Web Space Storage Or Get Additional Space From Another Server
im running out of space on one of my sites but i have more then plenty of data transfer.
Unfortunately my hosting packaged it weird where they provide not enough hd space. Im trying to figure out is there a way where i can use another server or hosting company that can provide space only and use their servers just for space?
i think amazon.com offered this but wasnt sure how exactly this works.

Building A Server With Lots Of Storage Space
We are going to offer web space to our students and we want to build a new server just for this purpose. We were looking at buying a storage array, a RAID card, and a server. I have no problems building a server; however, I have never built anything with an external enclosure. I am thinking about buying this storage array: www newegg com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816702010 I plan on installing hard drives in every drive bay for a total of 12 drives. The problem I'm having is I don't know what type of RAID card to buy. I saw this one; but, I don't know if it will work with this storage array. www newegg com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816116062 Thanks so much for any light you can shed on this! I apologize for the link but I do not have enough posts insert URLs.

Secure Web Space Costs
I'm working for an organisation which is looking for a company who can provide us with a public website to be updated with a CMS and 132 secure areas which should be accessible from that public website. Today I was sent a proposal by them stating that there would be a cost per year of: £3,350 for data storage areas of up to 20mb space per secure area (i.e. £25 per secure area) £6,700 for data storage areas of up to 75mb space per secure area (i.e. £50.70 per secure area) We really would prefer much more space per area than this (upwards of 2GB per area) and are a bit wary of how much is being charged for the storage space. I have three questions on this : 1) How do these prices compare with other hosts that you know of? Are they reasonable? 2) Is this 'secure space' much more expensive than normal space? 3) Are there hosts that offer unlimited secure space for reasonable prices? Btw, these are the facilities that this host provides: 6 redundant Internet connections 24x7x365 onsite support Fire protection Backup power generators Daily back up to magnetic tape media Anti virus protection for all uploaded content Industry Standard Cisco firewalls

Web Space As Personal Backup
Does any reliable hosting company that offers hundreds of gigs space allow "personal backups", ie. non-web content? I've been looking at ToS of some big names but most if not all don't allow this. It would be only 1-2 gigs, so I might get away with it anyway on most hosts, but would like to avoid problems in the future. Dreamhost offers both SVN and rsync, which I'd like a lot, but they clearly forbid such use. And, I do have an external hard drive and very important files are also on DVD and memory stick, but since I need to purchase webhosting I'm looking at this extra option too.

Shared File Space For All Web Servers
Is it normal practice to have shared filespace that multiple web servers can access? Then I just provide my developers access to that filespace (one server, instead of multiple users on multiple servers) to manage files for different sites easily... right? (also meaning multiple servers can serve the same content) So.. what would be the best way to do this? We're talking Linux systems here by the way. What sort of specs would such a server need? I *think* it's NAS that I'm trying to get at.. unsure though if that's correct or not!

UK Web Hosting 500MB Space 1GB Bandwidth Existing .org.uk Domain
I'm the webmaster for a church website: stpetersbraunstone.org.uk and our domain & hosting renewal is coming up, so I'm looking to see if there's a better deal. We're with namehog.net (and have been for 2 years with no problems at all) on their Professional package. The renewal fees are 105GBP (web hosting) + 5.90GBP (domain name) + 17.5pc VAT to cover the next 2 years, which comes to 130.31GBP. The site is powered by WordPress, so PHP and MySQL are needed. And we upload lots of photos, so need at least 250MB webspace I'd have thought. So far, our highest monthly bandwidth usage has been under 800Mb, and our visitor numbers are increasing and our highest monthly figure so far was 401. Any recommendations gratefully received. There seems to be many different companies out there who offer what I want, so I'm after some personal recommendations please. I've already used this site to discount streamline.net due to bad reviews. I'm looking at fuzioned.com and redfoxhosting.co.uk - any thoughts? I've also come across no-wires.co.uk - has anyone had any good or bad experiences with them? And yes, I have submitted my details to the "request quote" thing.

