My question is does having an SSD improve the server performance or is it just fine in a HDD? I'm trying to decide if I'm going to get 6gb more ram so I can dedicate more ram or get an SSD. Right now I'm running it entirely headless with Xeon x5650 (3 cores per server (3 servers)) 12gb ram (2.8gb per server) 320gb 7200rpm HDD Only things the server does are warframe and it's my storage server (only 2 reasons I have it). Idk how the warframe dedicated servers are effected by drive speed. I'm not having any issues/performance problems but anything I can do to improve user experience would be nice. I use my main server with 7200RPM hdd no problem with that and even running ubuntu host and windows guest in a vm and it is not giving any perf issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not running into any issues performance wise was just curious if it would help, thanks Ill look at grabbing some more ram then so i can start up a 4th VM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't give you any hard dates, but I'll try to get something working soon-ish. Ok, thank you @maciejs! That is good news though. i do really hope that you guys also start considering supporting Linux, so it can be hosted in a more professional manner,.

spiedie Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 I've been working on tools for hosting for a while now. As it's quite stable at the moment (no changes since U21), i might as well share it here now. It's still a work in progress, and might not be as easy to set up as i want it to be (there is an app included to do the required setup). Source code Soon (TM). https://github.com/Spiedie/WarframeServerManager @dreamquestwhen choosing VPS, make sure it's not IP banned by DE. I know AWS EC2 is banned. Estimated requirements from the my readme: ~500-700 MB ram per server instance + OS ram requirements ~1 core per server instance ~20GB disk space per 6 instances you want to run If your server is running windows, you don't need any VMs, making ram requirements a lot easier to manage (using 9GB ram for 20 instances on windows 8.1). @maciejs "Free for all" is kinda confusing in the selection, as Annihilation is commonly referred to as Free for all (FFA). I think "Public" would make things less confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 240Hz i started having issues with the gpu (server hardware integrated, just meant to produce output, its really bad) when running 18 or more instances. Note that this is a dual socket E5-2670 (v1) system, so 16 cores and 32 threads. For comparison, most modern quad-core systems can run 6 instances at 60Hz.

Just want to say thanks alot for the tool Spiedie it is working great The tool let me condense my VMs down to one virtual machine with 4c/8t and 8gb of ram. All 6 servers running 60fps and while i set it up switched to VirtIO on my VMs to speed things up. Now i just gotta nab an SSD (which now i only need a 128gb) and ill be golden.

Abenoki Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Another question I have for the folks with better network knowledge than me. I have a 5up/45down connection. I pay to have no data cap (got the line specifically for hosting these servers) so data used isn't an issue. My question is should I use 60hz or 30hz for my 6 servers or will I be ok on my upload bandwidth at 60hz? I want to make sure all servers can be used at the same time on my 5mb upload speed.

They do not use much of download speed though if you plan on hosting more then lets say 6 servers than you start to run into issues I guess with your up-speed. I have myself a 40up/300down connection and that handles it fine so far with 24 instances fully used (PVP event). Nep_Blanc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiedie Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 For reference, 24 instances at default (60fps, highBandwidth=0) during quick steel event (6 players per instance) was about 12 Mbit/s upload. I think 8 players was 600kbit/s per instance (this was during snowball events). Total data during last snowball event, 4 day weekend (close to new years eve?) was 300GB uploaded and 120GB downloaded.

maciejs Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Yes, it's been a while since I measured, but last time I checked, 1 client needs roughly 10kb/s (with some decent action going around, can probably peak higher than this, though). So 8 clients would be around 600kbit as @spiedie mentioned. That's with high-bandwidth=0, 60hz will be more than this (not exactly twice, but more), so let's say 1Mbit/s. That means 5Mbit up for 6 servers would be cutting it close (assuming 6 full games going on). I'd recommend 30 (or a mix of 30 & 60). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abenoki Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Alright thank you for the info, that's what I figured. I knew down bandwidth wasn't an issue as they probably wouldn't use much but my up being 5mb I figured 60hz on all might saturate it. Unfortunately don't have higher up options without spending a relative fortune in comparison lol. I moved them all to 30hz just to be safe.

spiedie Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I've been having a few issues loading instances lately. Sometimes they freeze as seen in the first spoiler (last part of the log, unedited including the times at the end). This results in following instances to start and freeze like in the second spoiler (full log, freezes after "Found 26 cache blocks..."). Not only does freezing like this cause an instance to be inaccessible, but if more are launched after, it takes down all 5 other instances running on the engine (all players in those 5 instances disconnect and host migrate, see third spoiler). Is it possible to have these loading actions time out at some point? afaik, disk activity is 0%, so it seems to be a locking issue. Having these instances close themselves would already solve a lot of the issues.
