Question about Vesta & multi server setup!

[rmikulas]

Hello everyone! I tried out Vesta for a bit now and love it however I have 4 servers that I want to use Vesta with. 1 Web Server, 1 Mail Server, 2 Name Servers. Currently I am using ISPConfig 3 in a multi server setup but I have found that ISPConfig, while full featured, is overkill for my needs.

My question to you is;

Is it possible to setup Vesta on my web server and have it control my separate mail and name servers as well?

Vesta can control remote database servers as well as remote dns servers. Mail layer will be clustered soon.

Here is how you can add remote mysql database host

Usage: v-add-database-host TYPE HOST DBUSER DBPASS [MAX_DB] [CHARSETS] [TPL]

Code: Select all

v-add-database-host mysql db.vestacp.com root wMk45jyOYC
v-suspend-database-host mysql localhost

This is example for dns

Usage: v-add-remote-dns-host HOST PORT USER PASSWORD [TYPE] [DNS_USER]

Code: Select all

v-add-remote-dns-host ns1.vestacp.com 8083 admin fnG03HOKSS
v-add-remote-dns-host ns2.vestacp.com 8083 admin vyPI5N3ecB

And you can also store your backups on a remote ftp server

Usage: v-add-backup-ftp-host HOST USERNAME PASSWORD [PATH] [PORT]

Code: Select all

v-add-backup-ftp-host ftp.vestacp.com backups 9hGJ0mj5Wk

This is exactly what I needed! I will be migrating my servers over to Vesta today and testing it out further. Thanks so much for your help skid. It's greatly appreciated!

Well I did a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04.3 and Vesta on my web server and dns server to try dns clustering. When using

Code: Select all

v-add-remote-dns-host HOST PORT USER PASSWORD

I get the following error;

Code: Select all

Error: dns user dns-cluster doesn't exist

After creating a user named 'dns-cluster' it's working as expected!

Can you add multiple webservers to a multi-server setup? I would like maybe 5 webservers where you can choose webserver when provisioning users? Is this possible with one webinterface?

You need to create a user called 'dns-cluster' on the slave server.

You can follow this tutorial: stevetan.me/vestacp-dns-cluster-setup/
or view the vestacp doc.

any idea by when these would be integrated in the GUI itself...
