 2Gb storage space for 100s, maybe up to a few 1000 users - any solution should scale well. The files would be static files that might be up to 400Mb in size. It would be nice to be able to give users FTP access to their disk space, although it's not a core requirement.

Share A Good Transnational Software For Large File Transfer
Knowing Qoodaa was quite by chance. A few days ago, my friends studying in America recommended me a new popular transfer tool—Qoodaa. And he told me that it was a quite good software to download files and movies. At first,I was skeptical, but after using it, I found it’s a good choice to choose Qoodaa. And I have summarized the some features of Qoodaa: 1.Its speed is faster than any other softwares I used before to upload movies. 2.It can download files quickly through downloading links, in a word, it is time-saver and with high efficiency. 3.No limit of space.No matter where you are, it can download fast. 4. Qoodaa is a green software with high security and easy use. It really can give you unexpected surprise. I am a person who would like to share with others, and if you have sth good pls share with me

Moving Large File Storage, Upload/download To Amazon S3
I'm currently running on a VPS. My site allows for large file uploads and downloads, with files over 600mb in size. The server has issues when the site gets three or more requests for large file downloads. I'm trying to grow this site to thousands of users and it is hard to do when the site can't handle even three. I've been told by my host that I need to upgrade to dedicated. My VPS only has 512mb RAM and one large file download is eating up that RAM. This is causing the issue. I'm a newbie and while I knew I was risking a bit by going with VPS I do find it a bit annoying that these guys advertise 1TB of bandwidth per month but I can't even support downloading 1GB at the same time....maybe it's just me... Anyway, I am now looking into moving the large files and the upload/download over to Amazon S3. If I do this I am expecting my RAM usage on the VPS to greatly decrease. Is this correct? If my PHP code is running on the VPS, but the actual file download via HTTP is coming from S3, that should not be a heavy load on my box, correct? any opinions on S3?

Understanding Scp
I want to use scp to backup files, however I find most tutorials confusing as to which computer is the remote and the local. Is the local the one you are logged into via ssh command, or the computer from which you logged into ssh. Lets say I am on my Windows computer. I open up putty, and login to the ssh connection of a remote linux computer. What scp command do I enter into the ssh terminal to copy a file from D:ackup of the windows computer to /home/backup of the linux computer?

Scp Sync Between Servers
I have wrote a shell script that uses public keys to sync data between some servers, the problem is that moving about 20 GB from one server to another, is consuming too much CPU, about 80%. Is this normal? Should I use nice -n +number scp -p bla bla bla.. as syntax to try to get a lower cpu usage? I'm using RHEL 5.3 on both boxes.

High Load Average While Using SCP
I have to move about 50 GB each night from one server to another. This is the command I'm using: Code: /bin/nice -n +19 scp -c blowfish -l 18000 -P 22222 root@XX.XX.XX.XX:/backup/dailybacks/*.tar.gz ./ There is no private lan so i have to use internet. I'm using blowfish, which will reduce cpu load, and also limiting bandwidth transfer, usign -l 18000. How ever, I still do see some high load averages.. Do you have any other suggestion to optimize CPU performance while running scp?

Scp VERY Slow Network Preformance
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?

Struggling To Setup SCP Between To VPS's With SSH Keys
I had previously had this working. However, I changed the second VPS and now I can't remember how I set it up. I will call it SourceVPS and BackupVPS. I am trying to setup SSH keys to allow me to SCP backups from the sourceVPS to the backupVPS. The SCP command I am trying to run on the SourceVPS is: Code: scp -i /root/.ssh/VPS_root_access_key -pr /root/movetest.txt root@server.BackupVPS.com:/backup/ Previously, I had the SSH keys between the SourceVPS and BackupVPS so the above command would move a file from one to the other (instead of movetest.txt, that is normally the name of the backup file being moved). Can someone walk me through the steps for setting up the SSH keys? I am on Cpanel/WHM and Centos 4.6

Transferring Sites
I am having some issues here. I had a reseller account and decided to go to a dedicated box. My question is, what would be the easiest way to transfer all the account over. I do not have root access on the resellers account so it is making it kind of difficult. I did some research and found a way I think you can do but please correct me if I am wrong. Can it be done by going under my dedicated roots access and clicking on the "transfer an account from another server using password"? Also, Would I have to wait until all files are transfered to set my custom nameservers IP addy.

