Hi Lee Evans! That is a very good post. Once one demonstrates the competence you speak of in this outline, there does remain four other 'reasons' for posting. A. Am I insane, who can bring this idea down? B. Fellowship with those of like mind or intent. C. More research, especially of venders. D. What is the market doing? ========= I note however, point 'A' is often well covered here. 'B' is a little rough cause...

How much a machine for 1 AMP?
Published (2009-11-27 13:28:00)
It is still a mystery to me too: 1. Why power with providers mesured in Amps and not in Watts? 2. Based on what mesurement I have to purchase the power - peaked or average? 3. What will happen if I will be too optimistic with power usage of my servers? And if i'll get disconencted and power usage is actually measured at each server, why don't just give us a bill in the end of the mont for KW/hours, just like we have at home? Amps are...

There is also a plugin on the cactiusers.org (or in the cacti forums) that allows you to ease the burden of the server move by doing an automatic backup and later restore of the configuration and items. The name I don't recall.

Though yes, it is still just list pricing, everything is negotiable. :-)

At home, you can take whatever power your servers are using, and double it to take into account air...

You don't need a hardware raid but its recommended. Raid 0 Just makes your drives run faster and raid 1 mirrors each other. Raid 10 Strips and mirrors drives to be fault tolerant for fast and redundant drives.

I would package the drives separately if your that worried about the data. We sometimes double box servers with packing on the inside of the box and between boxes. Also I would check with the DC and see if they can do disk checks on the drives when they get the server. The WHM question depends on the panel your going to use but cPanel will let you install and then do a key update. Directadmin ...

What do you mean they offered a direct interconnect? That sounds kind of odd. Maybe they offered you some kind of DoS protection for $100? Have you tried calling them? I've known Victor for a few years and I have dealt with both Victor & Jon in the past, and they've both gone above and beyond to help me out.

Hey,
Seems like a good deal for PHX. Might be worth checking out Atjeu or Infinitie Networks too.

That is a cost of ~$7.30/mbps before taxes and fees, plus install charge, plus xconnect fee (pretty likely). You are also capped on speed.
Why not just purchase transit from a facility?

When using tower servers it is cheaper to procure a system; however it takes up a lot of floor space hence this is only ideal mostly for providers who own their facility and where space isn't an issue.
Rack mount servers take up less floor space which is great but it is a tad bit expensive to procure a system.

This is really quite a worry! Especially that it has taken this long and
you still have not received your server back. Do you know whether or not

This generally refers to the amount of data you can transfer per month using the 95th percentile calculation. Depending on the usage pattern you'll get roughly 300 GB worth of data transfer during the billing period for each 1Mbps allocation. This varies and I would recommend reading up on it: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/wiki/95th_percentile
This has nothing to do with the port speed of ...

Have you considered buying a refurbished/used Cisco router? That could possibly do the trick for you depending on your client's budget.

Depending on what upgrades you're going for, the R610 is an attractive option. An upgraded R410 or R210 is encroaching on the R610's territory - except the R610 is a much better server in every way.
R200 pricing seems to have rocketed in the last two weeks in preparation for the R210 launch yesterday, but so far as we're not really impressed in terms of value for money. Maybe once we get our ...

So I've read a bunch of threads that say 'How many amps will a server configured like so take?'
How about a thread that says 'For 1 amp, you could a machine like so'?
I'd be interested in knowing how people have machines configured (either at idle, or under a reasonable load) that measure out at 1 amp, especially if it was measured with the Kill-a-Watt meter.
List processors (type ...
