Hostmonster Server Status Updates (Apr 2009)

Everything’s working alright with my website operation but I’m seeing MySQL failed in my server status – See mysql (5.0.75-community-log) failed at figure below. Wrote an e-mail to the supports but there’s no response back yet. I’ll contact the online chat staffs if this goes on. Besides the database errors, I’m not seeing any major issues with Hostmonster server, here’s the print screen of my server status with HM.

Hostmonster Server Status

It’s been nearly one year since I first signed up with Hostmonster. I’m not very happy with their customer supports due to the scam alert thing and several incidents where the customer supports are not telling the truth but besides that, everything has been good with the hosting company. I remained positive with the web host. In case you are looking for a cheap yet reliable hosting and are okay with moderate customer supports (well, nothing’s perfect, right?) then you should check out Hostmonster.


How is Hostmonster server doing?

Well it’s been quite some while I have reveal about Hostmonster server status. Truth is that I’m busy working on some other hosting review websites; but I’m not keeping my eyes close. Anyway, back to our question…

How’s Hostmonster server doing?

I have no problem with Hostmonster hosting service so far. The server I’m on is stable, responsive, and I rarely have to contact the support for helps. However what worries me is that the hard drive usage on my server had been increasing sharply. If you look closely to the diagram, you’ll see the usage of disk2 is over 90% – which is extremely high.

While the heavy usage has not affected any operation of my websites, the data signals that there might be an (serious) overselling issue with the company. Let’s hope this trend won’t be lasting long and hopefully folks at Hostmonster are dealing with the problem by now. I’ll keep you guys posted on the latest server status.
