Setup Name Servers

Nov 23, 2007

I know this is kids stuff to you guys but i wanna verify how to that correctly.

I have a dedicated server with cpanel. So i setup nameservers there. like ns1.ABC.com and ns2.ABC.com

So now i wanna host ABC.com in that server. My registrar is Godaddy.

So how to setup at godaddy? can anyone guide me.

Is it like make hosts like ns1 and ns2 and put the IPs from the server in the fileds?

Then i have to put the nameservers fileds also ns1.abc.com and ns2.abc.com too. Or just making ns1 and ns2 hosts enough?

Web/Database Servers Setup

Jul 9, 2008

We are currently looking into getting a new setup to serve our online store, and I would be thankful for feedback as to which servers to choose.

Today almost the entire store is on a single three year old dual proc/dual core server (4 gb ram, RAID5) that is beginning to get overloaded. (There is also a simpler secondary server that serves some static content and does some cron jobs.)

The system is a in-house developed LAMP (where the P is mod_perl/Mason). The database is rather large, two tables with 2-6 million rows are hit multiple times on most public pages - these grow with ~10% per year. Several other often-used tables are in the few-hundred thousand to a million rows, also continuously growing.

We anticipate rapid sales/visit growth over the next couple of years (a good day today is 6000-8000 visits), so I'm thinking of separating the database and web server. The most likely hosting candidate right now is Softlayer's WDC data center (we are located in Europe).

With that background, does this sound like an adequate setup:

Database server
Dual Xeon 5430 - 2.66GHz
8GB ram
RAIDed 3x73GB (or possibly 147GB) (15k rpm). I'm thinking RAID1? The big tables are not written to too much during the day, so read performance is more important than writing.
Web server

This (these) would be serving the Apache/mod_perl part of the system. Some static content (images and some PDFs) unless we put them on a separate server (all static content are placed in a single folder so it would be easy to do a mod_rewrite to an image server).
Dual Xeon 5050 or 7320
4GB ram
2x73GB (SCSI 10k rpm) RAID1

I don't think we need to load balance between two web servers from the beginning but that is something we will keep in mind (and hopefully have to do at some point). Are the two configurations sane (or is one overkill compared to the other)? Generally, how many web servers can a single database server serve? Email is handled separately (Google Apps). I estimate our budget to not more than $1000-1500 a month (if we go with Softlayer we will most likely use some other services such as firewalls, SAN and so on).

We currently use Suse, I have previously used RedHat on personal servers at ThePlanet. Is RedHat 4 32-bit a sensible choice? I have some experience with CPanel so we would most likely use that.

Building New Servers - Drive Setup

Oct 4, 2009

We're building a bunch of new servers (as I mentioned in another thread). What do you guys think is the best drive layout? Traditionally we just have the entire 4-6 drives in a RAID 5, but now I'm wondering if it makes sense to have a separate OS drive, and then the rest in a raid 5?

On a side note, we need a giant ~2TB-3TB partition on these boxes, that's why we go with the multi-drive raid setup. Thoughts? I know it was customary to have a separate OS drive back in the day (I remember having WD raptor's for that), but now when the WD Black-edition (which we'll be using for the raid setup) are as fast as the raptor's, is it even worth it?

How Do I Setup A Site On 2 Servers. 1 For Mysql 1 For Web

Jul 7, 2009

How do I setup a site to use two servers? One as a mysql server and the other as a web server.

At the moment I have the site on one server. When I get the second server what steps do I need to take to make this possible?

How do I secure the mysql server to only allow the web server to connect to it?

Do I need a control panel (i.e. cPanel) software on the mysql server?

Setup- Multiple Servers Or 1 Powerful One

Sep 21, 2007

some setup recommendations as I feel I have outgrown my current server.

I have two websites:

#1 is a busy vBulletin based forum with 42,000 members.

#2 is a website with Wordpress and Vbulletin installed (though the forum is nowhere near as busy as the first site) and gets roughly 2000 uniques a day.

When site #2 gets a good surge of visitors from offline media or a large site, site #1 will die first with the "mysql error: too many connections" error and site #2 will take a very very long time to load.

For every other day, the load is quite low, nearly always under 1.50.

The current server that both sites reside on has the following specs:

Quote:

processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 15
model : 2
model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz
stepping : 9
cpu MHz : 2667.540
cache size : 512 KB
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
coma_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 2
wp : yes

bogomips : 5339.18

total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1003 484 519 0 3 192
-/+ buffers/cache: 288 715
Swap: 2047 25 2022

What sort of setup would be best for me?

A files server and a sql server?

A server for site #1 and another for site #2?

A single, more powerful server?

Or something else you recommend?

Also, for the setup you do recommend, can you recommend a hosting company that is reliable and can do it for a good price?

Node Setup - Lots And Lots Of Low Spec Servers Or

Mar 29, 2008

I run a large service on 2 machines (we're talking 8x2.66Ghz processing power, 4-6GB ram, etc), however we are thinking about creating a node/clustered setup to help spread the load, bandwidth, mysql (having one server for hundreds of thousands of databases is not wise it seems :p), diskspace etc. Lots of machines just seems to be a cheaper and more powerful option.

