The main prerequisite is being an existing user of the Veeam backup service, which means that you need to have a Veeam console which enables you to connect to the Cloud Connect Backup service.

Yes, you can expand your VPS disk space by leasing additional space. However, the installed operating system must be properly configured in order to include the extra disk space. You can contact our customer support if you need more information or assistance.

Veeam Cloud Connect Backup is a service of performing off-site backup to the MyDataKnox cloud. Simply put, you lease backup space and add it to your Veeam console.

If you require multiple hosting accounts with separate cPanel access and want to be able to create cPanel hosting accounts by yourself, reseller hosting is the right choice.

Standard web hosting packages are perfect for less-demanding users in need of hosting for their personal sites, blogs, simple business sites and other similar websites with a low number of visitors.
Advanced hosting packages are intended for more demanding users which require additional resources and steady functioning of advanced web applications, such as web shops, CRM systems and websites with a large number of visitors.
Regardless of the package you choose, all our web hosting packages include, among many other benefits, an unlimited number of domains, unlimited e-mail addresses, a completely free SSL certificate for each of the websites within a hosting package, a simple installation of WordPress and other popular platforms and content, as well as professional support 24/7 all year round.

A dedicated server is a physical server that uses hardware resources that are accessible only to you, and you have full control over the server. Dedicated servers offer you a strong, reliable hardware, located at our cutting-edge data centre, which is cost-saving since there are no expenses regarding the procurement of a server, placing it in a data centre and maintaining it.

The EPP key, also known as Authorization code, is one of the safeguards against unauthorized transfers of domain name registrations. The EPP key is required when transferring .com, .org, .net and various other domain names. You cannot initiate a domain name transfer for these domain extensions without an EPP code.

A domain transfer starts with a domain transfer order on our website. Upon ordering a transfer, you’ll need an EPP authorization code for most extensions, which you can get from your existing registrar, and the domain must be unlocked for transfer. After you pay for the transfer, which is necessary since a domain is automatically prolonged for a year upon transfer, you’ll confirm the transfer by clicking on a link sent to you by e-mail. Afterwards, it’ll only take a couple of minutes up to a few days, depending on the registrar and the domain extension, until the transfer is complete.

In order to activate the R1Soft backup service, all you need to do is to install the R1Soft client software on the server you want to backup. Afterwards, the R1Soft makes copies in the following way:

1. first, a complete copy of your server is made
2. the R1Soft client is constantly monitoring all changes on the disks within your server
3. each subsequent time a backup copy is saved, a snapshot is made and only the changed data is sent to the cloud (incremental backup).

VPS management requires basic server administrator knowledge. You’ll need it to administrate the operating system you’ll install (Linux or Windows) and configure the applications. If you require VPS, but feel that you lack the technical skills needed to manage a server, we recommend that you take a look at our Premium support service.

All reseller web hosting accounts include two separate control panels:

• a Reseller Web Host Manager (WHM) which enables you to create accounts for your users and manage them
• a cPanel control panel for your users which enables them to easily create and/or manage websites and e-mail.

WHM makes it very simple to manage and create various subaccounts. You will be able to:

• set up cPanel for each user
• limit user SSD storage and/or bandwidth
• change user passwords, and perform many other actions.

Your users will be responsible for setting up their websites and e-mail, as well as managing their accounts, which they can perform using the cPanel control panel.
cPanel will enable them to create and manage their websites and e-mail accounts without your intervention.

There are no limitations regarding the lease of a .ru domain, however, if the registrant or administrator is an organisation or company located in Russia, they must enter their tax identification number (10 digits), the company registration number (9 digits) and the registrant’s name.
Private persons must enter their date of birth, passport number, the passport-issuing entity and the date of its issue.
You can enter all the above-mentioned information on our website upon ordering an .ru domain.

No. MyDataKnox expressly prohibits booting game servers on virtual and dedicated servers.

Of course. Upon ordering a VPS service, you select the number of additional IP addresses you require, and, in case you lease multiple addresses, you an easily set one main IP address for your VPS.

You can receive and send e-mail messages of up to 50 MB in size.

Incremental backup enables you to accelerate the process of creating backup copies, after an initial complete server backup has been performed, by sending only modified and new data to the backup repository. A smaller amount of backup data makes for a significantly quicker backup process.

In order to perform a successful domain transfer, you have to meet the following requirements:

• You have be the owner of the domain or have access to the e-mail address indicated in the server as the e-mail of the administrator
• You need to unlock the domain for transfer with your current registrar and get an EPP code, which is required for most extensions (not for Croatian domains)
• The transfer must be initiated no later than 10 days prior to the expiration of the domain, so that it doesn’t expire during transfer
• The transfer must be performed at least 60 days after the domain has been registered or previously transferred.

