CloudLinux License
CloudLinux is the first commercial OS that meets the specific needs and demands of web hosting.

CloudLinux does it better by isolating and controlling resource spikes to prevent entire servers going down. That means less support calls and less time tracking down and suspending accounts.

Do you monitor my server?

Yes, we do basic monitoring of the server to ensure uptime. Should the server become unresponsive to ping or if the RAID array fails, we will notify you via email and SmS prior to taking action.

The following nameservers can be used for outbound DNS resolution by hosts on our network:
nscache1.vpscity.co.za (103.18.56.14)

Are dedicated game servers allowed?

Due to the nature of game servers and the unfortunate ability they have to attract DoS attacks, we unfortunately do not allow them on our network. We provide a predominant corporate network with many businesses running services and can not afford the disruption that DoS attacks bring due to gaming servers.
