Greetings:
Are there any calculators, white papers, or other guidelines that provide guidance for sizing a physical server to be used for openvz or Virtuozzo for Linux?
i.e. if you want to run “x” VPS nodes totaling “y” disk space needing “z” number of processes, etc. you will need “n” CPU’s of at least ____ Ghz with ____ RAM, and ____ hard drive space of which ________ should be reserved for the operating system and openvz system software
Also for openvz or Virtuozzo for Linux, which RAID provides the fastest performance without trading off too much for hard drive reliability?

I have been a user of sitepoint for quite a while now. I am developing software applications at present and keep bumping my head into the same old question.
Which is better, Linux or Windows servers. (Probably a question which depends on what they are used for of course.) In this case, they would be used to store a database for the application and therefore communicate with it etc.
The choice is, do I develop the application in .net and use windows or do I go down the PHP route and use Linux.
This is the options that have been explained to me, of course I am not a developer myself so am just hearing the advice I am told.

This question, and many questions relating to this I am sure must have reasoning behind it. It basicly relates down to the following;
Why do game servers use up more CPU on Linux, opposed to Windows?
Some people say it doesnt, and that is true for some games, but most games I have found, the CPU usage of the game on a Linux based server is far higher.
Just as an example, most Steam games.
I really would like to know why, and how it could be reduced. What are some things I can install, or configure to make game servers run more smoothly or use less CPU on Linux?
If anyone has any ideas & thoughts related to this, please let me/us know, for im sure this is beneficial to all.
Just to add in, I use CentOS 4.6 Final.

ERROR: {VZSRV} Virtuozzo API function call 'VZVolumeMount' failed openssh.efd

Template(s) openssh,msde is(are) not installed.

Has the VZ bug where "doing a Windows Update on a node applies it to the whole server and then reboots the node" been fixed yet. We offer Linux VPS using VZ and was going to use it for Windows too but when I heard that I put the plan on hold.

I could see having problems with these vps's..if I was really doing something I am not suppose to. This is not the case.
I am currently having problems with two out of four vps's at the moment..and..I am appalled.
Take VPS #3. All I tried to do was install SQL Express and it's management component so I can slap smartersuite on there.
SQL errors..dot.net errors..this is a joke, right?
My 32bit VPS is completely unreachable due to the very same thing..all I did was put SQL express on it..didn't even get to the management part.
Of course I assigned a root password. Still...is this par the course? Are databases something these vps's can't handle?
I'd really like to know now..before I waste anymore time with this.
I certainly had none of this two years ago with my vmware winodws vps's. Anybody still offer those?

As many of you are aware..I have two of these from 1and1..and are quite enjoying them..and may even add a third to the fleet today.
Aside from no update thing..many of you have had misadventures with these I would care not to have. Are there limitations to what you can install? I remember putting Oracle on one before..and that worked fine (surprised me) and I have put Tomcat on a linux vps before..worked fine...even after I started seriously using it (which is sometimes when fun really starts) and it was still fine.
I am more intersted in using these to test CGI scripts..learn ASP and .NET..and whatnot. I guess my primary question is this:
Can these be used to test applications before trying them on a real server? How close to the real thing are these vps's?
If experience is useful..it would say pretty darn close to the real thing. I do need a Vmware based one, though.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of each solution? So far we have been using Virtuozzo Windows VPS and we would like to learn how it compares to MS Virtual Server 2005.

We use VS 2005 and are happy with the stability and performance etc but wanted to know if there are any great advantages to using virtuozzo? It seems that a higher ratio of VPS per box can be achieved with virtuozzo due to the ability to share RAM but is this worth it for the extra cost of licenses and possible security / stability risks?

