Web server hard disk configuration and expansion

Job ID: 36829135

Budget: $90 – $100 USD

We are looking for a skilled professional to assist us in changing the hard disk configuration of our Linux Hetzner server running on the Plesk platform. The server currently hosts four live websites and two websites under construction. We have two 240 GB hard disks installed, with one of them at 92% capacity and containing the filesystem. We believe the other hard disk can be utilized to expand the capacity of the first one. It is crucial that the live websites remain online throughout the configuration process.

Responsibilities:

Assess the current hard disk configuration and determine the best approach for expansion without causing downtime to the live websites.
Ensure seamless integration of the expanded storage with the existing filesystem and Plesk platform.
Test the functionality and performance of the websites after the configuration change to ensure they are working optimally.

Requirements:

Extensive experience in managing Linux servers, particularly Hetzner servers and the Plesk platform.
Strong knowledge of hard disk configuration and expansion techniques.
Proficiency in data migration and filesystem management.
Familiarity with web hosting environments and best practices to prevent downtime.
Effective communication skills to provide regular updates on the progress of the project.
Attention to detail to ensure the safety and integrity of the websites and their data.
Please provide your relevant experience and outline your proposed approach for this specific project, including the estimated timeline and potential challenges you anticipate.

Please feel free to ask any questions or request additional information before submitting your bid. Thank you!
