Can anyone tell me the format of SCP command for transfering an 18gig TAR.GZ file from one srever to another
say im logged in to the old host via SSH and the backup is located at /home/public_html/cpbackup/blahblah.tar.gz
what command would i put down to transfer to the new 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?
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.
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.
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.

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.
Knowing Qoodaa was quite by chance.
A few days ago, my friends studying in America recommended me a new popular transfer toolQoodaa. 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 its 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'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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.

One of my sites is currently hosted on an IIS server. It has an SSL certificate that the host has setup and they've placed a .PFX file for that certificate in my root directory.
I would like to transfer that site to my new server that runs cPanel/WHM. What is the easiest way to go about doing this? Do I require the co-operation of my previous (IIS) host to do it, or can I do it on my own? And is there a simple way to do it since I have cPanel/WHM installed?

I have about 800GB of data to transfer, both servers are using DirectAdmin.
If I am able to transfer at 10mbit, how long would that take for 800GB?
I suppose I need to install rsync on both servers.

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?
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?
is there any downtime when one transfers their domain name to another registrar? If so what is the approximate downtime?
If there is a downtime, is there anyway to avoid this?

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.