Transferring Domains With Nameservers
I currently have a domain at Network Solutions and I am going to transfer that domain to Godaddy. I also have 2 nameservers that I am running associated with that domain (ns1.mydomain.com & ns2.mydomain.com) that are also registered with Network Solutions. My question is what happens to those nameservers when the transfer takes place? Will Network Solutions remove them from their database at that time? My concern is when the transfer happens there will be no nameservers registered at Godaddy and my sites will be down. Anyone know how that works?

Transferring Hosting Plus New Site
I have agreed to update website A (with url A) on host A. Both are rubbish. I would like to build the new site with host B for various reasons (essentially I want / need more than one 50Mb database). If I build the new site B on host B under a temporary URL, I'll then need to transfer the domain from host A to host B. So my questions are: How easy is it to transfer url A to host B and to point to site B? What will happen to the approx. 70 email addresses on host A? Will I have to manually recreate them at host B and any emails stored on the server will be lost?

Transferring Site To New Server
I have read another recently created thread about their woes but this is a separate issue so I figured it deserved a separate thread. Here is my problem. I am transferring my site, osrec.com from my old server to Hostgator. The old server is quite primitive and I am using this piece of crap: Matrix Hosting Appliance Control Panel v2.0-33 I have hardly any control or options. I am using Joomla 1.5....but my concern is that the MYSQL database will not be compatible. I am also concerned about downtime...What if they transfer and it isn't compatible, am I then stuck with a site that won't function properly. Is there a way of transferring it to another domain hosted with Hostgator first? Has anyone transferred a Joomla site over to Hostgator? have you any advice? I know, a lot of questions and not really structured. Fact is, I have never experienced this before and so this is my first time facing it. I'd contact Hostgator, but....ya know...their technical support is useless.

Transferring Hosting Accounts Between Control Panels
I just want to provide what it takes to change hosting company or moving from one to another. Here is 10 steps how you can do it. Please correct me if I forgot something or I am totally wrong (wing-wong) 1.Identify a web hosting company that provides the features and services most suitable for you. 2.Order an appropriate hosting package from the supplier. 3.Use the Control Panel facilities to manage your email boxes and such like. 4.Begin the transfer of your domain or change the domain records and change email settings if required (your new web hosting supplier should provide guidance and support to make this as simple as possible). 5.Copy all your files from your previous web hosting service. 6.Upload the files to your new hosted web space. 7.Transfer any databases required for your website. 8.Check that all files have been copied and uploaded successfully. 9.Test functionality and content related to any databases. 10.If you have not done so already, cancel your previous hosting service. By the way I think that the most biggest problem is to know how to get moving from one to another hosting that’s why people always thinks that they will stick to one hosting company and forget all major problems with that company (downtimes, long servers maintenance and etc.)… I am trying to analyze cPanel, DirectAdmin and Plesk and will provide all (as much as I can) information regarding how to transfer your website.

Transferring A Site To Site5 - Any Other Host Recs
I'm trying to transfer a site(that I did not create) that is written in PHP4 and uses global variables from MediaTemple as we have been having extremely slow performance over the last 6 months. The site is database drive and uses an SSL certificate with PayQuake to handle membership. We tried MediaLayer but had too many problems. Then I placed a copy of my own test site on Site5 and it all worked great. So, we created a new account and are trying to move the code over there. Basically, I have functions (accordion menus) and a search function (the form isn't passing the field to the action URL) that are not working. Site5 isn't being very helpful. I'm getting extremely frustrated. And yes, I know I should get rid of the globals but it's a complicated site and we want to get it moved before we start messing with the code. Is there a webhosting company out there that is helpful in getting these kinds of weird issues straightened out? Or do I just need to slog through? I'm a programmer (ASP, .NET, Java, PHP) but my weakness is in configuration of servers - the whole hardware/network side of things so I'm not great with the intricacies of web server hosting.
