WHM enables you quick, easy and automated management of your sever and to very easily create web hosting packages, and it provides your users access to a powerful cPanel control panel for the purpose of managing individual accounts within WHM. The cPanel server itself is divided into two parts:
- the WHM server control panel (root access to WHM)
The server administrator has access and complete control over all WHM functions. They can access all WHM interface levels, including WHM resellers and the cPanel end user interface. There is only one administrator user on the server. - cPanel control panel for the hosting end user
cPanel is a control panel used for direct management of individual hosting accounts.
The options available to the user depend on administrator settings, or reseller settings if the end user is their client.

What are some important features of JetBackup?
Some important features of JetBackup for cPanel are:
- Incremental data backup
After creating the first backup copy which encompasses the entire cPanel account, every subsequent copy will solely include the differences in relation to the previous version, which accelerates the process of creating backup copies and enables the user to review the stores changes in detail. - Storage of copies to multiple locations
JetBackup enables several technical options for the purpose of creating backup copies, such as storing copies to a remote server using FTP ili SSH, storing them on Dropbox or Amazon S3. - Recovery of individual files from backup copies
In case you don’t need to recover the entire cPanel account, the transparent interface of JetBackup enables you to recover individual files, e-mail messages, databases, DNS scripts and a lot more with just a few clicks. - Full CloudLinux support
With the full support of JetBackup for CloudLinux, you can place the process of creating backup copies within the LVE, which makes the backup copy be created within individually assigned resources for each cPanel user. If you don’t have CloudLinux, you can still optimise the process of creating backup copies by using resync IO limitations and assign priority to services.

What is LVE and what is it used for?
LVE is a kernel-level technology developed by the CloudLinux team which operates in a way similar to container virtualization. The LVE Manager enables you to maintain precise control over your server’s resources, including CPU, IO, inodes, the number of processes and connections that each individual cPanel account can use. Thanks to CloudLinux, you can ensure for your customers the resources they leased without depriving other users from their resources. LVE enables many crucial settings:
- CPU limitation
Limits CPU usage for each individual user. When a user reaches the set CPU limits, their processes are decelerated in order to prevent the misuse of server resources. Processor limitations are crucial in preventing individual users from slowing down or even blocking the entire server and making it unresponsive. - Memory limitation
Limits memory usage per user. Memory limitations are important in preventing the overuse of server memory which can lead to server congestion. Memory limitations are also fundamental in protecting the server from destroying important caches that can help increase the speed and reduce the load of the server. - I/O limits
Offers the limitation of data throughput per user. The bandwidth is measured in kB/s, and, upon reaching the limit, the processes are reduced. Since IO is one of the weakest shared hosting resources, setting a ceiling for user usage is vital because it enables stable work for all users, instead of several users with extremely complex sites congesting the disks. - Process number limitation
Limits the number of simultaneous processes within the LVE for each user. After the limit has been reached, no new processes can be created until one of the existing processes is complete. This effectively prevents fork bombs and similar DOS attacks. - Entry process limitation
Limits the number of entry processes within the LVE for each user. A single entry process actually represents a single website visitor. This limitation is important in order to prevent a single website from taking up all Apache resources and making the server unresponsive due to overload. - MySQL limits
MySQL Governor enables you to set a resource limitation per user. You can set a limitation for CPU and IO reading and writing, thus preventing individual users from taking up the majority of MySQL server resources. Nowadays, MySQL data launches most web applications and it’s important to monitor those applications. - Inode limits
Inode is a type of data structure that describes file system objects – files and directories. Only a limited number of inodes is in each file system, and, after those are used, no new files can be created. Limitations are enforced through file system quotas per user.
What if I use up all the hours included in the premium support service?
Should the included time be exceeded, each additional activity which is not part of the regular, i.e. ordinary MyDataKnox support will be charged for at a price of HRK 200 per hour, or the equivalent amount in a foreign currency. This price doesn’t include VAT and the billing unit is 30 minutes.
Why do I need web hosting?
In order for your domain to display content, the content (web pages, images, etc.) must be located on a server which executed your website’s code and serves its contents.
MyDataKnox web hosting service gives you access to that kind of server.
Why should I use CloudLinux OS and in which situations?
If you provide web hosting services, it’s extremely important to secure and stabilise the servers you’re using. Even if you’re not offering web hosting services, but you require the option to isolate your users, CloudLinux is the perfect choice.
What is included in a MyDataKnox DNS hosting service?

Which characters can I use in my domain name?
You can use all the letters of the alphabet, numbers and hyphens.
