Nameserver: What Is It And What Does It Do?Host It Smart
You must have come across the word “Nameserver” if you own or manage a website. But what exactly is a ‘Nameserver’? And how is it helpful in the internet world?
Web hosting is the service that makes websites accessible over the Internet. It can be Windows-based or Linux-based and involves the use of certain terms.
Getting Started
This guide will help you deploy a Cloudtenna DirectShare virtual appliance (VA) using VMware ESXi.
Assumptions
• It is assumed that the reader has a working knowledge of VMware vSphere system administration,
Microsoft® Windows® desktop and server administration, SAN network design, basic Ubuntu Linux
commands and basic SAN storage operations.
• This is not a complete “how to” guide. Step by step setup is covered in part, examples of screen shots
and settings should be sufficient for the reader to apply the right changes to implement the steps outlined
in this guide.
Limitations and Other Considerations
External File Sharing and Collaboration can be setup in multiple different fashions. This solution guide will
address a specific scenario and how to build around it.
For information on how to setup a NON-PRODUCTION Windows Server 2012R2 demo environment in
conjunction with a DirectShare virtual appliance, download the “How to setup a Fresh Windows Server
for a DirectShare EasyDemo” at https://channel.ctna.co/downloads/ .
CLOUDTENNA DIRECTSHARE QUICK-START GUIDE 4
DirectShare Virtual Appliance Sizing
Optimal performance of the DirectShare VA (Virtual Appliance) is dependent on several factors. Sizing of
the VA is determined by number of concurrent users accessing files at max load.
Production sizing of compute resources should be determined by monitoring of the VA during initial usage
and onboarding of users. Although system administrators are accustomed to this best practice, more
frequent checks of resource utilization are recommended, as each environment has different success criteria
and usage, activity varies throughout different times of day, days of week, and seasonal demands on the
network may vary.
A deescalating resource monitoring check is recommended similar to this example:
Day 1+: Once every few until all users are on boarded and have successfully connected at least once.
Day 2: Twice daily.
Day 3 - 7: Once daily.
Day 8+: Notifications configured to alert administrators at 80% of vCPU and/or RAM reached.
Minimum VA resources:
• 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 40 GB local volume (few users with limited file transfer requests).
• < 25 concurrent file transfers
Medium VA resources:
• 2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, 40 GB local volume (light file transfers evenly throughout the day).
• < 75 concurrent file transfers
Large VA resources:
• 4 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 40 GB local volume (increased file transfers at different peak times of day).
• < 150 concurrent file transfers
Maximum VA sizing:
• 8 vCPU, 16 GB RAM, 40 GB local volume (heavy concurrent file transfers all day long).
• <= 300 concurrent file transfers
The above-recommended resource allocations are for a single DirectShare VA. Local volume size
of 40 GB may be increased to accommodate longer audit log retention requirements, but not
required for performance.

Web hosting is a service that is needed for rendering websites accessible over the Internet and can be of many types, which includes WordPress Hosting, that is meant exclusively as a hosting solution for WordPress sites.
HTS Dedicated Servers and HTS Dedicated Hosting are popular solutions for hosting websites, wherein both the services offer dedicated IP addresses to the hosted sites.
HTS Dedicated Servers and HTS Dedicated Hosting are popular solutions for hosting websites, wherein both the services offer dedicated IP addresses to the hosted sites.
Shared Hosting, Dedicated Hosting, VPS Hosting and WordPress Hosting are some of the most commonly used web hosting solutions to host different types of websites. Reseller Hosting offers a perfect hosting solution for starting the business of web hosting at the least expense.
The basic settings related to cPanel & WHM, such as nameservers or contact information, can be configured through this interface. All available setup settings are displayed by the system by default.
Essential Features in Web Hosting PlansHTS Hosting
Certain web hosting features, such as high uptime, fast page loads, 24/7 technical support, etc., are features that need to be present in every web hosting plan,in order for the web hosting service to be efficient.
VPS Hosting, which is a less expensive hosting alternative to availing a dedicated server, offers convenience with regard to server management through its Managed VPS Hosting service and full control over server management through its Self-managed VPS Hosting service.
Difference Between Managed VPS Hosting Self-Managed VPS HostingHTS Hosting
Managed VPS Hosting and Self-managed VPS Hosting are two different types of VPS Hosting services for hosting websites on Virtual Private Servers (VPS).
Web Hosting, Web Servers, Web Hosts and MoreHTS Hosting
The service of web hosting that is provided by web hosts, through various web hosting solutions, offers web server space for hosting websites and keeps sites up and running seamlessly.
A business site needs to be seamlessly accessible online at fast speed and securely. Hence, it is important that it is hosted through such a web hosting solution that meets these specific hosting requirements perfectly.
Reseller Hosting and Dedicated Web ServersHTS Hosting
Reseller Hosting is a web hosting service, whereas a dedicated server is a web server used in web hosting for storing and processing the files of a single site per server.
The system creates a tarball file (.tar.gz) every time a backup is created. It contains the compressed versions of the files of an account. The file format that is used by the system is, USERNAME.tar.gz. In it, “USERNAME” represents the username of the cPanel account.
HTS VPS (Virtual Private Servers) and HTS Dedicated Servers are two of the many services offered by HTS Hosting to its global customers for hosting their websites and storing their valuable data on the secure and fast web servers of HTS Hosting.
HTS Hosting, which is a globally preferred web hosting service provider, offers Basic, Advance, Business and Professional WordPress Hosting plans for the effective hosting of WordPress sites, at the most budget-friendly prices.

