Hi,

I could not find any settings about Resource Limits notification both for admin and user account. It will be good to know when some user account reaching Resource Limits as they are defined in package.

For example if package CPU Quota is throttled to 100% how do we know that site will be chocked at some point, or RAM is limited to 1GB etc. I hope you are getting my point. The matter is how do we and especially users know when it is time to upgrade to more powerful package?

I did some experiment with one website that uses low cost package with Memory High limited to 384MB and Memory Max to 512MB and put that website in external monitoring hetrixtools. So occasionally getting notification from Hetrixtools that website was down. But adding all websites from server to external monitoring will not be productive.

So is this feature that missing in newest DirectAdmin or I'm missing knowledge how to set that up?
 
Hi,

no one using resources limits? No inputs. How we could monitor and getting notification when some user account bump into the roof of dedicated resources?

You can retrieve current and historical resource usage/limits using the API.

Thanks for reply, but not sure if I follow the logic with API. Don't really need to extract the data and put them on external place.

We already have everything inside DirectAdmin. The only thing that missing is simple alerting in real time to admin per user (optionally to user also) when user's account hit the top of allocated resources.

This way user will be aware of small occasional interruptions in his website availability and then could check historical resources usage data and eventually prompt for package upgrade when realize why that happen, why is his website throwing sometimes "Resources usage limitation" error page on load.

Else we risk that those occasional throttling will be interpreted as a problem with our resources limit as a hoster thus might produce cancelation of service and migration away.
