any recommendations for a website availability monitoring service? That is, I'd like a service that checks my site regularly, say every 5 minutes, and then calls my cellphone /txts-me if it ever goes down.
Googling around turns up a sizable number of places that do this. But, I'd like to make I'm going with somebody who's reasonably good.

I use Pingdom "Pro" (or whatever the paid version is to be branded as), and I think it is fantastic. It is yet to let us down or misinform us. It'll be interesting to see whether we see quality dilution from the inevitable rush of freebie accounts.
I'm trying to determine what type of hosting setup (and hardware) I'd need for a web-site that expects 50,000 page views daily with peaks around 500,000.
the idea is to have it stable and serving content (almost all of which will be static).
Are there any hosting organizations or hardware configs that people would recommend?
Do you use any uptime monitoring service? If so, which one do you use? Do you use a paid monitoring service, or a free one?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'd like to know if there are good monitoring services to monitor my VPS.
Not just the website,but everything on the VPS.
I know there is Hyperspin,but i need more to look at.
I want to get an alert by email if there is something wrong with my server.
Also i'd like to receive daily reports by email.
Since this weekend I have a managed VPS from ServInt,I really like it.
They manage and monitor my VPS,but I also like to monitor my VPS,just for fun ;-)
Is there a free monitoring service like Hyperspin to monitor my server?
Is there any third party free VPS internet connection monitoring service that notifies when there is no internet connection?... I know there are lots of website uptime montioring services.... but I use VPS for using windows applications and no web page and I need to know if there is an internet connection failure...... Is there any third party service that checks this and it will not be hosted by me but the service ?.... I need to know when there is a fialure in the internet connection... It can ping or use other ways...
Another thing I am looking for is a software that notifies me by email when the windows VPS is restarted without my attendance....
especially for the internet monitoring?
any free scripts that allow you to monitor uptime status of your servers, local/remote?
most simplistically, just have one server that pings / http requests from other servers to see if they're online, and generates stats.
more ideally, be able to set up multiple checking nodes (like what host-tracker does) so it can check uptime of multipel servers from multiple locations and build reports.
What do you guys use for server monitoring?
I have been looking to find a good solution to notify me when either of my 3 servers go down. Preferably by SMS.
I have been trying [url].
But it seems to have a massive delay. from 1 hour, to 6 hours.
I've been trying to find a decent and reasonably priced website/server monitoring service that alerts me by SMS and email if something goes down. I have 3 HTTP addresses and one HTTPS I'd like to check in 5 minute intervals.
Have you had any good experiences with services like this?
one of my dedicated is a kind of semi managed.
They guys monitor it 24 hours and if some thing goes wrong like
apache is dead they fix it.
how can I limit their access and authoriy over my Server while
I can let them to monitory my server!
I know nothing about server management and my other dedi is mully managed not this one.
Let’s say I have the website myname.com
Myname.com is a very popular website and his content mirrors in 2servers (Server A and Server B) in 2 different datacenters (exactly same content).
When Server A fails due to datacenter or rack problem and no site is responding, then I need some service to transfer ALL traffic to server B. Is there any (paid or free) service doing such a thing? If yes, what about dns propagation? As far as I am concerned, dns propagation is a very slow procedure depending on each internet provider.
So how could we instantly make Server B to come live to ALL visitors? Is there any quick and reliable dns redundancy system without having to wait for dns propagation?
Lets say I own domain sexy.com
I want to offer email to users me@sexy.com, you@sexy.com etc etc.
What do I need? Is a webhost sufficient for hosting email service?
any system/script to take care of the user management side?
I saw a few website monitor service but I can't find it anymore.
(i only have 1 website to monitor) and allow email notification.
I have a problem with my linux server using plesk 12x, I am using postfix as the email service, all emails are working from the webmail (horde) and from any email client using smtp.However the service is not working from the website (contact form on Wordpress) nor through the ssh commands. I have searched for few days but I still seem to have an issue.

we are currently planning to implement SAN to our enviroment - VPS hosting.
Al VPS should be placed on the SAN - iSCSI connected to be able live motion etc.
Currently we are fighting with idea of Failover/High avalability.
There has been rumors that dual controller SAN from HP/DELL are much more problematic than single controller versions.
We are also thinking about running some opensource like OpenFiler/FreeNAS/OpenSolaris or NexentaStore on supermicro boxes with SATA or single RAID controller.
But in that case - how make the iSCSI target highly available? Mirroring of the data/space is pretty easy with DRBD or ZFS but when one SAN box goes down, there should be no interruption in iSCSI targe service - no IP change etc..