Server With Incorrect Disk Space Sums
I have a debian4 server, and I've been playing around with apt adding different things I believe I'll need for this development box. Only today, I noticed that my disk sums doesn't seem to add up: dev:~# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda3 74644096 1419988 69432368 3% / tmpfs 507704 0 507704 0% /lib/init/rw udev 10240 40 10200 1% /dev tmpfs 507704 0 507704 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda1 202225 22194 169589 12% /boot dev:~# free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 991 590 401 0 45 480 -/+ buffers/cache: 64 927 Swap: 2055 0 2055 dev:~# fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 26 208844+ 83 Linux /dev/hda2 27 288 2104515 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/hda3 289 9729 75834832+ 83 Linux phpSysInfo Output: [url] The HD is: hda: WDC WD800BB-00DKA0 (Capacity: 74.53 GB) As you can see, I have used approximately 1.4GB of the 74GB, but regardless what kind of funky math I do, I seem to be missing about 3.5 GB or so.

Looking For A Dedicated Server With 3-4 TB Of Space For ~100 USD A Month
I'm looking for a server with 3-4 TB of disk space and moderate traffic requirements (1.5-2 TB a month will suffice). CPU, RAM do not really matter. Location: EU or US. Price: ~100 USD a month with some setup fee or ~120 USD without. So far I found OVH's SP Storage (http://www.ovh.co.uk/individual/products/superplan_storage.xml) which offers 4 x 1.5 TB RAID0/1 drives for a total of 3 TB disk space. However I can't register with them and their sales did not react quickly enough yet to help me. Is there anyone else with similar offerings with whom you have personal experience?

Want To Trade 1U Colo Space For Domain Name Server (DNS) And Disaster Continuence
In light of whats happened at the Planet in Houston we are moving up our plans to have an external DNS nameserver (with failover) and emergency website to alert customers in the event of our data center (C4D in Dallas) ever goes down. From all the forum messages reagrds this event its apparent that a lot of hosting companies are suffering the worst from having their support websites at the DC where they host their customers and have no way of notifying their customers of whats going on. Looking to trade 1U of rack space and 1 ip address anywhere in US (Dallas preferred) with someone else who is looking for the same thing. While we are extremely happy with C4D and have faith in their DC, you can never be 100% prepared for things beyond your control.

UK IP Space
Does any know of any UK companies who do public IP space? aka putting a request into RIPE for some IPs (with justification). We only need a class c and we cannot justify the fees of joining ourself to RIPE. Getting IPs from our current provider isnt possible as we want our own IPs so if we ever moved away we could take the addresses with us without having to change.

Portable IP Space?
The last time I applied for a portable block from ARIN was about 7 years ago, and it was pretty easy to get when you could justify a /22. I'm just about to begin this process with my current company. Right now we're using a a /24 and 2x /23's from 3 different providers, and are hoping to get a portable block from ARIN. Basically needing a /21, do we stand a chance of getting a portable block, or are we still stuck getting our prefix from one of our providers?

Route My IP Space
what is needed is a dedicated server or colocation in which my portable IP space (a class c assigned to me in 1995) can be routed to in its entirety. We will then have a VPN back to our own site. This could be accomplished by the ISP BGP peering, or simply announcing the routes themselves. We've got clue in routing, both in OpenBSD and IOS. The machine doesn't have to be too powerful, and needs little storage space, but the bandwidth provided has to be decent. This is for a hobbyist rather than commercial project, so price is an issue.

How Is It A Waste Of Space
I'm starting to get annoyed with companies stipulating that is it considered a waste of space to store your own files, and backups or whatever on your shared hosting account. I don't understand why that is considered a waste of space you purchase that space and bandwidth. So why can you not use it for whatever you want in legal terms. In fact I would be confident to say I have not seen a single terms of service NOT state that you cannot use your space as storage.

VPS Space Available
I have a 30gb vps which I only have used about 6gb. This 6gb is a live site so if that means anything. I want to take 15gb of it and use it for personal ftp storage where I can access it at work and via at home so I don't have to always copy things to media discs. My question is that will doing that and just leaving 9gb give or take on my live site affect performance or anything.

Difference Of Used Space Between Du -hs And Df
I have a partition /dev/sda2 which is mounted to /webroot. Today, I find that I can't upload any files via IPB (running on lighttpd) So, as usual, I went on SSH and tried df in order to see how much space is left on the server: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on <deleted> /dev/sda2 20641788 19483292 109856 100% /webroot Since lighttpd is running inside chroot, I thought it was the log files but even after I deleted them, it is still at 100% usage. After spending some time, I couldn't find any large files so I did du -hs to see which folder is using large amount of space. web1:/webroot# du -hs /webroot 2.2G /webroot I'm without a clue on this as what du -hs is telling me and df is different but it seems like the partition is really full.

