Operating System – With VM-Ware you can go for both Linux and Windows Operating system, whereas with Hyper-V you can only go for Windows operating system.

Support bits for Hosts – VM-Ware supports 32 and 64-bit hosts, whereas Hyper-V also supports 2 and 64-bit hosts but it needs only 64-bit host which offers support for hardware-assisted virtualization.

Number of Host CPU’s supported – VM-Ware supports to 32 Host CPU’s and Hyper-V supports 16 Host CPU’s

Maximum RAM supported – VM-Ware support(s) 256 GB of RAM and Microsoft 2008 Enterprise Edition of Hyper-V is capable of supporting 2 TB of RAM

Supported Running VM’s – 128 active VM’s supported by VM-Ware and support to the number of running VM’s on a Hyper-V depends on the size of resources available.

RAM Over-Commitment – This feature is only supported by VM-Ware and not by Hyper-V

NIC Teaming – Native support is available for NIC Teaming on a VM-Ware and Hyper-V supports to only through 3rd party drivers.

Number of Virtual Switches supported – 248 switches are supported on a VM-Ware and Hyper-V supports unlimited number of switches.

After looking the above comparison you can easily select one of these fantastic technology suiting to your web hosting requirements.

• VM-Ware is built on a very robust and tested foundation.
• VM-Ware is known for delivering a perfect virtualization platform right from a local desktop to the large public cloud servers.
• You can adapt to the most comprehensive virtualization, overall integration of your IT infrastructure and cloud server management by using VM-Ware.
• As mentioned above it has around 190000 users and this indicated its reliability.
• It is the most cost effective virtualization solution.
• VM-Ware enables you to turn on multiple virtual machines with system boot. You need not login to various operating systems installed on those virtualized parts.
• You can simultaneously start, stop or run virtual machines from remote computers based on different operating systems.
• Modern VM-Ware is capable of enabling dual CPUs on SMP systems.
• VM-Ware provides you a full Graphical User Interface (GUI) VMX editor for editing VMX files in a text editor while using VM-Ware Player.

Full Virtualization – In this type the main physical server is fully simulated so that it supports software and applications to work in a similar manner on virtualized partition as they work on a separate server.

Partial Virtualization – In this type of virtualization technique a selective part of the physical server is simulated and there can some modification required in installed software and application for running on the virtual part of the server.

Paravirtualization – In this type of virtualization no hardware part is simulated but the software and programs are executed in a specific manner to work for their own websites.

The web hosting services provider decides which type of virtualization may suit to which of its clients and according it may provide the services.

Cluster On A Web Hosting Server

From a computer system’s point of view a cluster is nothing but a group of servers and other resources related to servers, specifically designed to enable themselves to work as a single system. Such union of multiple servers and resources in the form of a cluster can achieve greater availability of resources by implementing load balancing and parallel processing among the web hosting servers which are part of the cluster.

Cluster On Personal Computer

On a personal computer storage technology the cluster is a logical union of files stored at different places on a hard disk. Any such file takes up one more multiple clusters of storage. Such file’s clusters are possible to scatter at several different locations on that particular hard disk. Clusters related to each file are kept recorded in a specific file allocation table which is also situated on the same hard disk.

‘.jsp’ is widely used format for webpages but sometimes your web hosting server does not support it and as a result a .jsp page is unable to produce a proper appearance of webpage and it shows some sort of coding, So following are some changes you need to perform so that your website an display .jsp pages as normal webpages.

root@server[~]#vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Now search domain name and remove comment attribute from the following line.

Include “/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/1/username/domainname/*.conf”

Make sure your save before exit

root@server[~]# cd /usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/1/
root@server[~]# mkdir username
root@server[~]# cd username
root@server[~]# mkdir domainname
root@server[~]# cd domainname
root@server[~]# vi cp_jkmount.conf

Now find the file ‘cp_jkmount.conf.’ in which you need to insert the following code.

<IfModule mod_jk.c>
JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
JkMount /servlet/* ajp13
JkMount /servlets/* ajp13
JkMount /*.do ajp13
</IfModule>

Now you need to verify the entry in tomcat configuration file.

root@server[~]# vi /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/conf/server.xml

After checking the entry you need to insert the following code in the same file.

<Host name=”domainname” appBase=”/home/username/public_html”>
<Alias>www.domainname</Alias>
<Context path=”" reloadable=”true” docBase=”/home/username/public_html” debug=”1″/>
<Context path=”/manager” debug=”0″ privileged=”true”
docBase=”/usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/server/webapps/manager”>
</Context>
</Host>

Make sure you Save the file before you exit and now restart the tomcat.

root@server[~]# /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/bin/./shutdown.sh
root@server[~]# /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/bin/./startup.sh
root@server[~]# /scripts/restartsrv tomcat

And now restart the httpd service

root@server[~]# /etc/init.d/httpd stop
root@server[~]# /etc/init.d/httpd startssl

That’s it you can check for the file you have moved in the respective folder.

• Unlock you Authorization Code. (What is Authorization Code?)
• Take backup of all files, emails, databases.
• Remember all the settings you have on your old hosting account to keep them unchanged at the new web hosting services provider.
• Checkout for all operations after you uploaded it at your new web hosting account.
• Newly set up all your previous email accounts on your domain and make sure they all are sending and receiving email as usual.