Is anyone aware of the current availability of colocation space at Equinix in Ashburn, VA? We are currently trying to obtain some space with them but getting my dedicated sales contact to respond is like pulling teeth! Are they so full (and thus full of themselves) that we will have to operate on THEIR terms (if at all)? At this point we are soliciting quotes from other datacenters of known lesser quality just so we can get this deployment live...
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am having a new mission to achieve and I really need some pro-Windows system to help me with their advices.
I have a server which requires high availability of data and service. Basically the server run a server/client service and all clients makes their operation over this server. The server is a simple Windows 2003 Web Edition server.
My goal is to have one server running (let’s say Tom with IP 192.168.0.1) and one running as stand-by (let’s say Jerry with IP 192.168.0.2) ready to take over if the first server crashes (this would remind pro-Linux some kind of DRBD and Heartbeat server).
So, the the first server run without problem, all transactions are going to be written in the directory “D:/Transactions”. This directory must be saved in real-time to the second server which stands in case of failure...
The first server also run a Windows service, which has to be stopped on the stand-by server and started ONLY if the first server is not working anymore.
I would like also the two servers (Tom and Jerry) to share a virtual IP address on the one which is having the service running, let’s say this IP would be 192.168.0.3.
When the first server goes offline hung or whatever, the second server take over, start the service and does the job of the first - when the first come back online, I re-sync the data from the second to the first and then, I switch it back (or all this fully automated if possible).
NOTE: the service that I need to run is special and is not one of the normal basic Microsoft service, it’s an in-house written service.
My question are :
- What software(s) do I need to do this ?
- Is there anything that I should be aware of ?
- Is there some provider (on both east and west) cost which can provide me help for the hardware part of this project ?
This is clearly the next logical step in hosting. Consider what RAID1 did for hard drive availability. Worried about your disk failing? No problem - throw in a duplicate. From a user/admin perspective the mirrored disks appear as one, highly reliable disk. Every modern OS supports this, even cheap motherboards support it, with a minimal amount of configuration.
The perfect high availability cluster should be completely transparent. Think about it... What if clustered hardware allowed you to manage a single instance of your chosen server OS with no worries about hardware/network/power failure?
The closest you can get to this finding a host that will give you a dual power supply server connected to different power feeds, dual network cards connected to different switches, and hot-swappable mirrored hard drives. This solution still doesn't give you any protection from CPU, memory, or motherboard failure.
I want a solution that is as simple to configure and manage as simple RAID1 mirroring.
where I can now ip is availble or not? and how i buy it?
View 10 Replies View RelatedWe are trying to develop a design for a cluster of web servers at a single data center which will ensure that the cluster, as a whole, has very, very high availability.
Each of the servers is basically identical. They all serve web pages, and each can act relatively independently of the other.
Our initial thought was to put the servers behind a redundant, hardware-based, load balancing solution. The load balancers would be able to detect if any single webserver went down, and would redirect traffic to the other servers in that case.
An alternative -- less expensive -- solution that has been suggested to us is to use EtherChannel. We're concerned, however, that it might not be as robust an approach as the load balancer solution.
how we can best assure the high availability of our cluster?
Cost is an important consideration for us.
In addition, we'd prefer a solution that allowed for session maintenance. That is, once a user starts interacting with a particular server in our cluster, it would be nice if they could continue interacting with that particular physical server.
As an aside, I'll mention that we intend to implement this approach at two different data centers in different geographic regions, and use round robin DNS to further ensure high availability of the overall set of servers.
I already have a VPS with Knownhost but since i'm hosting a critical application i really need High Availability.
Could anyone recommend a company that can provide me this?
I rent a VPS with them + pay additional tax and they conf a VPS Cluster.
The application is PHP + Mysql based. Everything is stored on MySQL and the PHP is only changed when there is a upgrade. Also, PHP is compiled with Ioncube ( doesn't know if this matters ).
Has anyone been able to find any compatible RAM in 2G DIMMs for the SuperMicro X8SIL motherboard running either Corei7 or X34** LGA1156 processors? And what about reasonably priced 4G modules? I just want to make sure to purchase the right RAM before moving to a setup with this board / processor. Unless the RAM for this is crazy priced, I really don't want to go the Core2 Quad route when for about the same I can go with the newer LGA1156 stuff. But I have seen where people are having issues with RAM compatability and availability.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have created an ASP.NET (so solution needs to be windows) web service which other website will access to draw data.
I have been testing GoGrid, whilst the concept is great the uptime is not quite there at the moment, but its only Beta so this is to be expected.
I ideally want a load balanced system, but one that can detect failure and stop directing traffic to the failed server.
Can anyone recommend a company with an option for load balancing with failure detection?
has anyone had experience in building high availability systems?
