Dear Readers,
I wish to learn how other administrators monitor their business websites after they are transferred to a dedicated server.
Besides the most typical metrics such as CPU usage and RAM utilization, what other factors do you pay attention to during the first couple of days?
For instance:
Do you consider the level of the server performance and separate the disk performance?
How much attention do you pay to various database speed indicators?
Do you enable notifications that inform you about failed services, disk capacity, or problems related to the network?
How long do you keep working in the previous hosting environment before considering the transition to a new hosting solution as complete?
I am especially interested in practical control measures that can identify potential issues prior to the time when users start complaining.
What data are included in your post-buying monitoring checklist, and are there other important aspects that you consider important in light of your previous experience?
