Moving A Large 4gig Website Between 2 Dedicated Servers

Sep 11, 2005

I'm moving a large, 4 gig site between 2 servers (both have cpanel... if that's an option). Is there a way to do it quickly and correctly? How would I transfer such a large site?

Hardware: Db Servers, Web Servers, File Servers. Cpu, Ram, Disk

Jan 20, 2007

I have a lot of questions here so if you can't answer them all I understand. even pointing me somewhere where I could get the answers would be appreciated; hardware sites focusing on server hardware, forums focusing on such, etc.

we plan to have three different types of servers:

- db server (self explanatory. mysql. for forums, mysql driven sites.)

- file server (lots of files around ~2-10MB, consistant 70mbps right now, but we want more room for upgrades. needs a LOT of storage room.)

- web server (lots of php files, but also static things like plain html, images, etc. also includes all misc services for the setup-- dns, etc.)

could I be given a rundown for which hardware each of the three should have? I don't need specifics, even just knowing that more ram is important here while cpu doesn't matter as much, or that the fastest disks available are a must, etc would all be valuable info for me. despite that, I certainly wouldn't mind specific hypothetical hardware configs.

for the database server I'm assuming the more ram the better. not entirely sure about the cpu? also not positive on disks...

for the fileserver, how much ram would be practical or useful? disk io will be an issue I'm because plenty of people will be pulling files at once so the disk needs to read from multiple places. scsi (and even raptors) are not an option as we need 750GB+ of space on a reasonable budget. more ram will take some load of of the disks, but how much is neccessary / reasonable?

for the web server I'm assuming cpu first, then ram, but it'll likely need less ram than the db server?

I'm more lost on the disks than anything. scsi on the fileserver is not an option under any circumstances due to $/GB. for the db & web server I'm willing to pay for scsi if the performance increase really does warrant the extra money, but I'd like to be convinced before shelling it out. if you have benchmarks geared at server hardware when it comes to disks I'd really appreciate it.

also, what's the best way to network these together when colocated? each one with a dual gigabit ethernet port and then the communications go to and from the router?

SQL Too Large

Apr 5, 2007

I'm having a lengthy issue where my databases are to large to import in phpmyadmin using plesk. Unfortunately I dont have direct access to phpmyadmin and can only access it by DB user through plesk.

I have tried to edit php.ini in the following locations:

upload_max_filesize = changed this to 64M

post_max_size = changed this to 32M

maximum_execution_time = changed this to 300

maximum_input_time = changed this to 300

Why am I still not able to import my DB's which are about 8MB each?

VPS With Large RAM, Or Dedicated

May 20, 2008

I have a website which has about 20K users, and now I am using VPS plan at LunarPages.

However, I have encountered a trouble of out-of-memory. Although I have configured my Apache and MySQL carefully, the 512M memory is not enough. Therefore, the users' expirence is not good these days because my site is very unstable.

I contacted Lunarpages, asking them whether I can upgrade my VPS to bigger RAM, but they said the ONLY way to get a RAM bigger than 512M is to upgrade to dedicated hosting plan.

The following are some stats of my website:

Total Members: 20k
Online at the same time: max 600, average 300

The Lunarpages VPS plan:
www[dot]lunarpages[dot]com/virtual-private-server/
disk space: 20G
RAM: 512M
price: $42 / mo

Now I am not sure whether to migrate to didicated hosting plan, because currently, the main problem is just the size of RAM. Other resources e.g (CPU, network etc. ) are not my bottleneck. So I think it seems not worthwhile for me to migrate to the dedicated hosting plan with a doubled price (even more, almost 3x if I need 1G RAM), just for a larger size of RAM.

Can you guys give some suggestions to choose a VPS provider for my site?
The factors taken into my consideration include:

* RAM size: at least (1G for peak, 768M garantee). The bigger, the better. Nice if can choose larger size when needed.
* price
* bandwidth: 1T/mon?
* easy to upgrade to dedicated host: just in case that one day I will have to use dedicated.
* whether there are coupons for a lower price.

VPS With A Large Amount Of RAM

May 22, 2007

I've been with zone.net for a couple months now, and I have a guaranteed 512MB of memory, which I seem to constantly be hitting, which seems to result in processes being killed and http access vanishing. Growing quite annoying.

I'm looking into moving onto a new provider that can provide more guaranteed RAM for about the same price.

