Managing Multiple VPS - multiple domains - multiple providers
Hi,
I am trying to figure out what is the best way of managing multiple domains in multiple VPS from a single interface.
I have say 3 different VPS with three different providers. Is it possible to
Manage domains across all the three VPS using a single control panel?
or
One VPS setup as failover for others for all the domains. Single control panel management?
Comments
Not that i'm aware of. If you had all your services with one provider, this is definitely possible.
Depends on what you mean by "manage" your domains. Please elaborate.
Are you looking for control panel with clustering features? Perhaps something like Kloxo/KloxoMR or Interworx? I never tried their clustering features though.
If you're looking for a web/mail hosting panel, I would suggest you take a look at ISPConfig 3... I think the multi-server support is pretty good (at least it works well for me!).
Take a look at Kloxo CP. Supports multiple server administration from one master installation. However, you must install Kloxo slave CPs on the remote servers.
Not sure, if its called cluster . Two Use cases I am considering. Not sure one solution will address both. May be first one is a Control panel. Will check ISPconfig and KloxoMR.
Usecase 1
Say, I have three servers A, B and C
From A, I should be able to create/delete/manage domains on B and C.
Usecase 2
I have 2 servers A and B
Server A acts as failover for all domains in Server B. content syncs between A and B automatically.
Thanks
If control panel includes the terminal, you could use Rex. The great thing about it is that you can customize everything. So you can set-up just the tasks you need.
@ska thanks for the mention of Rex. It looks interesting.
With rexify you have things like Ansible, Salt Stack, Puppet, Chef - Automatic deployment software.
SolusVM has an API for a reason - http://vpsboard.com/topic/806-solus-api-manager-now-what/
I'm sure there are many PHP based panels that can communicate to SolusVM at multiple providers for Console + Restart/Shutdown/Boot + Reinstall
I believe virtualmin/webmin supports multiple servers so that may be an option.
I use webmin and login to a master then click into each VPS from the "webmin servers" module. Very easy, has rsync module for your option B and you can setup monitors in webmin as well.
It is a bit old school and is not php.
