Got a Server? Want to help host? - tyler569 - 07-16-2014

Hey everybody, over the past year, ORE has received a lot of offers from members to host services, and I've decided that we should centralize these offers so we can find them if we ever need a server.

To offer yourself as a sacrifice slave volunteer for ORE hosting, please copy and fill out the following form:
Code:
What do you want to host?:
Server Specs (including OS):
Server's Internet Connection Info (i.e. upload/download/is it on WiFi?):
Server's Location:
What else would this server be doing (if anything)?:
How reliable is server's internet/power?:

If/When we require hosting services, we can then simply come here and look through what's offered.


EDIT'd to add OS question
EDIT: As a few people have posted things like this:
I'd like to clarify, desktop computers are not acceptable hosting machines, it can be doing other things but must be a dedicated server.
We also do require Linux (preferably Debian Jessie) for our infrastructure, if you have a Windows Server and are unwilling to visualize you need not apply.


RE: Got a Server? Like ORE? - PhysoniumI - 07-16-2014

What do you want to host?: Anything Required
Server Specs: i7 3770k @ 4.5GHz 8-12 GB ram allocatable
Server's Internet Connection Info (i.e. upload/download/is it on WiFi?): 20/20 (upgradable if required) ethernet
Server's Location: Salt Lake City, Utah (US)
What else would this server be doing (if anything)?: Light load (no more than 10-15% processor power used)
How reliable is server's internet/power?: Very. Only 2 drops in past almost 3 years, (not counting that one time it got DDoSed >.>)

I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE [SLAVE]!

Also, your title is worded really weirdly. Are we liking ORE or is it like ORE?

(doing this to not flood with posts that are useless)
But ORE isn't really a server. It's a concept, which is in no way physical (besides a lot of neutrons). Maybe the servers that ORE is run on?

Good job making the title not stupid.


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - Nickster258 - 07-17-2014

What do you want to host?: Anything you want
Server Specs: Phenom II X6 @ 2.7Ghz w/ 9MB Cache. 16GB DDR3 RAM
Server's Internet Connection Info (i.e. upload/download/is it on WiFi?): 40/4 10MS ping. Ethernet
Server's Location: Atlanta, Ga. USA
What else would this server be doing (if anything)?: Other than running the modded server, nothing.
How reliable is server's internet/power?: Internet has been only good to me for the past year or so. The router, modem, switch, and server itself is on a battery backup that will last roughly 35 minutes incase of a power outage. (I got it when my area was known for power surges of just a few seconds. Fixed now but it is a great safety measure)

I also add that this is a dedicated machine, nothing other than the server itself will be run on it.
ORE, if you need me, I will be here.


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - ddthj - 07-31-2014

What do you want to host?: Backups
Server Specs: Celeron 2.6GHz overclocked, 8GB of RAM and 170GB free on the HDD
Server's Internet Connection Info (i.e. upload/download/is it on WiFi?): 1mbps up/ 18 down, ethernet
Server's Location: North Carolina
What else would this server be doing (if anything)?: nothing for the next 2 weeks, after that, running a survival server
How reliable is server's internet/power?: not good, still waiting on battery backups, internet sometimes drops to .6 mbps up/ 10 down

Tyler told me to list this...


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - Chibill - 07-31-2014

What do you want to host?:Anything. Not good from hosting the Minecraft servers because of my Net speed.

Server's Internet Connection Info (i.e. upload/download/is it on WiFi?):Ethernet (less then a foot from internet box.) http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3658584345
Server's Location:IL
What else would this server be doing (if anything)?: Hosting a Minecraft build server for my own use and posibly running a few other servers. But the server runs proxmox which allows me to give you your own VM on it.
How reliable is server's internet/power?: Power almost never off. Internet may dip now and then because of load on my router (about 7 things on its wifi.)

RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - tyler569 - 08-01-2014

Please keep this thread serious please, I just deleted half a dozen troll/irrelevant posts


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - jxu - 08-01-2014

I was serious
someone mentioned having off-site backups
I can host them if needed, you can encrypt them or whatever


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - LordDecapo - 08-02-2014

I dont have an AMAZING computer or like Uni-quality connection, but its all very stable

I have an AMD tricore @2.4ghz
and 3GB RAM,
it would be hardwired to my router running at about 40MPS down and 18-22MPS UP (varries by time of day here)
the internet has only ever gone out once for me in the last year, and it lasted for all of 1 second.

MAIN issue i may see, is that its harddrive is corrupted,,, i did it when trying to extract a VHD to an image and mask the image onto the drive.... doesnt work, dont try it.....
so it is running off of a 64gb USB 2.0

i am on vacation this week, so i will be ordering parts for a new computer that will be a champ, but that wont be up for atleast a couple weeks.


PS.... its been in "sleep" for the past 2 weeks, as i only ever used it to watch netflix on like once when my xbox was being a bitch (accounting issues lol, they charged wrong card).
so if it runs any server.. only the OS and the essetials for the server will be up while the server would be

RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - Dcentrics - 01-13-2015

Can we just make it clear that none of this should affect your rank in game. You may host the server at your own use but this does not auto-give any member hosting, the Staff/Administrator tags in-game.

I figured that was common sense.

If I didn't say it somebody would request that they receive those for hosting at their expense...


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - Back_and_Black1 - 01-29-2015

I will be purchasing server computers and would be willing to help just give me specs you want and ill see what I can do


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - Apuly - 01-29-2015

We expect you to have at least 2x Intel Xeon E7-8893 v2, with at least 128 gigs of ram.
Also the graphics card must be a PNY Quadro K6000 SDI 12GB.

If you have all of this set up, you are ready to host ORE servers.

Confirmed.


RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - Nickster258 - 02-02-2015

I would like to mention something on what makes a server a server. It cannot be what you use for your daily internet use. Web-browsing/light-gaming is not what a server does and is not the purpose of this thread. We are looking for legitimate hosts with legitimate servers who would be willing to volunteer as tribute host ORE services on their server.

How reliable is server's internet/power?: My internet almost never goes down, and the only reason it does go down is because every 3-4 months I get an occasional power blip, but this could easily be fixed by a battery backup considering the power never goes out for more than half a second.

Lets reserve this thread to physical machines that users own and can volunteer to host themselves.

RE: Got a Server? Want to help host? - Nemes - 06-02-2017

What do you want to host?: Backups or anything that doesnt require too much compute power/fast connection
  Server Specs: AMD E1-2500 (1.4 GHz dualcore), 4 GB RAM, 1 TB slow af HDD, ubuntu server 16.04 LTS - it's a half broken laptop, works fine as a NAS though
  Server's Internet Connection Info: 200 mbit down, 20 mbit up - wired but not dedicated to just the laptop
  Server's Location: Czech Republic far far away
  What else would this server be doing: hosting my website, local plex server (movie streaming), samba share, my personal backups and backups from redstoner.com
  How reliable is server's internet/power: Internet is solid, power too now that I taped it up with duct-tape so that we can't accidentally unplug it (yup, broken battery)


All in all a pretty crap solution but should be enough for like daily backups that occur - basically good for stuff thats not mission-critical if it fails but can be handy if other stuff fails :Tongue Disk space dedicated for ORE backups is TBD if we get this gets accepted, free space right now is 500 GB of which Im willing to dedicate up to 300 GB to ORE backups, more shouldnt be needed anyways.
