My VPS provder has told me the max server load allowed is 4.0 if i exceeed this my VPS wil be suspended.
How can i use Shoutcast v2 & Centovacast without the load issues???

That's crazy, mine is just the opposite, SHOUTcast2/sc_trans run at a very low loads, on a cheap vps with only 2 CPU's with about 10 streams running -- but Icecast & SHOUTcast1 run @ higher loads -- nothing that would cause the server to crash but higher than SC2
I am not running WHM/Cpanel though, if Centova v3 is the only thing running on your server you do not need WHM/cPanel, it would save you the license fee and use less of your server resources.

Hi MyautoDj
Just a question how would you install CentovaCast without cpanel/whm ie;
1.)Setting up Mysql Database
2.)Setting up Email Address
George
-
(1) How to Install MYSQL (I just name the DB centova and user also centova
create database centova;
grant usage on *.* to centova@localhost identified by 'password';
grant all privileges on centova.* to centova@localhost ;
mysql_install_db --user=mysql
also, this command will start mysql when the server reboots
chkconfig --level 2345 mysqld on
(2) I just used a different email server on our @myautodj.com web hosting account

Cheers myautodj
Thanks for your advise,
i will reinstall on a new VPS tomorrow & advise progress
Do you install any sort of firewall ie. APF or CSF on your server with centovacast??
Your issue is also strange as your problem is opposite to mine
george

I do not install any firewall or anything no, and jsut to clear the record I do not have any issues at all, I just said that ices_cc and sc1 run at a higher load than my sc_trans and sc2 on MY VPS, but the load for each server and anuto dj type is still fine -- in fact my vps (which is one of the lowest levels with the provider's vps packages has been running great, beyond my expectations, and I personally think that even though there may be minor issues here and there Centova v3 is ready to be released, I'm been kinda holding back with marketing but I have seen a steady increase in search engine traffic -- I can't wait till it's released!
-
Thanks for that Myautodj,
You have clarified everything clearly for me, one more question ,
Do you run Centovacast v2 & Centovacast v3 on the same server, if not do you run Centovacast v2 with or without cpanel
George

Ignore my previous question about CCv2 & CCv3 on same server as they are installed in same location
