up_the_ironswoo, i have our new blades getting their IPMI IP from DHCP static leases; a monitor / kb has never physically touched those servers and yet they are ready to sell; bitchen...

brycecup_the_irons: "However, see the next section" --> "If you're looking for a managed backup service/solution, see the next section."
up_the_irons: "Backup storage space is provided as a limited / chroot shell account, on a separate server, with many standard archiving / backup tools available, such as the following,". 1) Lots of slashes, maybe change the "archiving / backup tools" to "archival and backup tools". 2), End that line with a colon:
(Granted, #2 is a matter of taste, but it's how I was raised/taught)
up_the_irons: Also, just curious what the managed monitoring of backups is, or what it entails?
up_the_irons: I would also like to see more information on why I would choose ARP's backup services: e.g. is it reliable, do I save on bandwidth costs, is it fast, etc
up_the_irons: As regards billing... Will you be just looking at the quotas at the end of the month? (allowing users to delete everything on the day before) Or will you be doing it Amazon-style, fully metered, (or at least measured every day)
?
Final question - I assume there will be an addition to the portal for quota usage?
Would be cool too if quota usage was graphed in Cactus alongside bandwidth.
(or is it Cacti? eff grammar)

brycectoddf: I know the manual way to do it :P up_the_irons asked for feedback, and that's what I was giving.
If "the manual way" to do everything was the only way, I would be responsible for setting up my own VPS just for backups... but ARP wants to make life easier (and cheaper)

up_the_ironstoddf: actually the 'quota' command works well in the backup account, so you would just use that
brycec: great points, thanks
brycec: i will try to answer those questions in the next draft :)
Woet: we could get an SSD in a dedi, yeah; what size are you looking for?
