Oct 4, 2009what size stripe size people are using on their web servers on their raid setups?  
Larger, or smaller considering the nature of web based files being smaller.

One of our resellers has an account.. When looking into cpanel, it says that that account is using 3300megs. When we go into the ftp of that account, in reality it is only using 1.3megs. This is a huge difference! Most of folders are empty.
We are using the latest version of WHM and Cpanel.
as you know we can use followins to back up db 
1- HMS [(hosting Managemen Script = cPanel / Plesk/vDeck]
2-phpmyadmin adn 3.th party script 
3-SSH/Telnet
but why db size is differrent after backing-up?
db in server is for example 120MB
When i use SSH to back up db is 75MB
//          //    phpmyadin-------------120 mb
                   HMS ---------------------110MB
I am hosting 80 domains on a dedicated server which is dishing up only about 80GB per month in bandwidth. Disk space is minimal at under 20GB. Sites are mostly PHP5 and MySQL. Some Perl. Using apache2.
Right now the server is a dual Opteron and it seems to be overkill for the job at hand. In an effort to lower my monthly cost I am wondering how small of a server I can go with and still allow some margin for only minimal growth.
Dare I go as small as one of these (from cheapest to most $): 
1.7 Pentium 4 and 512 RAM, IDE
Athlon 3000+ and 1GB RAM, SATA
2.8 Pentium D and 1GB RAM, SATA
Used chirpy's method
/etc/init.d/chkservd stop
/etc/init.d/mysql stop
umount /var/tmp
umount /tmp
replace "256000" "512000" -- /scripts/securetmp
rm /usr/tmpDSK
/scripts/securetmp --auto
cd /tmp
ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
/etc/init.d/mysql start
/etc/init.d/chkservd start
df
Problem
[root@host ~]# umount /tmp                         
umount: /tmp: device is busy
umount: /tmp: device is busy
[root@cmee34 ~]# lsof | grep /tmp                    
sshd      6650      root    9u     unix 0xf57fe300               24988 /tmp/ssh-SDVLUi6650/agent.6650
If I killall -9 sshd, I got obviously logged out of ssh. I need to make /tmp 1GB instead of the current 500MB it is now.
I seem to be hitting the tcpsndbuf max size occasionally, my host says they can not change it (there is plenty of free ram) and if I want it raised, I need to upgrade to a larger plan. 
Was just curious as to what kind of tcpsndbuf size you guys have on your VPS plans?
I have an issue of overload on my server running just a wordpress blog. I described my problem here :p=5384916
my website is situated on a folder named xxxx/public_html/
Now I discovered a folder named logs. its path is xxxx/logs
there is 2 files on it:
access.log ( 19 GB )
and error.log ( 31 Mb )
is it a relationship between my server overload and my access.log big size?
I have never been to a datacenter. My friend has a rack at a datacenter near my house so he will be able to provide me some space for a monthly payment. At first I thought of getting a 1U server but it ended up costing too much and a hassle to find the proper sized parts. Now I have decided to go with a mini tower instead so I was wondering whether it would make a difference if I were to use a mini tower or a larger sized tower. If I used a mini would I be able to fit more computers or would it not make a difference?

Now, when I upload files to my server, some files upload fine but most upload but with 0 file size. That's weird. What can cause this? I used 3 FTP clients same results also no passive mode..
I manage a high traffic website on one of my dedicated servers. It currently serves around 2 million uniques/mo. 
In time, due to page changes, around 200 important URIs got a redirect [L,R=301] in the main .htaccess file that's sitting on the root directory. 
Redirects are in the form of : person/J/James_Blake_2000/ --> /user/James_Blake/ 
Thus, the .htaccess file has reached well above 200 lines. 
I would like to kindly ask for advice: should I limit the dimension of this htaccess file ? 
How do you guys treat these permanent redirects?

I own a parenting site, mid-sized I think (1100 members). We were recently "fired" by our host for server load. Sooo, I'm in the market for a new host. I'm so gun shy right now, because everyone is reassuring me they can handle us, but then so did the company that we're currently with. 
Specs:
Phpbb3 software
Bandwith - 17.7gb so far this month
Disk Space - 111.3 mb this month
There are an average of 100 members on line at a time. I've been told we need a dedicated server by some, though I don't think we're big enough at this venture for one, and it's out of our budget. I realize the things I listed above don't have much to do with server load, but I figured I'd share anyway. 
I uploaded my file to web server(html, image file and css file), but strangely after uploaded it to server all file that I uploaded size 0 KB. I uploaded it using WS FTP.

There is a only 1 image that is linked (not embedded) and have a sike 8133 byte. Image is online.

Size is different.. why ?
we can import dataabse with phpmyadmin files which size is under 8meg

I have a database which is growing to have about 100 tables.  These tables will grow in size and sometime I will need to use RAID 5, I am told by my server provider.
My questions are:-
1. if these other servers are mirrors, should I have the database stored on each server?
2. when one server gets too busy, does the RAID query a lesser-used server so as not to bog down the first one?
3. Or, do I need to have different content in each db on each server so a query gets what it needs form each?
Right now APC shm_size is set to30 and since I am only using about 20% of the RAM in VPS, I thought it would be best to increase it a bit. Now how do I go about doing that?