All our servers can be leased on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual basis.

Hosted Exchange is a cloud platform which provides you with a reliable e-mail service, along with a significant cost reduction, since there are no initial investments in server infrastructure and licenses, and the monthly fee is completely transparent and defined by the number of open e-mail accounts. Exchange offers several possibilities for increasing productivity: from simple access using any device to automatic message, calendar, contact and map synchronization with high-level security and performance.

Server management requires basic server administrator knowledge. You’ll need it to administrate the operating system you’ll install (Linux or Windows) and configure the applications. If you require a dedicated server, but feel that you lack the technical skills needed to manage a server, we recommend that you take a look at our Premium support service.

Most domain extensions contain up to 60 characters, but keep in mind that a domain name should not be that long.
The point is for the domain to describe you or your activity in as few characters as possible.

MySQL is often one of the main problematic areas for hosting companies. Keeping MySQL stable can be tricky, and users sending requests to the base can slow everything down. That’s where MySQL Governor comes in. Its ability to pinpoint problematic users and limit them in real time is unprecedented in the industry as of yet. Offering support to the latest versions of MySQL and MariaDB, CloudLinux is an imperative part of any shared hosting.

In the world of business, having a domain has become just as common as having a telephone number. If there is no domain name displayed on your company’s advertising and business cards, the clients that prefer to browse products and services online, which is widely spread nowadays, might skip your content if they are unable to easily find that information. Nowadays, a registered domain and a high-quality website is a business priority, since it’s a very cheap way to present a company name and information to the general public in a way that is simple and quick.
Individuals also want to have their own domain for private or family websites and various activities, but often just to be able to create a private e-mail address on their own domain. If you’re an author, artist, activist, volunteer, or if you perform another kind of activity under your name, registering a domain that carries your full name will create a unique address that you can use for promotion.
A good domain name and a related e-mail address inspire confidence in users, so it’s quite obvious that an imaginary company “My Company Ltd.” would use a domain such as mycompany.com for their websites and an e-mail such as info@mycompany.com for communicating with their clients.

All domain-related options, including management, are at our disposal at the MyDataKnox user portal. You can access the user portal by signing up or logging in.

If you’re paying using a credit/debit card or PayPal, the service will be ready momentarily upon payment. If you’re paying via bank transaction, it can take up to 48 hours, however, you send us the payment confirmation in order to speed up the activation process.

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.

Of course. You can upgrade any MyDataKnox web hosting package to a larger one or choose a smaller one at any time.
All you have to do is request a change of package in the MyDataKnox user system, and the modification will be performed automatically upon payment of the price difference between your existing package and a larger one, or automatically when you request a smaller package.
In case you wish to change the type of your web hosting package, e.g. exchange a Standard hosting package for an Advanced one, our support team will perform the task for you completely free of charge.

An account, often referred to as “the cPanel user” or “cPanel account” is an account used by the end user for logging into the cPanel interface in order to manage their website or e-mail. It should be pointed out that the total number of users on a cPanel server, in terms of licenses, is determined by the number of active and suspended users on that server. Therefore, cPanel checks the number of users on a server and counts them, whether they are active or suspended.

If you’re paying using a credit/debit card or PayPal, the service will be ready momentarily.
If you’re paying through online banking, i.e. via bank transaction, we’ll launch the server as soon as the amount appears on our account, or as soon as you send us a payment confirmation.
In order to accelerate the process of installation following a bank transaction payment, please send us the payment confirmation to our e-mail address info@mydataknox.com

• CageFS
  CageFS is a virtualized file system which isolates every user and makes them invisible to each other within the system. CageFS prevents a great number of attacks, including most attacks performed through privilege escalation.
• PHP Selector
  Enable your users to select a specific PHP version that they require for their hosting account. PHP Selector provides premium flexibility by offering the users all the popular versions of PHP, which enables them to keep old scripts without the obligation to use newer PHP versions or change the code of their website. You are in charge of managing the PHP versions that are available to the users, as well as all available PHP extensions.
• Mod_lsapi
  Faster than any other way of serving PHP using an Apache server, while also being compatible with MPM Worker and not requiring configuration. It support PHP settings through .htacess and is completely compatible with PHP Selector.
• SecureLinks
  A kernel-level technology that prevents all known symlink attacks. This significantly increases the server’s security level and prevents hostile users from creating symbolic links between files.

Yes. The total number of users on a cPanel server, in terms of licenses, is determined by the number of active and suspended users on that server. Therefore, cPanel checks the number of users on a server and counts them, whether they are active or suspended.
