Disk, Bandwidth and Resource Management in Reseller Hosting

Reseller Hosting Resource Management

Efficient resource management (disk space, bandwidth, CPU, RAM, etc.) is essential in Reseller Hosting to maintain stability and prevent performance issues. This guide explains how to monitor and balance resources through WHM.

1. What is Resource Management?

It’s the process of distributing server resources fairly among client accounts to prevent overuse by any single user. Proper management ensures performance and stability for all hosted websites.

2. Configuring Packages in WHM

When creating a new package (Add a Package), set the following limits carefully:

  • Disk Space (MB): Allocate space for web files and emails.
  • Bandwidth (MB): Define monthly data transfer limits.
  • Email/FTP/Databases: Adjust according to client needs.
  • Addon Domains: Limit the number of additional websites per account.

3. Balanced Distribution

If your total disk space is 100 GB, distribute it reasonably (e.g., 10 clients × 10 GB each). This prevents overselling and ensures consistent service quality.

4. Monitoring Usage

Go to WHM → Account Information → List Accounts to view usage details for each client. The View Bandwidth Usage section helps identify heavy traffic accounts.

5. Handling Overusage

  • Soft Limits: Notify users before exceeding limits.
  • Hard Limits: Suspend service automatically once limits are reached.

6. Modifying Resources

To upgrade or downgrade account limits, use WHM → Modify an Account. Adjust disk space, bandwidth, or package assignments as needed.

7. Performance Monitoring

Regular monitoring prevents downtime and resource abuse. SosyoHost provides automated monitoring and resource alerts to keep your reseller server stable.

Note: Smart resource allocation leads to higher customer satisfaction and overall system stability.
