Hello everyone,

I am very pleased to announce that we are in the process of deploying the R1Soft CDP Backup system across all of our hardware nodes on our network. R1Soft is a unique platform which is very highly regarded for their innovative means of performing backups. The new R1Soft CDP backups will be much more reliable than our previous rsync based system and will allow for greater redundancy and easier means of restoration.

We have begun deploying the new system in Atlanta first and will then proceed to Dallas, Chicago, and finally San Jose. Roughly half of our Atlanta hardware is already completed at the time of this writing and the rest will be implemented this evening. The further networks will be completed and begin syncing sometime tomorrow.

The initial sync will take quite some time and will lead to potentially degraded disk IO performance until completed. Once the initial sync is completed further syncs will take a matter of minutes.

We will be archiving the last 3 days worth of backups at this time and will be exploring extending this to 5 in the future.

This is yet another way we are working to improve our services.

Should anyone have any questions, please feel free to open a ticket.

Thanks,
Server Complete, LLC

EDIT – Feb 18, 2010 (2:50PM EST)
All hardware nodes have been synchronized numerous times now and everything seems to be working rather well Previous rsync based backups would run for hours every evening. Our new R1Soft platform completes an entire sync in less than 5 minutes generally and this in turn is leading to overall better performance while backups are running. We are very pleased with R1Soft thus far and it is the new standard for all of our current and future nodes.

Hello everyone,

With the recent troubles with PayPal in India, we were contacted by several of our Indian customers asking for advice on how to pay their invoices. We had been planning to expand our payment options in the future so we decided that it was finally time to do so.

As of today, we now accept PayPal and AlertPay as means of payments.

By default, all accounts are setup to be paid via PayPal. If you wish to change the gateway to AlertPay you will need to contact Billing from the Support Center in Mission Control. We are working on making it possible for you to make this change yourself, however, for the time being we must do it on our side.

We do have plans to further expand to direct credit card processing within the next 2-3 months with the release of Mission Control 3.0

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to let us know!

Thanks,

After roughly 8-10 months of our forums being disabled, we have decided that we would bring them back online

http://forums.servercomplete.com/

Previously we had quite a serious spam bot issue and it became very tedious to remove the unacceptable posts, however, this time around we have implemented a lot of new procedures and upgrades to the latest version of IPB to prevent spam issues in the future.

We decided it was best to start with a clean slate so anything from the previous forums was removed.

Feel free to collaborate with others and help build a great community!

JACKSONVILLE, FL (January 22) – Hosting services provider Server Complete, LLC has expanded their Atlanta facility to also service Windows 2003 and Windows 2008 VPS powered by Xen.

“We had much demand for Xen based Windows VMs out of our Atlanta location,” commented CEO Daniel Stephens. “We previously only opened Xen signups for our San Jose location and the demand for availability out of Atlanta was overwhelming. Atlanta remains our largest and most demanded facility.”

Current supplies in Atlanta are limited and are expected to sell out rather fast. More information about the Windows Xen packages may be found on the Server Complete website at http://www.servercomplete.com/vps-windows

Server Complete, LLC was founded in January 2008 and services a large client base out of four datacenter locations in Atlanta, Dallas, San Jose, and Chicago. Server Complete, LLC specializes in Linux and Windows Server virtualization through means of OpenVZ, Xen, and Parallels Virtuozzo.
