Server Hosting - Performance Problems and Solutions

Post by Deramond » 11 Nov 2014, 20:04

Hi,
i want to descripe as short as possible what the intention of this threat is and what i want to achive with it.
I'm Hosting a 64 Slot Lif-Server and have unreproduceable lags sometime every two minutes and without changing anything its total lagfree for hours.
In this threat i want to write my experiences and would appriciate to hear some tipps for performance boosts for my Lif-Server and of course to collect all information for hosting own server for all Admins.

My current host-config is:

Intel Xeon 8-Core @3GHz
8GB Ram
60GB SSD -> with Lif Dedicatet Server and Database
500GB HDD -> Backupdrive
Windows Server 2012 R2 (full patched) Virtualized on Root-Server with Hyper-V

Adds by myself, or configs:
- restart Lif-DD-Server every 6 hours
- restart Host every night at 0400
- Script to ensure Lif-DD-Server is running

Current problems:

- random lags
- very rare but sometimes client disconnect but no server crash

Information/errors in logfiles:
- "packetDataChecksum Disagree!"
- "srv collision rebuild" mostly while terraforming

What i did until now:

- Fix the Pagefile to min:4096 and max: 5627
- Task Priority of mysql and dd-server to "higher as normal"

Problems that did not uccure for me but i heared about:

- total server crashes

I hope we can find solutions for better server performance.

Greetings,
Deramond