In case you missed it:

Without any fanfare, at the beginning of September, Parallels released Virtuozzo Containers (formerly Virtuozzo) 4.5.
Version 4, launched in January, unified for the first time the Windows and Linux branches, introducing major new features like virtual SMP masking and support for Microsoft and Red Hat cluster services.
Version 4.5, which is built on this new architecture, brings in a wire range of new capabilities:
Enhanced resource management (CPU pools, vCPUs remapping on logical CPUs, offline vHD fragmentation)
Containers cloning
Containers startup order
Support for Windows Server 2008 (32/64bit, with or without Hyper-V, up to Service Pack 1) and its new Failover Clustering
Support for Hyper-V (it’s not exactly clear if this just means that the Hyper-V parent partition can be segmented in containers, or something else)
Support for TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) NICs inside the containers
Support for new 3rd party backup and anti-virus solutions (including the ones provided by AVG, CA, EMC, IBM, McAfee, Symantec and F-Secure)
Support for iSCSI inside the containers (a container can be an Initiator)
Support for IPv6 addresses inside the containers
It’s not entirely clear why Parallels didn’t promote in any way what is still considered its flagship product.
It is true that the large majority of the attention is focused on hardware virtualization, but the company OS virtualization platform should still have a competitive advantage over VMware, Citrix and Microsoft hypervisors in the hosting industry, which is well worth some more marketing effort.
We are wondering why Parallels haven't been shouting from the rooftops. This is a game changer.

I could not successfully upgrade glib-it's in use.
Sendmail was active..and using the library..and preventing me from upgrading.
Sadly...this simply may not be possible on my remote vps.
Does bash and ssh use glib? If could shut down everything that was using it..I have a chance at pulling this off.

I'm rather new to Windows dedicated servers and would like to know which Anti Virus to use for a Windows dedicated server?
What other security measures do I need to take on the windows server as well?
Been hosting with Linux servers for years, one would almost expect that a security on a Windows server is "second nature", but I have some doubts about the security of these servers. We'll be using Windows 2003 standard & Windows 2003 Web edition.

I have tried copy files from Linux server to Windows Server using WinSCP3 and it was so fast.
I am not sure who to copy files as well from Windows to Windows with same speed. I tried to use RDC between the Windows Servers and share one drive. But it wasn't fast as WinSCP3.

The minimum requirements that I am seeking for is that it must be a Windows 2000 or Windows XP machine with at least 1024 MB of DDR PC3200 RAM and at least a single-core 2 GHz CPU whether it be AMD or Intel (something suitable for a gameserver and webserver combo), 40GB SATA/RAID Harddrive, and a Full Duplex 100 Mbit port with plenty of bandwidth to run a 32-Player 66tic CSS Server.
The price range that I seek is between $60 to $120 per month.

I don't use anything like active directory to manage my windows servers. I just manage them individually.
I need to make a change to terminal services configuration on all of them. I don't want to login to each one and manually edit it.
How the hell can I do this in Windows?
In Linux i could knock up a script in about 5 minutes with expect that would login to every single one and make the change i wanted.

But my Plesk's license allows to use MS SQL Servers.
This began to happen after upgrading Plesk 11 to 12.
In psa Database, in DatabaseServers table it appears. If I delete and add back into Plesk, it shows me no error, but neither added to the database servers.

I currently have a server (Xeon 1x5310, 4gb RAM, 4x500gb hdd in Raid 10) with Windows 2003. Now do to a project I'm looking at installing Windows 2008 and upgrading to 2x5310 and 16gb of RAM on my server.
I'm looking to create a virtualized test environment for development of a new web service I'm working on. What I'm looking to develop right now is 2 file servers, 3 web servers, 3 MS SQL database servers and 1 DNS server (would prefer but not sure if hardware can handle it. Virtualization would be ideal as this is very similar to what we believe will we have when we launch the service.
I have a few questions I'm hoping you might be able to answer:
1) With the upgraded hardware specs, should it be able to handle the load if I assign each virtual entity 1 core with 2gb of RAM each?
2) I would like to create each of the multiple servers in a cluster (ie cluster of webservers) as this is how it will be in production. But, I've never worked with clusters before so:
a) where can I learn about clustering windows 2008 servers?
b) is this possible to do in a virtualized environment?
3) How does MS work the licensing? I want to have each server running Windows 2008 and 2-3 of them running SQL Server 2005.
a) Do they charge extra for each virtualized server?
b) Does this mean I have to purchase 3 complete copies of SQL Server or is there a way I can pay a low license fee for use in a non-commercial, non-production environment?
4) Does anyone see any problems with this setup or have any suggestions for me?
* I do have money available to spend on a good solution, so if you have suggestions that cost please let me know. I just thought virtualization would be the way to go as the project will be in development for at least a year with no public access.
** I realize that Hyper-V hasn't been released yet (that I know of) so information on it might be limited
