Burst.net Connectivity

Sep 17, 2008

is anyone else having trouble with burst.net at the moment? from two locations, i'm having problems where anything that will elicit a large response just hangs indefinitely. i can ping my server just fine, i can shell into it... if i do "top" or "dmesg" or anything else that might dump back more than a few lines of response at a time, the ssh session hangs. i can do "ps x" as a regular user, because i only have two processes running. "ps ax" will hang ssh.

none of my websites work, and i can't get on the burst.net website from either location. i tried calling but no matter what sequence i try for (even tried reboots) i can't get ahold of a live person, but then again it is almost midnight.

anyone else experiencing this?

Which Is Better: 1152mb W/ No Burst Or 768mb With 2048mb Burst

Oct 15, 2007

I am new to VPS and am trying to get my head around it. What I am trying to figure out now are the pros and cons of Guaranteed and Burstable memory.

Assuming everything else is equal, and both options are in the budget, and that there is a requirement (at least at times) for more than 768mb of RAM, which option is better:

1152mb Guaranteed (SLM)

or

768mb Guaranteed / Burstable to 2048mb

Obviously, a big factor would be whether or not their is RAM available to burst to, and as I understand it, that is completely dependant on the server, other VPS's running, number of VPS's, etc.

However, what I am trying to figure out is which approach is typically better. If for the same money you can get 768mb w/2048mb burst or 1152mb SLM w/no burst which is the best option.

If my current requirements are important, then I listed them in a thread titled: "If I go with VPS would vB performance suffer greatly if I add multiple sites to VPS?"

I can't truely link to it, because I have less than five posts, but here is a quote of that thread, so you can hit the button in the quote to go there:

Limited Or No Connectivity

Mar 11, 2008

im trying to remotely install WS2003 EE R2 on a dedicated server I have purchased and have an issue. I'm installing it via KVM IP which is cool

however, after installing the network card drivers, I get a "There is no or limited connectivity" etc... so I cannot access the internet or anything on that box.

what do I do from here? how can I make the card work? It is configured to obtain the IP Address automatically as well as using the default DNS. I do have 2 IP Addresses "assigned" to me/my account but dont believe I need to configure them in WS2003?

Dedicated With Top Connectivity

Nov 25, 2008

I have tested so many compagny I can't even remember and with all of thoses compagny my customers had lagg pikes or this kind of things.

I am hosting a gameserver service which required a top connectivity , most of my customers are in europe and I looked for the best dedicated provider in europe.

I tested OVH , ngz-server , bestserver.eu and much more but it was the same problem.

If someone know a good dedicated server provider in europe using premium bandwidth with good carier and not only with peerings .

I have looked a bit at serverboost.nl they seems serious but I have no feedback about them.

If you have any provider with a top connectivity it would help me a lot to choose what deserve my customers.

A DDos protection is a must also (not for bigg ddos but littles one ).

Connectivity Issues To VPS Server From Certain Locations

May 27, 2008

We have a VPS with Media Temple. Their data center is somewhere on the westcoast. From time to time we have severe issues to connect from our Brooklyn/NY locations. We experienced the connectivity issue from 2 physical locations. Doing a tracert gave us a good result.

There are usually 4-8 users using our shop admin for order processing or the shopping cart for manual order entry. While they are having problems connecting from there, I can connect just fine from Calgary/AB, Canada. Most of the time no issues at all.

how to debug that?

Intermedia Hosted Sharepoint Connectivity

Feb 28, 2008

Is anyone having a problem with Intermedia's Hosted Sharepoint (WSS 3.0) Service? For the past couple days I've had sporadic service. Finally today, None of my pc's can get to my hosted sharepoint site. I even tried my site from 3 other locations, all with different ISP's, networks, and even geographic locations. (2 Corporate spots in OKC, Tulsa, Dallas).

Anyways their tech support says they can log in fine, and it's just a problem with my ISP. (I tried to emphasis the fact that it's 4 different ISP's all having the same issue).

Ping's good, I even get an authentication window. Just when I put in credentials I get The connection was interrupted.

Anyways phone support could only offer to open a ticket for me. Can anyone else using Intermedia Hosted Sharepoint let me know if they too are having problems? I realize Hosted Email is probably working fine.

1) All VPS hosting services emphasize their high level of network connectivity (Tier 1 etc.) but how to learn about this topic and choose the fastest service?

2) What is really the state of the art and fastest network connectivity available?

3) Is there a map/list of the biggest US network hubs and which web hosts are connected to them?

4) Is the old ping response time the best metric to verify a web host speed connectivity?

5) Is there an indipendent and unbiased website that reviews and report web hosts ping response times?

Experience With Savvis And Net2EZ Hosting And Connectivity

Jun 30, 2008

I am interested in finding out any experiences people have had in the last year or so with Savvis or Net2EZ.

