Linux server. What should I do to keep it always running 100%? The maintenance schedule of my webserver?
Posted on 07 July 2010 by Abidoon
Hello I have a server with 2gb memory, 250gb, running a webserver (apache), well, the basic LAMP.
Im using Centos (latest) and running torrentflux on it only. I would like to know what tasks do I have to do from time to time to keep it running perfectly, and tasks to maintain the server and the installation always Ok. Im new to linux so that why I speak like a noob, but I learn fast… so Im not asking how to do it, just what is good practice to do.
Thanks!

Have you set it up to patch itself? Just because it’s Linux doesn’t mean there won’t still be patches required so that should be most of your maintenance tasks. Roll your logs on a regular basis. Other than that it will be fine, apache’s pretty robust. As long as you have configured it correctly.
