DoubleM Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 (edited) Long time virtual hosting user, now am considering using TCH for my company's dedicated hosting needs. A few questions first: 1) On the managed versus unmanaged FAQ page there is a line for only managed that says: Secure Server with Firewall. What does that mean exactly? Are unmanaged servers not behind a firewall? 2) Dedicated servers use the WHM like reseller accounts, right? So multiple domain names can be managed and allocated resources, right? 3) As stated in the differences FAQ, only in the fully managed package are services restarted when needed. For the unmanged, how are these services restarted? Through cPanel? Or is there shell access for the admin? 4) Hard drive space states: 160GB x 2. Is this a RAID 1 setup for backup redundancy? Or RAID 0 setup for speed and actually 320GB of space? Thank you. -Marc Edited September 5, 2007 by DoubleM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Andy Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 1) On the managed versus unmanaged FAQ page there is a line for only managed that says: Secure Server with Firewall. What does that mean exactly? Are unmanaged servers not behind a firewall? Both managed and unmanaged have the same firewall / disk space / eystems etc. in them 2) Dedicated servers use the WHM like reseller accounts, right? So multiple domain names can be managed and allocated resources, right? Correct 3) As stated in the differences FAQ, only in the fully managed package are services restarted when needed. For the unmanged, how are these services restarted? Through cPanel? Or is there shell access for the admin? On a dedicated server you can do it either via SSH on whm, you have access to both. 4) Hard drive space states: 160GB x 2. Is this a RAID 1 setup for backup redundancy? Or RAID 0 setup for speed and actually 320GB of space? You could set it up as RAID. Our default setup for dedicated servers is two separate disks with one acting as a backup - but open a ticket with your requirements.

DoubleM Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Thanks Andy. But why is "Secure Server With Firewall" checked for Managed and not for Unmanaged? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Guru Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 The firewall is a software based firewall that we provide on all our managed servers. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