Space isn't a huge deal, I'd do fine with a meager 5GB. Bandwidth I need at least 200GB, but wouldn't mind more.

I'd like to stay managed if possible, as I'm not as well versed in server workings as I should be. Also am in need of cPanel, which I know is a spendy sucker.

My budget is something around $70 a month, and I don't really want to go much higher than that. Still a poor college boy :/

Can anyone suggest such a provider? I've browsed around a lot of the VPS hosts but can't seem to find one that has as much RAM as I need for a decent price. All the ones that seem to have 512MB+ are pretty expensive, and offer a lot more other stuff (space/bandwidth) than I need.

As a final note, the line speed isn't that big of a deal. I'm currently on a 3mbit and am surviving, but going back to a higher speed line would be great

Backing Up Large DB

Jan 17, 2007

Just had a quick question about backing up a large MySQL DB. I have a database that is 50gb with about half a billion entries in it. One table itself is about 40gb, the other 10gb consists of smaller tables.

The problem is, I want to back the database up and be able to keep it LIVE at the same time (as it will fall behind quickly if it's pulled for more than a few hours, as there are somewhere in the area of a million entries an hour, plus other deletions and queries).

Ban A Large Number Of IPs

May 30, 2007

I'm currently using iptables to ban IP addresses from the servers, like:

Code:
iptables -A INPUT -s xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -j DROP
I ran a "spam trap" for the last few months and now I have over 11000 IP addresses who were trying to spam on my website (guestbooks, phpBB and forms) and I want to ban them all (pretty sure bots run from them).

My question - is iptables the way to do it? I mean does banning such a large number of addresses have any significant performance or other issues I should be aware of (except of the fact I may be banning some legitimate traffic)? Is the -A INPUT the way to ban them all or is there a more appropriate way of baning such a number of addresses?

I'm on CentOS 4.5 i686, Apache/1.3.37, Pentium D 930, 2GB RAM.

I wasn't sure where to post this so here goes, I need to migrate a MySQL DB, in the past I have just created an SQL file and used that method (sometimes having to split the SQL file up) but now the DB is about 50 meg and 733,233 records.

Is there an easier way to migrate the Database from one server to another?

Large MSSQL DB Hosting

Large Backup Storage

Feb 9, 2009

I have a website that is approx 50GB, that I essentially would like to take offline for a while. Obviously, while the site is offline, I don't want to be paying for my server.

Can anyone let me know of some options to "store" this mammoth of a site. Downloading it locally is not an option, so it needs to stay in the cloud for the lowest possible price.

Large Apache Domlogs

Jun 18, 2009

to delete and reset the domlogs files from Apache server, as they have become too large, but I want to keep a record of the past few years website stats.

I could download the domlogs files (they look like MS-DOS applications) but once I have I am not sure how to read them, is there some off server application that could open these files? I currently view stats in awstats from cPanel, but the size of the files is causing problems with updating now.

The only thing I can think of doing is taking screenshots of the relevant stats that I want to keep, before deleting the files, but was thinking there must be a better solution than that.

Mod_Security Log Files Too Large

Nov 7, 2008

Linux Fedora 6, Apache 2 with Mod Security, MySQL.

Our mod_sec logs get incredibly large very quickly. In the configuration for mod_security, we have specified logging options as
SecAuditEngine RelevantOnly
SecAuditLogRelevantStatus "^[45]"

but the mod_sec.log gets to almost 10 GB (in a matter of 5-6 days) before it is truncated to mod_sec.log.1 and a new one is created.

Is there a way we can specify that a max size of one log file is 1 GB, for example?
Or another question, how come it gets so huge so quickly? We thought that logging "RelevantOnly" will only display errors / requests that are deemed security risks.

Hosting Large Flv Files

Oct 6, 2008

I have a customer who wants to sell access to videos of conferences he runs.

Each flv vid is approx 1 - 1 1/2 hors long approx 380MB each and there will be about 12 videos per conference.

approx 4 - 8 conferences per year.

My customer suggests 10 - 20 people will buy access to watch each video.

Access to watch the videos will be through a password protected webpage.

issue - the current site hosting company only allow uploads up to 150MB per file.

Can I host the flash videos elsewhere and deliver them through the password protected web page without anyone else being able to see them via server they are hosted on?

This would also reduce the bandwidth going through his current site server.

