You’ve just bought a new dedicated server, what should you do before moving?
Check what is promissed and what is given!
- Check the CPU
# dmesg | grep "CPU:"
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz (2813.54-MHz 686-class CPU) - Memory
#dmesg | grep memory
real memory = 1072627712 (1022 MB)
avail memory = 1040084992 (991 MB) - Hard Disk
#di -th | grep Total
Total 104.4G 1.2G 94.8G 9%
- Number of IPs (I’ve masked my ips with ?)
#ifconfig -a | grep inet
inet ??.???.??.?? netmask 0xffffffe0 broadcast ??.???.?.?
inet ??.???.??.?? netmask 0xffffffe0 broadcast ??.???.?.?
inet ??.???.??.?? netmask 0xffffffe0 broadcast ??.???.?.?
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