Reserved Space
Does anyone know how most hosters would handle this situation?A hoster has a customer with a certain config, let's say 2 servers and a firewall This customer anticipates growing, perhaps later in the year, and will likely add a number of servers In an effort to avoid migrations within the DC, does the hoster reserve space in the rack? Would the hoster charge the customer for said reserved space? I'm just wondering what standard practice is, if there is one.

Why So Little Disk Space
I've got a server in a local colo facility. both the facility and my server are slowly falling apart. Rather than investing in hardware and then shipping it to some location and hoping it doesn't break, I've decided to investigate VPS. What I am finding is puzzling me. Why do providers charge so much for disk space? My current old p3-733 has a 30gb drive, I could deal with about 15gb but with some 'flex' room (i.e. a virtual drive for uncompressing files or some such). It's a personal server for me and a couple of friends, it doesn't get much traffic, I don't need a heck of a lot of bandwidth, nor anything flashy, just Ubuntu 8.04. I see places offering plenty of traffic for a decent price, yet little in the way of storage. I just don't get it. A year ago I was here wanting to trade my class C for a dedicated server. I realize now that it would be pretty difficult for providers to do this, because if I wanted to yank my class c they'd have to renumber. But if anyone is still interested, let me know.

Where To Get FTP Space
I read an offer from a company a month or so ago that offered some plan where you were given a certain amount of space on an ftp server. I'm not sure if it was hosting as well or just ftp space. Then each month you paid $5 or something and for as long as you have your account with them they give you and extra 5-10GB per month. So your space on the server grows with your needs. Does anyone know the company? I can't find it anymore but I'd like to take another look at them.

Saving Space With Rsync
Just wondering if you guys had any resolutions to this. We are looking to save space on our rsync backups. I know you can use the --compress, or -z and it compresses data on the fly to save bandwidth but is there anyway to keep the data compressed so it takes up less space once it is on the server and still make it so it only copies over the file changes? If not, anyone have any suggestions on how to save space with rsync backups?

Unlimited Space And Bandwidth For 4$
while looking for a host I've found that there are many hosts that offer unlimited web space and unlimited bandwidth for very little money like 4$ per month and there are also expensive web hosts that offer limited but big webspace and high bandwidth for much more money. What am I missing here? If a big website like yahoo decides to buy that 4$ per month host and move there, what would happen? Would the bandwidth really be enough and not slow down? If it wouldn't carry yahoo then why do they say it's unlimited? I'm confused because I've heard about people spending thousands of dollars for big websites every month.

Need 2 Sites To Share Space
for my inexperience and lack of techno speak... With my last hosting company I was able to buy another domain, but use my existing web space I was using for a different domain, so I didn't need to purchase more web space as what I had was plenty for both my sites. This was a feature that I was able to select from as part of a bonus offer. With my new host, I can not see this feature (whatever you may call it) and when I asked my hosting company about it, they just said 'yes, we can park domains'...maybe they didn't understand my question, because I don't think I'm parking it. Can I do this with any hosting company? - have 2 different domains and sites sharing my one space?

Companies That Sell IP Space
Are there companies out there that we can purchase IP's from? We might be moving data centers in 6 months and I am sick of asking my customers to always change their IP's every year. Are there companies that we can purchase an IP block from and then carry those over to different data centers? I am looking for something like a /26. We currently have (2) /27's with our data center right now, but I would prefer a single /26 to keep all our IP's in the same range. I've looked at trying to get them from ARIN, but the minimum they want to sell is a /22. Also, how easy is it for data centers to announce your own IP space?

Disk Space Keeps Growing
I get this message from the shared Apache server (I have a reseller account and host about 50 sites) where one of my sites is and it says the site is almost out of space. I only have it at 60 megs because the site itself is about 20 to 25 megs, so this should be plenty of room. So, I emailed my hosting company and they say it's the 'analog' web statistics folder that keeps getting bigger, n bigger causing this issue. I told them that I only use Awstats and they said "If you don't want to use 'analog' web statistics you can delete "tmp/analog" folder" So, my question is this...how do you delete the "tmp/analog folder"?
