I have a VPS. And have had an issue both when it was 1Gig and now I recently downgraded it to 768m, because I am moving some sites to a dedicated.
However, the part I am having trouble grasping is that when I look at graphs from Munin, it will typically always show 200-400MB free memory (and free -m and top agrees with munin), but Munin shows 'committed' memory that is above the total Ram on the VPS and once the 'committed' ram exceeds the VPS limit, processes start failing.
So, why is 'committed' memory exceeding the RAM on my VPS, when Munin, free -m and top all show there is free memory available?
Code: root@server [~]# free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 768 449 318 0 0 0 -/+ buffers/cache: 449 318 Swap: 0 0 0 Here's a graph that munin produces that shows the 'committed' memory exceeding the total memory. [url]
I'm having an issue with what I believe is Apache. Things will be running nicely, then all of a sudden things will just 'blow up'. Apache seems to fork a bunch of new processes, and it starts ripping into the memory. I've had it essentially eat through all the free memory and swap, and the system will then freeze up as there's no more memory. This is a CentOS server running CPanel, the configuration had been up and running for a long time without problems then this suddenly started happening.
Simplehelix offers a 128/256 bit RapidSSL Certificate for just $99.95/year. In addition, this certificate comes with a year of dedicated IP address with free installation.
I just got a new server Dual E5520 with 6GB RAM, SAS 15k rpm raid10. It's running well. However, the memory usage is just around 2.5GB, even when I have more traffic. Here is the kernel info

Any idea that we can put more content into memory?
I have a 512mb DV server with Mediatemple, which I am running 24 (ish) domains off (most of them static websites) and a teamspeak server. I would say MAX theres 10 users online at a time)
Now, I know its running out of memory because i get frequent QoS Alerts in plesk (kmemsize is apparently the memory size):

I have attached my results (when I did top).
My questions are:
1. Should I be expecting to be out of memory running what I am?
2. Is there a way to see the problem domains (memory wise)?
3. Are there any ways I can reduce the memory? (I have followed this already: [url]
4. Where is the memory usage coming from (I am finding it very hard to understand TOP)
I cancelled a VPS ages, ago, and they stopped charging me, but it's still up, and I can use it. I emailed them saying they hadn't stopped it, but they haven't replied in 2 days. Should I just keep using it?
Think I might just set up a CS server and leave it
I've made my first website and I'm trying to find web hosting that is free and that it will also allows me to transfer my files through ftp directly through an ftp server. (ftp.example.com)
I've tried using the one for freewebpage.org but it doesn't work.. I tried it using port 21, 22, and 80 in both frontpage and filezilla and they didn't work.. I guess it's the ftp server that isn't really working, or the information they provide is inaccurate.
The buffer has 2375 MB of free ram. However this is a heavy mysql server. I want the empty ram be used by mysql so it becomes faster.
We are currently moving to a 8GB ram server, and the free ram will be around 7 GB if we use the exact same configuration. I want the free ram to be 1 GB at most, why pay for 8 GB ram if I'm going to use a fraction of it?
What optimizations should I attempt?
I know about harddisk I/O bottlenecks, I have two SATA drives in the system, and a SAS drive dedicated to mysql, that's all we can afford currently.
All mysql databases are for SMF forums, and currently using MyISAM tables. Switching to another storage engine is a possibility, if it won't create problems in restarts and hot backups.
i have seen one website ad on internet, offering free web hosting for 1 year (500 mb) with the purchase of any domain name.
I would like to confirm. Is these types of Ads are original or they are offering a fake offer (hidden cost). Because as i know, the domain hosting cost is very high as compare to buy a domain...
I am after a free webhosting site that will let me run cgi scripts... I have tried so many sites that are meant to support these scripts, but none of them work...
Does anyone know of a free site that will let me use cgi?
what free DNS hosting service to use? So far I have had experience with the following services:
Xname.org - fine, admin-wise kind of DNS zone management. Con: it is relatively often offline (DoS/whatever0
EditDns.net - fine, but it has several times rolled abck their DB state, wiping out my records. I can't name that a rliable service.