Would you advise going with lots of lower end machines, or just a few mid-range machines.

Here is what I propose:

3 of these
Dual Xeon 3GHZ Dual-Core (4x3GHz)
3GB RAM
500GB Sata Drive
4000 GB Bandwidth
100mbit

or

4 of these
XEON X3220 QUAD CORE 2.4GHZ 1066FSB
2GB DDR2 RAM (Upgradeable)
250GB HDD
2000GB Bandwidth
100mbit

or

7 of these
Dual Xeon 3.06 Ghz
2GB DDR2 RAM
250GB SATA
2000GB BW/MONTH
100mbit

All of the above are roughly similar prices in total.

Dedicated Or Reseller Setup With Virtualization Or Decent Chroot Setup

Jul 31, 2008

As my clients' needs expand, they're asking for chroot ssh/sftp setup. I'm currently on a dedicated Linux setup but don't really have the time to set up a whole new box with full virtualization or investigate a full chroot solution (baby on the way), and to be honest it would be less hassle to move to a new provider than worry about down time with sites.

What I'm looking for:

- linux hosting
- hosting for 30+ accounts, some with several domains
- at least 6 IP addresses for SSL certs
- each account in a full chroot environment (ssh/sftp/ftp) so they can't poke around each others' files, or each account set up in a virtual machine setup (ie: openvz)
- maildir
- spamassassin
- php 5, mysql, perl 5.8.8
- suexec apache would be nice

Hardware: Db Servers, Web Servers, File Servers. Cpu, Ram, Disk

Jan 20, 2007

I have a lot of questions here so if you can't answer them all I understand. even pointing me somewhere where I could get the answers would be appreciated; hardware sites focusing on server hardware, forums focusing on such, etc.

we plan to have three different types of servers:

- db server (self explanatory. mysql. for forums, mysql driven sites.)

- file server (lots of files around ~2-10MB, consistant 70mbps right now, but we want more room for upgrades. needs a LOT of storage room.)

- web server (lots of php files, but also static things like plain html, images, etc. also includes all misc services for the setup-- dns, etc.)

could I be given a rundown for which hardware each of the three should have? I don't need specifics, even just knowing that more ram is important here while cpu doesn't matter as much, or that the fastest disks available are a must, etc would all be valuable info for me. despite that, I certainly wouldn't mind specific hypothetical hardware configs.

for the database server I'm assuming the more ram the better. not entirely sure about the cpu? also not positive on disks...

for the fileserver, how much ram would be practical or useful? disk io will be an issue I'm because plenty of people will be pulling files at once so the disk needs to read from multiple places. scsi (and even raptors) are not an option as we need 750GB+ of space on a reasonable budget. more ram will take some load of of the disks, but how much is neccessary / reasonable?

for the web server I'm assuming cpu first, then ram, but it'll likely need less ram than the db server?

I'm more lost on the disks than anything. scsi on the fileserver is not an option under any circumstances due to $/GB. for the db & web server I'm willing to pay for scsi if the performance increase really does warrant the extra money, but I'd like to be convinced before shelling it out. if you have benchmarks geared at server hardware when it comes to disks I'd really appreciate it.

also, what's the best way to network these together when colocated? each one with a dual gigabit ethernet port and then the communications go to and from the router?

DNS Setup And FTP Setup [LXAdmin/HyperVM]

Aug 1, 2008

I have learnt it is harder to setup than I initially expected (since I have just moved from a shared hosting service). I am in need of some help setting up my DNS servers, as I am very confused. Here is most of the info I know:

1) I am running HyperVM

2) I've installed LXAdmin

3) I own the domain (purchased from xeodomains.com) runemart.com

4) My VPS hostname is: vps.runemart.com

5) I know my IP

6) My host has said:

'For VPS customers that have a HyperVM login you can now host forward DNS on the DNS servers rdns1.vaserv.com (US)rdns2.vaserv.com (UK'

And I am unsure what this means/how to do it.

I am not sure if I need some more information to set up my DNS, however I am sure that I can get it if I do.

Now, my questions begin. Firstly, I need to point my domain - runemart.com - somewhere. I believe I need to set up my DNS via HyperVM or LXAdmin so that they are something like: ns1.runemart.com and ns2.runemart.com. Though, is this correct? Am I able to set up my own actual domain name servers, or will my domain have to point at something like rdns2.vaserv.com?

If anyone can assist me in this I would be very greatful, as I am waiting to get my website running. This is all I will ask for now, I will take it one step at a time =).

Load Balancing 2 Web Servers And 2 MySQL Servers

Mar 28, 2008

I was wondering if it is possible to cluster 2 web servers and 2 mysql servers with only one server working as load balancer.

I am planning to use LVS (ldirectord and heartbeat).

Let's say I have 3 IPs allocated to the load balancing server.

