which type of CPU would be better for a web server that will run Windows, PHP, ColdFusion, mail, DNS, and IIS. Would a dual core CPU with a higher clock speed do better than a quad core CPU with lower clock speed? For instance, would a dual core 3 Ghz processor do better than a quad core at 2.4Ghz?
View 6 Repliesjust out of interest, does anyone know a ssh command(s) to bring up your servers hardware stats? Cpu type and clock speed, memory, disks etc.
I've looked everywhere for a shell command to show cpu type with no luck.
I read the spec is 4 cores, but my linux recognize 8 cores?
Which one is correct?
to pickup a dedicated MySQL 5 server from Dell running Linux. I have the option of either getting:
(1x) Quad Core Xeon E5430 2x6MB Cache 2.66Ghz
OR
(2x) Quad Core Xeon E5405 2x6MB Cache 2.00Ghz
They are about the same price. What option is best? The 4 cores but 666mhz faster each core, or double the cores (8), but less mhz per core. Can MySQL 5 even use 8 cores effectivley?
is this any kind of Intel Processors comes with 32 Cores? Or can anyone Build Dedicated Server with 32 Cores?
As i see today someone offered me via Email Inter Xeon 7450 Processor with 32 Core!!!
So is it Right ?
I have a new server. Is there any way, from the command line if possible, to tell how many processors and cores my new server has?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've just migrated server to server but I didn't use the migration manager, I simply backed up each domain's content and restored those backups on the new server.
The issue I have run into is the scheduled tasks at the admin level (Tools & Settings > Scheduled Tasks) work but any schedule task under a domain do not. The scheduled tasks under the domains show as inactive (no green tick) and when I click to enable them, I get the following message
"Information: The scheduled task Google Product Feed Daily Scheduled Task was switched on."
If I then look at the page, even though the above message says it is, the scheduled task is still not enabled. Going into the scheduled task and switching it on there results in the same message, but it doesn't switch on.
How to rebuild all of the scheduled tasks within Plesk?

Why are there many people setting their TTL to higher values rather than lower ones? By setting it lower, won't it propagate faster?
View 5 Replies View RelatedNormally on our slowest day of the week, RAM usage is around 20%-25%. We see RAM usage increase as more users hit the site, thus, RAM usage historically, has been tied to public bandwidth. Recently, RAM usage has been hitting 32%-35% on our slowest day of the week (as indicated by bandwidth usage). I am guessing that something is keeping apache threads opened and/or a cron-driven process which invokes httpd isn't finishing for whatever reason. This is only my guess after some research and looking at whm reporting and top. With my limited server knowledge, these are only my guesses.
1. What could be causing this increase RAM usage?
2. How do we find out what is causing it?
3. We did recently installed the OpenX ad server but there are no ads being served, we just implemented the CRON job for testing purposes. Maybe this could be the cause but how do we tell?
In order to increase the reliability of a audio streaming service I am thinking to take the action I describe below.
1. Buy two Windows VPSs with WMS installed.
2. Register a domain name (i.e audiostream.com) with 4 nameservers: ns1.ip1_vps1, ns2.ip2_vps1, ns3.ip1_vps2, ns4.ip2_vps2.
3. Create all publishing points (streams) on both servers.
Normaly VPS1 should serve all clients. In case VPS1 goes down, VPS2 should jump in and serve all clients-connections. As soon as VPS1 becomes available (ns1 & ns2 start responding again), VPS1 starts serving all new connections.
Load balancing or any other kind of advanced load, traffic, etc management is not important.
Then we have the following cases:
1. VPS1 is down , which means that VPS2 should take charge.
2. VPS1 is up (ns, http, ftp services), but WMS1 is down (crashed). Means that the playlist (asx) file should be built so that it also includes the IP, port & publishing points of VPS2. This should be done because ns1 & ns2 will answer without any problem, but WMS1 will be crashed and won't serve any media connections, thus ASX will look for the next available stream in the playlist.
Do you think that the above is possible. Is this gonna work?
I'm on a vps and sometimes hit 100% of my allowable cpu - this company allows me to burst to one cpu but no farther. I also have a new vps at Servint and have yet to learn their cpu allotments.
My older host that is hitting CPU limits and slowing and having times of outages, suggest i take their high end 4 CPU cores (Intel Clovertown E5310 or better), SAS/SCSI drives (in RAID), 8 GB memory for just $250/month (basic management, no control panel).
CPU is my weak point so should i consider 8 cores?
I can add 3 times the volume of traffic once I'm capable of handling it.
4 or 8 cores? How much more will 8 cores cost?
We are trying to use the new Wordpress toolkit, but when we try to install an instance it says this:

I must be missing something obvious.
I select a vps of Smokyhosts last friday, but I found the clock of it an hour off the correct time,
eg. I set the timezone to UTC, the correct NTP time is 3:00, but the clock of vps is display 2:00, It's an hour before the correct time.
I think this is an error when they first set the clock of host node, I send several tickets to Smokeyhosts support, but they told me I can set to another timezone not in my country, I think this is not reasonable.
and they told me they do not allow any time change requests for the hardware node even if it's error.
Since the clock of VPS is an hour error, even if I can set another timezone not my country. but if I have a forum on this VPS, and user can set their own timezone settings, they would be puzzled to find what they seclectd timezone is always an hour off,
I must be explain this to them? I think this is not acceptable.
I understand the NTP would be impossible to all VPS, but they should ensure the host node's clock is correct relatively, now it's an hour off, I think they can correct this easily if they would like to do.
another small question is when I get the vps, Mysql was installed, but the user "mysql" is not exist in system, So mysql service can't start, I add this myself, and it's ok.
Now all other things looks well except the clock.
their support always response quickly, i'm very satisfied with them.

I might get a couple more for virtualization.
I have an VPS at cheapvps.co.uk since November 2007. It has worked like a charm until a week ago. Since the massive crack from last week and the subsequent shutdown & boot, the clock on my VPS is going crazy.
Clock is really accelerated, a minute in the real world equals to more than 2 minutes within the VPS. I'm having lots of problems with dates in the future, and cheapvps support team is working to get this solved with no success.
One of our server's system clock seems to gradually creep away from the correct time. It has been causing us a lot of issues. After one day it becomes more than one hour off. After each minute it becomes a few seconds off.
Any ideas what could be causing this? It's uptime is ~2 months so it doesn't happen when it goes offline, it happens while it is running.
Right now we have a cronjob running ntpdate every few minutes as even with the ntpd service running it would end up off by several minutes when we would check. I have a feeling this isn't a very reliable fix though.
There is serious clock skew all across the 4 CTs I have put in an OpenVZ HN which runs Debian GNU/Linux, the kernel Linux is v2.6.26, waldi tree. The HN shows correct time, the CMOS RTC is bang correct.

bigblue kernel: CPU1: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled
I am running windows 2003, and I patched it with the timezone windows update, everything was fine, but when I looked today, the clock is one hour slow.
But when I run my php scripts, it shows the time being correct. I thought php grabbed the time from the system? Perhaps this is just a bug with the clock, and the internal system time is correct? It is the only thing I can think of.
I'm trying to upgrade from php 5.2.0 to 5.2.2 but for some reason I receive the following errors:

Running cPanel/WHM, Centos.
I've never had the above before,
I have worked with VMWare quite a bit, and have found that no matter what tweaking you do a clock skew of up to a minute (relative to the host clock, itself kept accurate enough via NTP) is unavoidable at times, at least for a Linux 2.6.x based guest.
Do any of the common technologies allow guests to be kept more closely in sync with the host clock and so be more accurate (assuming the host's clock isn't wide of the mark, of course)? Do some of the technologies work OK with using NTPd to regulate the guest clock (under VMWare this is bad idea as it "conflicts" with VMWares own clock synchronisation method potentially making things worse than they otherwise would be).
The reason for the question is that I'm playing with some code that will run on a few different locations and while I can use an external source to fake a clock to the accuracy I want (+/- a second or two) most of the time, I wouldn't have to if I could rely on the VM's wall-clock being that accurate. If the project goes anywhere (my toy projects usually don't!) it would use real machines, but at this stage I'd rather avoid that expense/hassle.
Can not change in 24 hour Clock mode Plesk 12?The scheduled backups start false, because in Plesk 12 running 12 hours mode.The language in Plesk is German.

What is the right approach to do it ?
- Using exec() function and execute commands
- Write directly to /var/spool/cron/<username>
I see I can only create a single backup task in plesk, server self repository or ftp repository.
