VPS Support Service Policy - Rules and Guidelines

General Support

• 99.9% Network Uptime
• Patching & Security Updates / Audit
  Security patching and maintenance of the host machine which may or may not include patching of related VPS software by virtue of host updates.

Hardware Support

• Monitoring & Security Audit****
  Our team of highly trained professionals are working around the clock monitoring and assessing our servers to the latest standards and will notify you should there be any concerns.
• Disaster Recovery
  We provide disaster recovery of the host server should there occur unforeseeable down time, damage or data loss. This includes natural disasters or other circumstances that may cause physical damage or corruption of the data center on a large scale. Disaster recovery is limited to the operation of our data center and cannot be used for:
  • accidental deletion of VPS data by a user or a shared FTP user
  • external attacks to VPS content through virus or SQL injection
  • content uploaded to the client VPS that was previously compromised on a local machine
• Slowness & Load Issues
  Should you experience load issues or you find your VPS is sluggish we will investigate the VPS for performance based on the load that is placed on it and will recommend areas for optimization. If the issue is related to 3rd party software*** installed or running on the VPS, myhosting.com support may provide direction at the customers own risk. Specific changes to code base may or may not be included and are also advised at clients own risk. Recommended changes to 3rd party software*** should be investigated by the developer or maintainer and further optimized from there.
