Virtual Private Servers

Frequently asked questions about VPS


How will I connect to my virtual private server?

You will have a few options. You will be able to connect through Parallels Plesk Panel. SSH will also be available for full admin access.

What is the Parallels Plesk Panel?

The Plesk Panel is a control panel developed by Parallels for hosting service providers, an easy-to-use Web interface that allows you to easily manage Web sites on your server. This allows you to benefit from the power of a virtual server without requiring extensive technical knowledge. All virtual private servers hosted by SherWeb come with a 10-domain Plesk license. You can increase the number of domains by purchasing additional licenses, as needed.

Can I upgrade my VPS?

Yes it's very easy to upgrade your VPS. By purchasing some additional memory, disk space or any other system resource, your VPS will be automatically upgraded. The process usually takes just a few minutes.

How much technical knowledge do I need to manage my VPS?

It really depends on what you use your virtual server for. If you plan to use it for website hosting, not much technical knowledge is required since we provide access to the Parallels Plesk Panel which is very intuitive and user-friendly. If you need to run and manage custom applications, knowledge of Linux operating systems is required.

Do you offer managed support services?

Yes. We offer complimentary support when it comes to a network or hardware issue, including a failed setup process.

Optional support is also available at an hourly fee when it comes to helping you in administering your server. Please contact our sales department for more information.

What can I do with my VPS?

Your virtual server can be used to run any application or service you would usually run on a dedicated server. This includes Web hosting, VoIP systems, custom Web applications, etc.

What if I impair or damage my server?

You will need to create a new VPS and restore your information from backups (assuming you have a backup plan). Both creating a VPS and restoring from backup can be done quickly, and we offer daily and weekly backup options with both our basic and advanced plans.

On what kind of servers are VPS hosted?

All virtual servers are hosted on Dell PowerEdge servers.

How many IP addresses do I get?

Any VPS comes with 3 IP addresses. Additional IPs can be purchased in increments of 10.

What RAID configuration does SherWeb use to host VPS storage?

All VPS storage is located on RAID 5. If you have backups enabled, these are stored on a separate system.