111.222.111.222 (Main IP)
111.222.111.223 (Web Load Balancing IP)
111.222.111.224 (MySQL Load Balancing IP)
If a connection is made to .223 it would pass the request to one of the web nodes.
If a connection is made to .224 it would pass the request to one of the MySQL nodes.

Is it possible to do this?

If not, can I run, for example, nginx on 223 IP address to provide forward proxy? (Then it would not be able to HA but the main point is to load balance so)

Also, what would be the best way to keep the data same on both web servers? This is a web cluster for a very high traffic forum with a lot of uploads every hour so it has to do real time synchronization. I heard that DRDB is only one way and not two way so I'm not going to be able to use this.

Renting Colocated Servers As Dedicated Servers

Oct 11, 2009

I am just colocating servers and managing them myself, and renting services off of them. In the future I would like to start offering dedicated servers as well. I am wondering if many companies do this, or if its more of a general practice to just setup as a reseller? The worst part that comes to mind is thinking of how to do billing for the bandwidth per month. With my setup I would only be offering flat bandwidth packages (like 2TB a month) but even so, I cant think of anyway to automate it so WHMCS knows if they went over, if so, how much, etc.

I am currently researching and evaluating Network Attached Storage systems and was wondering whether anyone out there has had previous experiences (good or bad) with any particular setup?

I am particularly curious to know:

1- what kind of a performance hit I can expect when data is stored on a NAS and accessed via ethernet over iSCSI as opposed to regular SATA or SCSI.

2- what pre-built NAS system would you recommend for a system that requires about 8 TB of disk space for file data and needs to have 100% uptime? I've been looking at: [url]

However I don't know what sort of limitations this hardware offers as far as simultaneous disk reads/writes go.

This server will be part of our existing servers we rent from Pacificrack. I really would appreciate any suggestions as the best way to do this, short of buying my own cisco or checkpoint firewall with vpn.

I need a dedicated IP to make SSL possible.

Do I need an SSL certificate as well or it is only important to make the customers happy? Does SSL works without certificate?

I ask it because some company charge money for the SSL/month and pluss charge money for certificate/year.

What does it mean if the certificate is outdated? The SSL connection works fine, isn't it? I ask it strictly technicaly.

DNS Setup

Apr 16, 2007

We are currently setting up a VPS server, which will be used for a specific client portfolio that we are aquiring from another company. This is a Linux based server with WHM/Cpanel.

However, we wish to set up DNS in the best possible way, since we need to host DNS for some vital ISP services also. I gather this probably means using a combination of DNS on the VPS server itself, as well as one or more other DNS servers in other physical locations. The VPS server itself is located in Amsterdam, while most clients are here in Norway - thus ensuring reliability for local clients is the most important consideration.

Now some key questions:

- How important is the physical location of the DNS servers, and where should these ideally be located?

- Is a cluster solution the way to go - and is this supported by WHM/Cpanel?

- We have Linux and Windows based servers on our local network; could these be used for DNS also? If so, tips on software needed?

Ns1 Vs Ns2 Setup On Different DNS

May 24, 2008

i am currently experimenting DNS with my 2 ips (each with separate servers spread over 2 geographic locations) and my zone file maps these IPs to ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com.

Both of my servers run DNS and with zone entry for my domain name. But when i stop the dns server on first IP (ns1) the second dns server (ip2) not working or resolving. Both are master servers.

My question is if first server DNS fails, the second DNS should resolve? why it is not working. i guess that is reason why domain registrars ask for 2 name servers. if one fails other works as backup??

how do i setup these? should i setup a slave or something?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
main.xxx.com is my hostname
I still can't ping main.xxx.com or xxx.com but my name servers are ok
what exactly the problem?

DNS Setup

May 8, 2007

All the domains on my server are using my own hosted nameservers, but now I have a new domain where I need to use a 3rd party DNS (gratisdns.dk).

The settings on gratisdns.dk wasn't a big deal, but what on my own server?

I created the domain through whm and it is set to use my own DNS just like the other domains. How do I change it to use the DNS from gratisdns.dk?

This is how my zonefile looks like:

Quote:

; Zone file for mynewdomain.dk
$TTL 14400
@ 86400 IN SOA ns1.myownns.com. email.mydomain.com. (
2007050801 ; serial, todays date+todays
86400 ; refresh, seconds
7200 ; retry, seconds
3600000 ; expire, seconds
86400 ) ; minimum, seconds

mynewdomain.dk. 86400 IN NS ns1.myownns.com.
mynewdomain.dk. 86400 IN NS ns2.myownns.com.

mynewdomain.dk. IN A 72.xxx.xxx.xxx

localhost.mynewdomain.dk. IN A 127.0.0.1

mynewdomain.dk. IN MX 0 mynewdomain.dk.

mail IN CNAME mynewdomain.dk.
www IN CNAME mynewdomain.dk.
ftp IN A 72.xxx.xx.xxx

I guess I don't need the A record and Cname here since I set that up at gratisdns.dk?

How should it look and are there anything else I need to change on my server?
