There are many ways to access and interact with your data on your dedicated server:

  • Email access is available via WebMail, POP, IMAP, SMTP, and optionally ActiveSync.
  • File system access is available via SFTP and our web-based FileManager.
  • Shell access via SSH is available upon request; however, root-level access is not available to customers.
  • MySQL access is available directly from applications running on the server, from our Web-based database manager tool, and remotely over stunnel- or VPN-secured connections.

LuxSci automatically backs up the data on dedicated server for you. We make 7 daily snapshots kept in the same data center and 4 weekly snapshots kept in a geographically remote data center. We can restore individual files to the whole server from these backups, if necessary.

LuxSci can provide custom backup schedules and retention periods if required. There may be an additional fee for custom backups.

Upgrades and downgrades are simple. In many cases we can resize your server quickly and without any special fee.

Yes, you can have cron jobs. These will be enabled for you by LuxSci technical support.