EveryDns.net - fine, quick, easy to manage. Con: I have tried to donate, to have limits removed, but my donation was never recorded, all the attempts to contact the administration failed, as well.
let TOTL=$GUAR/256 let KMMB=$KMEM/1048576 let PVMB=$PRIV/256 let USED=$KMMB+$PVMB let FREE=$TOTL-$USED if [ "$FREE" -gt "0" ]; then let UPER=$USED*100/$TOTL let FPER=100-$UPER else let UPER="100" let FPER="0" fi echo "VPS Memory:" echo " Total: $TOTL mb Used: $USED mb (${UPER}%) Free: $FREE mb (${FPER}%)" It gives Total: 512 mb Used: 482 mb (94%) Free: 30 mb (6%)
Why such huge difference??
Also "top" command shows top - 02:44:04 up 1 day, 9:55, 2 users, load average: 1.35, 1.04, 0.94
Is that good for a a VPS with 512 RAM? (The site has extremely high traffic)
I think this information can be useful for you. If you plan to get your website, here is one good free web hosting provider to choose - 000webhost.com
They provide hosting absolutely free, there is no catch. You get 250 MB of disk space and 100 GB bandwidth. They also have cPanel control panel which is amazing. Moreover, there is no any kind of advertising on your pages.
5GB disk space 20GB monthly bandwidth 10 MySQL databases PHP support
Perfect for sites that aren't bandwidth intensive. Anyway, you can't beat the price, particularly if you need to host lots of small sites. I'm currently using the service to host articles and link pages, and it's working out nicely.
Me and a few friends decided to start a web site but we don't have a very large member base at the moment so we are on free forum hosting. I thought the next logical step would be to get some free or very inexpensive website hosting that offered a domain name. So I got gfboards.net from Godaddy.com and tried out their free hosting.
What is really bothering me is that their ad that they put on the top of every page apparently "interferes" with the registration images on PHPBB and SMF forums. I really don't know a lot about web hosts but this just sounds fishy to me. Should I switch web hosts?
does anyone know of anyone offering free co location as far as bandwidth a mere 100GB would do it just fine on 10Mbps for all i care i just need something to host my server on thats better than cable i have a web store thats just starting but doing ok for itself it isn't doing well enough for me to pay the in "Most cases" extreme price for hosting services if there is any web host out there that would be willing to donate a free 1U space for my server even if only for a six month to a year period I'd be great full
I run a web design business in South Florida. I currently have an account at ThePlanet to allow me to provide web hosting services to my customers... this is what happened last night.
I received a phone call from an old customer asking me if I was considering changing my computer, i said "well, maybe". My customer then asked me to go an pickup a present. The present was a DELL PowerEdge 2950 server with 6 SCSI (SAS) hard drives 133 gigs each, 2 64-bit Intel-Xeon Quad-Core processors, 4 Gigs FBD RAM, server include an Integrated Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) 2.0 management controller (with SMASH Command Line Protocol), plus an optional DRAC 5 remote management card with continuous video and Active Directory integration for robust remote server management, Red Hat Enterprise edition with 3 years of support, mounting rack, wheels and cables.
What a present huhh? OK, I'm really excited cause I know this is a top of the line server but i also know that this isn't that easy. I guess if i plug the server to the Internet it will load the IPMI management Controller and try to connect to DELL to activate the product registration or something. My customer said that he was paying a favor he owed me and that the server was too much for him. He got it on an erroneous delivery along with a bunch of boxes and he wanted me to have it since he doesn't know what to do with it. This is not like he did something wrong, he actually asked the delivery guy and his answer was to wait two weeks to see if someone claims it... after the two weeks he said that the package was already paid up to that point by the insurance and if nobody has claimed it means that the package was his possession.
Since i manage remotely my host through a control panel i don't have enough experience to build the infrastructure to provide the connection, so here are my questions...
I guess (i don't know you can correct me) that all software and licenses are pretty much unusable, right?
I cannot even think in keeping the Redhat, right?
What else should I need besides the broadband connection in order to run it at home?... i mean router type-brand-specs, firewall type-brands-specs, etc.
Do you know of any good-cheap-quality High speed connection that i can use on south Florida to provide connection to the server?