Large MS SQL 2005 Space

Apr 4, 2008

I have several gigs worth of data which my programmer wants to put into MS SQL 2005. But the last time I check, MS SQL comes in blocks of only a few MB (eg 200MB for $25).

Now if I have 10GB of data, that yould cost me like...thousands?).

One solution is to use mysql which is free of course, but the website is done in ASP.NET. How will this affect performance?

Also, is there any other way which I can purchase SQL 2005 myself? If yes, how much for one domain name?

Large Scale GB Hosting And Other

Aug 27, 2008

I would like to have around 100 Gb with room to expand if possible.

This will be hosting for a radio station, archival material.

I am unsure of where to look, the sites I have seen are pretty small in scale as far as capacity.

Further, I would also like to be able to re-sell this, instead of just setting up a straight account.

Further if at all possible I would like to bundled with some other small hosting packages (wordpress sites) on a reselling basis.

Large File Sizes

Jul 29, 2008

My client's website needs to hold files that are around 60 or 70 MB. The host only allows files up to 10 MB. Is that typical?

Right now I'm linking to a file storage but would rather make the files available from my site without going to a 3rd Party Site. He doesn't want to zip his files either - just to be a straight download.

Moving A Large Website

Oct 19, 2008

I couldn't find a suitable category for this topic, please feel free to move if I made a mistake.

I have a big website.

MySQL Size: 1 GB
Diskspace: 2 GB

It's over loading the server, so I am moving it to a dedicated server.

In the past, basically I would pause the live website (e.g. turn off forum). Move the data, turn everything back on in the new server and then change the nameservers.

But for this website, I don't want to pause the website nor I wish to loose any posts because of DNS propagation. (e.g. user might post data, which is stored in the current server. But then after propagation, the user won't see his post)

Cannot Receive Large Attachments

Jul 4, 2008

My server is running WHM 11.15.0 cPanel 11.18.6-S24739 /
REDHAT Enterprise 4 i686 on standard.

I am using EXIM.

Lately, users on my server have not been able to receive most attachments. E-mails with small attachments, such as an 11,000 byte file, show up just fine. An e-mail from the same person, but with a 560,000 byte attachment will simply never show up, and there is no returned "bounce" message to the sender. It is like the e-mail was never sent.

The odd thing is, e-mails sent to and from e-mail addresses hosted on my server have no trouble sending/receiving large attachments of any size (I have tested up to several megs in size). For example, tom@example.com and joe@another_example.com both have their domains hosted on my server. They can send each other large attachments with no trouble. But, if tom@yahoo.com or tom@gmail.com tries to send a larger attachment to tom@example.com, the e-mail and the attachment never show up.

Things to note:
1) The e-mail accounts are no-where near their storage limits.

2) message_size_limit is not set, so I assume the max attachment limit is the default 50mb.

How To Transfer A Large File

Mar 28, 2008

I have a situation here.

I wanted to transfer a file (about 10GB) from one server to another server. Both server are on the same LAN.

Inside server1, I zipped a folder as file.tar.gz

From server2, I uses wget http://server1.com/file.tar.gz and it says "404 Not Found"

I suspect it won't allow me to download because the file is too big.

Which Cassis Should I Buy For Large Fileservers

Dec 5, 2007

I’ve to buy two new chassis for our redundant storage system. I decided to build my own system.

I looked around to find a good chassis which we can use for the next 3-5 years, the supermicro chassis seems to be the right one. I planed to use a 3Ware Raid Controller with 12x 500GB SATA-II drives in an Raid 6 Array, mirrored with DRBD to a second, identical, system. The System boots from an own Raid Array (Raid 5) with 3 x 120GB Discs on an separate 3Ware Raid Controller.

Now the question is, which chassis, I don’t know if it is better to fit the drives vertically or not.

Here the two chassis:

Ext3 On A Very Large Filesystem

May 23, 2008

We're considering deploying a large server that will have 8x 500GB drives in a RAID-10 config. I intend to use a 3ware 9650SE w/ BBU along with A/B power to each of the PSU's.

My question is... since this will return into a 2TB array/partition, in event of a crash (kernel panic, etc -- I expect a power outage will be very, very rare if at all) what do you guys think the fsck time would be? In my experience a RAID BBU significantly drops it, sometimes to the point of no manual fsck required, but in event of a manual fsck shouldn't the BBU be able to provide more consistent data (less errors) and therefore a much shorter fsck? Maybe just recovering the journal?