I'm primarily interested in experience with the IP connectivity they provide, as well as their co-location, reliability, etc.

I have experience with Savvis from quite a while ago, but presumably that experience may no longer apply.

It's likely we will end up buying transit from multiple carriers and deal with BGP, etc.

But I am also interested in hearing about Savvis's Diverse Internet availability product.

As for Net2EZ, I'd be primarily interested in hearing about their colo services and if anyone has had experience connecting to Carriers in the next door Equinix facility.

Out Of Band Connectivity- IPMI- Serial Console- KVM Over IP

Sep 23, 2008

When you can't access your server via SSH or Remote Desktop, what do you use to fix the problem without filing a ticket?

IPMI?
Serial console?
KVM over IP?
Dial up connection?
Backup network connection?
Get up and walk to the server? :-)

If you had a choice between them, what did you pick and why?

Does your dedicated server provider give it to you for free, or do you have to pay extra for it?

Tools To Measure Server Connectivity Times

Nov 6, 2007

I've got a housed server within my customer's datacenter. I consider application runs ok, but it goes very slow.

I consider it's due to their connection (DSL) and installed another provisional server with a simple "Hello World" and no traffic. I'm to install the same server within another datacenter, and would like to find an external tool to certify connectivity times.

Do you know any of these tools? I'm not searching tools like 'Apache AB' or 'HP httperf', but public online services.

Prefered Method Of Network Redundancy (Server Connectivity)

May 16, 2007

There are several methods of offering network path redundancy. The basic decision for me has come down to:

Do it at Layer 2
Do it at Layer 3

At the moment we have layer 2 redundancy to each server. 2NICs on the server up with one having the IPs for apache/mysql/etc. each nic going into a seperate switch and the switches connected together, with 2 routers running VRRP to handle the gateway.
Everything is Vlaned.

So basicaly the switch redundancy is done by spanning tree and the IP redundancy is done with a process on the router/server to move the IP to the other router/server NIC if there is an issue.

I am thinking about going with 2 fully seperate networks. in differant subnets. where each router would have a gateway. the routers would talk to each other and they would speak OSPF or ISIS with the servers. This way I would move hosting onto loopback IPs on the servers and those loopback IPs would be advertised to the both routers through seperate networks.
Again everything would be Vlanned.

This has the advantage of getting rid of spanning tree which has caused issues from time to time. It would keep redundancy up and we could standardize on the routing daemon ran on the servers allowing all of the various OSs we run to have the same basic config for network redundancy. Where now each OS tends to have its own solution. This would make life easier from a config and troubleshooting point of view.

Private Data Centers With FCC Satellite Uplink/downlink Connectivity

Does anyone know of a private Data Center with Satellite uplink/downlink connectivity in addition to Fiber?

I know the government depends on them for military purposes, but I was wondering if anyone is aware of a private, FCC liscenced data center with the capability to transmite/host data via satellite in case of disasters, remoteness etc. It seems complimentary for a data center but I haven't heard of it.

Is there any market research on this? What is a good source of information to find out about how many data centers there are, how much revenue they bring in, costs, etc? What is the data center bible?

SLM Vs Burst RAM

Oct 10, 2009

Could someone explain in layman's terms a point on RAM for VPS? I always understood that you are allocated an amount of RAM with each plan. For example, 256MB on most lower packages. You are then allowed to reach some limit in case their is some spike and memory is required. That is called Burst RAM limit/amount. Like 1GB. I asked about this to my new host and they responded below. I'm not following it.

Quote:

SLM is a method of using dedicated physical RAM (RSS) versus a guaranteed (unknown) / burst (VSIZE). SLM is only accounting physical memory usage and you are silently swapping on the host (the VSIZE) -- in short, if you are running out of RAM it is because your VPS is physically trying to use more than your dedicated RAM limit.

SLM implements a 2nd-level out of memory (OOM) manager. In the event a VPS uses all of its physical RAM SLM will first delay the execution of processes to wait for more RAM to become available. After this it intelligently decides which processes to kill to maintain a running system.

On the kernel level it decides itself what should be preempted to swap in the system and which data is most rarely used. This is more efficient from overall performance point of view than having a separate swap space assigned to each VPS and used when VPS has exceeded their RAM limit which cause disk I/O bandwidth which is used for swapping is a scare resource, therefore it is not worth swapping out something when there is global RAM available still.

Nocster/Burst

Apr 28, 2009

It had an Abuse Incident over the last 24 hours and missed the deadline they gave to clean it up. Being in Australia the time differences can make it difficult to always catch an Abuse Incident. Anyway so the server is disconnected and we have to pay a reconnection fee, ok fair enough.

As soon as the server went offline I became aware of the issue and contacted their support.

