CentOS 6 comes with the following versions:

• Apache 2.2
• MySQL 5.1.47
• PostgreSQL 8.4.4
• Memcached 1.4.4
• Ruby 1.8.7
• PHP 5.3.2
• Tomcat 6 / OpenJDK 6

As always, for new VPS systems you can choose Scientific Linux in the order form, for existing VPS’es you can reinstall from Hypanel -> Machine setting tab.

In order to have the server nodes run smoothly we’ve implemented a CPU feature that kicks in whenever a node has less than 10-20% of idle CPU and will limit your processor hungry neighbors.

We’ve also increased the disk storage space allocated to each VPS. For instance VPS Start disk storage was increased from 20 GB to 30 GB, check the home page for the modified packages – intovps.com.

All existing VPS’s have already been upgraded. You don’t need to restart your VPS. In fact, you don’t need to do anything but enjoy the new power and storage.

Existing customers can reinstall their VPS from Hypanel or can follow the upgrade steps. New customers can choose the operating system template in the order form.

You can also reinstall your VPS yourself anytime from Hypanel at no extra cost and choose one of our 30 OS templates.

We’ve just updated Hypanel, our home baked VPS control panel, with the following new graphs:

• number of disk writes and reads
• data volume written and read to/from the disk
• bandwidth graph with in/out
• number of network packets in/out
• % CPU usage
• number of processes+threads
• number of used sockets
• send and receive TCP buffer (bytes)
• used kernel memory

All these are graphs and monitoring period can be customized per hour (current hour, last hour, 2 hours ago etc.), per day (today, yesterday, etc.) or per month.

For new VPS order choose the OS template in the order form. Existing customers can reinstall any time from Hypanel.
