FAQ

  • What is a Dedicated Server?

    A dedicated server is one of the most powerful hosting options available. A dedicated server means it is exclusively for you, so you don’t have to share your dedicated resources with anyone else.

  • How can I access my server?

    Linux server – via an encrypted SSH connection.
    Server with Windows OS – via RDP.

  • Which control panels are available?

    We provide for free ISPmanager 6 Lite control panel to each server (market price — €7 /mo). If ISPmanager 6 is not suitable, you can purchase another panel – cPanel, Plesk. Full list is available in shopping cart.

  • What software can be installed on the server?

    By default, we offer a dozen Linux distributions, Windows Server, several dedicated control panels and some other software. You can pick it either in the cart during the purchase or in the Unihost Client Area. You can also install any software you want, except for any that may harm the server itself or other Unihost servers.

  • Can I order additional IPs?

    Yes, it is possible to order additional IPs. You can learn more about the pricing on additional IPs for the servers in the Client Area or during the purchase procedure.
    For detailed information, please contact online support.

  • Do you provide IPv6?

    Yes, you can order both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

  • What is RAID?

    RAID is a technology that allows you to combine the storage drives into a single array, which helps to prevent data loss if one of the drives gets broken. RAID comes in various kinds:

    • RAID 0, used to combine two or more drives in a single array. More common in personal data storage, rarely used in business due to instabilities and proneness to failure.
    • RAID 1, a.k.a. mirroring. The second drive becomes a carbon copy of the first one. If any of them fails, all the data can still be restored from the other one.
    • RAID 10 (or RAID 0+1) is a combination of two RAID 0 arrays into a RAID 1 array. You basically get a combined array of two drives, as well as its backup copy. RAID 10 requires a minimum of four drives.
  • What is the difference between Software RAID and Hardware RAID?

    Software RAID means that the repartitioning will happen at the OS level, while Hardware RAID repartitions the drives before the OS is even loaded. The latter is more reliable and fast since the server doesn’t have to waste resources to manage the RAID structure. Besides, Hardware RAID is the only option that can survive the OS reinstallation.

  • What should I do if the server does not respond?

    You can reboot it from the Client Area. While there, you can also check the server’s stats and reinstall the OS. If for whatever reason you can’t do this, contact the Unihost support.

  • Can I get a physical access to the server?

    No. Unihost dedicated servers are located in secure facilities and we cannot grant free access to the servers due to the possible risks. Only people who have direct access to the servers are our certified employees tasked with maintenance, and even their access level depends on the tasks at hand.

  • If the hardware of my server goes down, who will be held responsible?

    All our hardware is routinely tested. If any component fails, we will replace it with an identical one, covering all bills.

  • Which Tier does your data center correspond to?

    All our data centers correspond to Tier 3 or Tier 4.

  • How long does the installation and provision of the server take?

    Depending on the server configuration:
    Standard configuration – 1 to 5 business days.
    Non-standard – from 5 to 15 working days

  • What is the minimal billing period?

    We are working only on a prepaid basis and the minimum server order period is 1 month. We also offer payment for 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. If you need a server with a different billing cycle (for example, 2 or 5 months) please contact the sales department, and we will issue a new invoice.

  • Are your dedicated servers limited in any way?

    There are no limitations. You can use the server for any number of websites, e-mails, domains etc. We provide complete access to the server at the root level.

  • How do you issue the invoice?

    Invoices on the service renewal are issued automatically with an email notification. Invoices are issued based on the billing cycle.

    Billing cycle – Date of the invoice issue

    • 1 month – 14 days before the due date
    • 3 months – 21 days before the due date