3. A DNS (Domain Name System) cluster refers to a collection of nameservers. This
groups shares records among each other. It serves the purpose of separating in
physical form the nameservers that are handing the web servers’ DNS requests. It
makes it possible to configure a DNS cluster, so that servers could be added to a
DNS cluster that already exists.

DNS Cluster
4. DNS is the abbreviation of Domain Name System. It refers to the naming system
used by computers and other resources that are connected to either a private
network or to the Internet. It is decentralized as well as hierarchical. It is the DNS
that ensures the delegation of the task which caters to the assignment of domain
names and mapping those to Internet resources. Moreover, the more easily
memorized domain names are translated by it to IP addresses that are numerical.
These IP addresses are needed to locate and identify computer services and
devices. The technical functionality of the service related to database is also
specified by DNS.

DNS
5. In the context of the Internet which is used to browse innumerable websites, web
hosting is important to mention. Web Hosting refers to the leasing of server space
along with providing the necessary service and technology to make a website
accessible over the Internet. There are many website hosting service providers (also
referred to as web hosts) that offer various plans for various types of web hosting,
such as shared, dedicated, resellers,WordPress, cloud etc.
The terms that are often heard in the context of web hosting are “Top Cloud
Hosting Company”, the “Best Website Hosting Company” and the “Best Windows
Hosting Company”. These refer to web hosts that excel in the quality of services
provided by them.

Web Hosting
7. Those users who have the All ACL privilege are able to add to a DNS cluster their
own custom DNS servers. Such users who possess this privilege also have the
ability to make changes to the cluster members that exist. Modifying DNS cluster
settings involves choosing between managing one’s DNS clusters as the root user
or in the form of a reseller from the Managing DNS Cluster as: menu.
Prior to the addition of custom DNS servers or making changes to existing cluster
members, one is supposed to choose the root setting that is in the Managing DNS
Cluster as: menu.
7
Managing DNS Clusters
8. The failure threshold with regard to cluster members’ setting enables the user to specify that particular
number of DNS Admin commands that are allowed to fail, prior to WHM disabling a DNS cluster member that
is unresponsive. It is advisable to disable an unresponsive DNS cluster member in order to aid improvement in
performance.
The steps that need to be followed in order for the failure threshold for cluster members’ setting to be
configured are mentioned below-
Step 1- Selection of the desired setting. A user should opt for 10 (Default) to use the default setting. In
this setting a cluster member is permitted to fail DNS Admin commands up to 10 times. It is usually
recommended to use this setting. Next the second setting should be chosen, so that the custom failure
threshold could be entered. It is advisable to increase the count for failure number in those situations where
the server down time is frequent and network interruption happens frequently. This ensures that certain cluster
members are not marked offline by the system. If the user wants to keep all of the servers in his DNS cluster
online perpetually and doesn’t want to consider the number of DNS Admin commands that have failed, then he
should opt for “Keep all cluster members online at all times”
8
Cluster Members’ Failure
Threshold
9. Step 2- “Receive a notification when WHM disables an unresponsive cluster
member” option should be selected in order to receive notifications in that case
when an unresponsive member in the DNS cluster is disabled. Disabled cluster
members must be enabled manually.
Step 3- The option to change must be clicked. In the scenario when any cluster
member that is in the sync role is found to be offline for a very long period of time,
the other server’s zones need to be resynchronized. This keeps the cluster member
updated.
9
Cluster Members’ Failure
Threshold
10. Certain minimum requirements need to be met in order to configure a DNS cluster. These are
mentioned below-
A minimum of 2 servers must be present in the clusters.
There must be at least 1 cPanel and WHM server present with cPanel and WHM installed. A scenario
involving a DNS cluster that has more than 1 of these, also functions properly.
Every machine that is in the DNS cluster needs to have cPanel and WHM or have a version 11 or
higher of cPanel DNS Only installed. This is necessary as some of the features of cPanel and WHM
might not function with versions that are old.
The most efficient structure should be considered prior to setting up the DNS cluster. The speed of
resolution of DNS requests is determined by the way in which each server is linked.
To digress, terms such as “Top Cloud Hosting Company”, the “Best Website Hosting Company” and the
“Best Windows Hosting Company” are used for those web hosts that provide reliable web hosting
services.
10
DNS Cluster Requirements
11. Direct links should be used- When there are multiple steps present between a cPanel and WHM and a
nameserver, then the speed of servers tend to decrease. It is advisable to link cPanel and WHM server to the DNS
servers directly, in order to enhance the performance of the servers. This ensures the elimination of the steps
performed by every request. Hence, the DNs requests get resolved swiftly. It is optimal to have a direct link
between each of the 2 nameservers and the web server. Such a configuration can be created by one cPanel and
WHM server with the need for nameservers that can be one or more in number.
The primary nameserver should be used as an intermediary- If the need arises, the primary nameserver can be
placed between the cPanel and WHM server and the nameserver that is secondary. Any intermediate server that
gets added will slow the data transfer speed to three times in comparison with that for a direct link. An
intermediate nameserver that is present between the web server and that nameserver that is secondary is
admissible. For the creation of such a configuration, one cPanel and WHM server with a minimum of 2
nameservers is needed.
Multiple intermediary nameservers should be used- In this configuration multiple steps are used between WHM
server and cPanel and nameservers. A minimum of two cPanel and WHM servers along with a minimum of two
nameservers is needed for the creation of this configuration. Such a configuration is known to reduce the servers’
response time significantly. This is not a method that is advisable as it reduces performance considerably.
