I wrote a script to test the integrity of my DNS and run it from time to time on my server...
I just ran it today and it discovered I suddenly have 5 domains with SOA-records that doesn't point to itself. They point to the secondary nameserver.
They are records that exist for years and were for sure correct before (I know this because of that script).
If I do a "restore defaults" it isn't corrected and if I switch to slave and then back to master it doesn't change either...
The file /var/named/run-root/var/obfuscated.com is updated, but the slave-DNS stays in that file...
The only way I'm able to correct it is by deleting the NS-record with the slave DNS and adding it again.
I assume there's some mechanism that scans the NS-records and then decides to make that one the SOA. This has always worked fine... also on this server.
I am going to be ending my service as a host provider, and I need to transfer all of my clients to a new host.
Many of my clients sites were written 3-4 years ago in php while global vars was still off, and so many of the sites might not function correctly if I just pop them to a new host.
My first solution would be to bypass the php .ini file with a public_html/ based ini that would override any newer server settings.
Does anyone know of a good host that could take my clients? And also support the php version locally to the shared account?
I need a host that is reliable, and honest.
Am I going about this the right way?
I am open to any suggestions or advice on this.
I should probably add, all of my clients pay on an annual basis from $89-$140. None of my clients run video sites or any heavy media stuff.
Dedicated server has 2 HDD but I am not going to pay another $25/month for the hardware RAID solution (already stretched too far).
My plan is to install FreeBSD 6 and use Gmirror to establish a raid-1 "soft" mirror.
Advantages: Entire drive is mirrored including the OS. Drives can be remotely inserted or removed from the mirror set using a console command so its possible to uncouple the mirror and perform software updates on a single drive then re-establish the mirror only after the updates have proved successful.
Disadvantages: Lower I/O than hardware solution (not a problem for me) others???
I rarely see people consider software raid for a tight-budget server and I am wondering why? Could it be that other OS's dont have a solution as good as gmirror? Or is it just that crappy soft-raid in the past has left a bitter taste in admins mouths? Or perhaps admins need the extra I/O of hardware?
if you use a site monitoring service (or two) do you need to setup monitors for each website/domain on your VPS or can you just monitor the primary services on the VPS?
I have a windows vps and I want to monitor my bandwidth. How can I do this? I tried using a program called DU Meter but it's counting bandwidth on all users on that node and not mine =[
I want to monitor my application to make sure it is 24x7 uptime, if there is anything interrupt, I will be notified by email/SMS right away. There are several web monitoring service, but they all monitor ports, not application. I have bad experience, like, althoguh the web server is alive, but the application is already dead.
So, I want to monitor application instead of monitor a port. Anybody knows where I may find this kind of service?
What does everyone use to monitor their servers? I've come across a pretty impressive service from Panopta but haven't head of them before. Has anyone tried them out?
Does any one know a bandwidth monitor that shows me stats and which programs or Ports and or Servers are using bandwidth and how much they are using in real time?
I see a lot of web hosts that link to webhostingstuff.com which tracks the uptime of their main page. i would like to offer a similar service, where i track and list the uptime of hosts. can anyone point me in the proper direction for this? is there a particular script that I can purchase? how is this done?
Don't know if this is the right place to ask for this but here goes.
I have a 20U rack space and i use 4U of this space (1U + 2U servers and a 1U switch).
There is a 20Mbit internet connection on a 100Mbit network.
But here comes my problem, some friends have there servers in my rack space to, There is 12 servers that are my friends and i want to know how much traffic they use.
I want to know how many GB traffic they use to i can charge them (they don't pay right now).
2 of my friends servers must max take 50gb traffic!
My server has a tyan thunder 8kse (s2892) motherboard, and i'm looking for some script to monitor it. Unfortunately, tyan only offers such applications for windows. So, how can i monitor the motherboard in linux? Or preferably, webbased.
We have a few customers who have multiple C classes with us and we are wondering how most of you monitor for blacklisting.
We currently randomly pick a few IPS and check them once a month but this is not very thorough. We were wondering if there is a program out there that can check say a /20 automatically once a month or atleast something we can initiate an automated check once a month with?
I am wondering what services it is best to monitor with Nagios which I've installed on my Centos 5.3 VPS. I wish to monitor and understand all essential services of the VPS itself at this stage but, generally, to make the best possible use of Nagios as an analytical tool as well as basic monitoring notifications, etc.
I already have a rough idea based on the main services being run. But I imagine there may be more to this than meets the eye, in particular, in view of any potential performance cost, etc.
I am especially keen to obtain as detailed a picture as possible concerning performance related criteria with a mind to indicating possible improvements that could be made.
I would like to monitor traffic on IP based on my debian server. I have 16 IPs on my server? Is there any good tool or any tool which gives GUI display?
We have a website that uses php include. It is specified in .htaccess to parse all html file to parse for php so php include can be executed.
We don't know the exact cause but our Addhandler line in .htaccess gets keep commented by someone or something and include file (footer) does not show up from time to time. I was told cpanel update inserts the comment but I am not sure.
My question is:
1. How can I prevent this from happening?
2. If it gets modified, how can I get notification?
