How can I shape server traffic on a "Maximum Trafic" model (dedicated hosting plan)? OK. I'm looking at purchasing a dedicated hosting plan with a local provider. This provider offers 2000GB traffic into and out of the server. What I want to do is shape traffic into the server based on how much traffic I have left. Example: I start off with a budget of 2000GB a month (66GB/day). This comes down to about 6Mb/s continual use. Of course, servers aren't continually used like this, so just "capping" bandwidth to 6Mb/s would waste bandwidth on spikes. After half a month has gone by, I've only used 500GB of my bandwidth, leaving 1500GB/Month, or 100GB a day. Traffic can now flow at 9Mb/s and I won't go over. I want a system that allows me to use as much traffic as my "budget" will currently allow. Extra points if I can "borrow" bandwidth from the future to help "pay" for spikes. I want "always on" while keeping under my bandwidth budget. Any ideas?

Is getting a dedicated-virtual server the best way to avoid getting shared hosting banning because of CPU use? What I mean is...at Mediatemple.net with their (gs) Grid-Service plan, they only allow 1,000 GPUs and if you go over (instead of getting banned) you have to pay more and I think "banning" was the wrong to use...I meant "suspending", like how some sites suspend you for a day or more if you happen to get on the front page of Digg.com

What steps must be taken for perodic maintaince of a web server? My company will be moving from a shared hosted server to a dedicated server (Unix). I understand that on a dedicated server, we will be responsible to do everything which includes maintaince. Can you please tell me what must I do on a regular and perodic interval to keep the server running smoothly. I am aware that it depends to a large extent on the applications running, but other than that (application independant) what do I need to do? Like for example (just from the top of my head) reboot it on a regular interval (whats a good time frame) or should I never reboot it unless it give a problem? How do I monitor that the server is always up and running, are there any tools which will monitor the server status and send a message to my cell phone when the server goes down? I am sure there may be many such things, everyone, PLEASE tell me everything you know in this issue, I want to be prepared as much as I can. Thanks a TON everyone.