They said I need to pay the Abuse Invoice, so I said ok and went to my Client Area and there was no Abuse Invoice. So I tell the technician that there is no invoice in my account, he says, oh ok there must be a billing problem and passes it over to "Customer Service".

Hours later there is still no response from customer service and my server is still offline.

I shouldn't have my server OFFLINE while waiting for them to sort out their billing problem. Them getting their Abuse Invoice paid is NOT A TIME CRITICAL matter.

A server outage is a TIME CRITICAL MATTER.

Here I am still waiting and nothing is being done, my server is still OFFLINE. I have no problem paying the Abuse Invoice, but the server outage just goes on and on because they can't seem to generate the Abuse Invoice that they require me to pay.

Expereince With Burst.Net!

May 17, 2008

I do alot of reading of select forums and contribute here and there, I am a huge contributor on Digital point. With lots of Itraders. I came here to try and find some info as to what was going on with burst.net when I stumbled across the merged thread here and started seeing what was going on.

I don't want to say it's typical but more often than not these days the server have been more miss than hit. Coupled with the fact that things like RAM upgrades carry a setup cost and a higher than avereage monthly fee. 512mb costs more than what 1GB does at most hosts.

On top of that, the upgrade time is 1-3 DAYS not hours, DAYS. My Ip address have to change for a bandwidth upgrade which caused 24 hours of downtime as the DNS propagated again.

Server was suspended 9 hours into an abuse report when it is promised 24 hours to solve the issue and I had agreed that the account needed to be suspended. We went back and forth with them about replying to the ticket that referenced the abuse issue. I was told that I needed to reply to the ticket. If they had bothered to look at the ticket themselves then they would have seen that I had a 3 to one ratio of my posts to theirs in trying to get this solved. $50 abuse fee talk about nickel and dimeing a guy. I know, I have heard it before, read the tos, aup, billing, and privacy policies. It's all in there somewhere but you just get to that point where if they charge you one more little BS fee then I'm going to go postal. Plus they can't keep their end of the bargain up when it comes to the network. Received a cpu / mobo upgrade expected upgrade time48-72 hours, after it was all said and done now the server sits still with 4GB or ram that it can not full recognize. On a happier note I did have other servers there (that's not the happy part) I knew in my gut that something had to be done. I've spent alot of time getting quotes with other providers, I even added one to my contact list from here on WHT, it was sales@hivelocity.net. I got several quotes from them and never pulled the trigger on a configuration on any of them, I tried out a few other smaller hosting companies with no luck and finally after a month or two of Dave asking how I was doing on a daily basis, I decided to go with a test server. Setup was decent, I had a problem with my ip when I first signed up, but the support staff is great, no hassles no fuss, no paying to upgrade, unless there is a price difference, NO DOWNTIME, NO ABUSE FEES (never had an abuse case yet) but it's not in any of their policies that I can read. All the chips seem to have fallen into place for me when I signed up with them.

I call Dave on a regular basis I get calls from him every so often. My server is up and better than ever. I get answers to my questions that are beyond the normal realm of technical support which I find odd because I see all over WHT that they are an unmanaged host. There are no per incident fees or nickle or dimeing. I was told by a tech that there would be a $65 per hour fee to install a 3rd party piece of software that they did not support but that to me is in the same realm of taking your car to the shop when you want a performance part installed. You want it done right and you want it quick. I still have a server with burst that I am almost finished with. I'm glad I had the courage to follow my instinct when it came time to switch or else I would be completely stuck. I ended up with burst because I was re-acuired through a reseller named Vagu. I am starting to see that there were problems between Vaguhost and Burst some time ago, about the time of that switch is when I started having second thoughts that I may need to add another provider. I am happy referring people to Hivelocity and I also resell their services. I am not too familiar with the other account representatives for Hivelocity, I believe that there are 4 total, but if you have been left high and dry by burst then give them a shout. I believe that one person even called themselves a "refugee."

To Swap Or To Burst

May 11, 2007

I'm planning to get a small VPS (128 MB).

I've come across a XEN based plan that offers additional 256MB swap space, and a few others Virtuozzo based plans that offer bursting capability (some even upto 8GB).

Which would be the better option?

Also, in Virtuozzo, will SLM allocation be significantly more beneficial than UBC for a small VPS?

Another question ... DirectAdmin officially claims to be able to run on a minimum of 64MB RAM. How would it perform on a 128 MB VPS ?
I'm not really looking to do much, only to host a few (5-6) small sites along with some other non-webhosting applications (which is the reason for getting a VPS instead of a reseller).

I've seen most people suggest atleast 256MB for DirectAdmin, but that is beyond my budget. (I'm also seriously considering the option of employing vi as a control panel to further conserve my limited resources)

whm/cpanel included
ddos protection network level
basic support

on other hand webnx offer is $99
