Re: Dedicated Full Machine Backup

Thanks for the reply. The OS is Windows 2008 R2. And the reason for wanting a full bare-metal restore capability is due to the complexity of configuration and various software that's installed. Starting from a clean install of the OS, with all the files restored, the configuration is 4-8 hours to ge...

Dedicated Full Machine Backup

So I have a dedicated "full machine", Windows 2008 R2. I'm looking for recommendations to back up the server. I intend to host a website on it, not games. So I'm not really looking for ways to backup individual files. I'm really looking for a "bare-metal" recovery solution. I'm a...

Re: Unmanaged Win VPS CS 1.6 Config Question

Just as an FYI follow-up - I just purchased a new VPS. Loaded with win 2008. Copied the same config onto it. With no srcdsfpsboost running or anything, the exact same config runs at 1000 fps. Also, interestingly, an empty server is running far less CPU utilization than it does on windows 2012. I'm t...

Re: Unmanaged Win VPS CS 1.6 Config Question

No specific reason. Personally, I hate it. We have it because it's what Boris set up. That's the only answer I have.

Re: Unmanaged Win VPS CS 1.6 Config Question

This is with very low CPU usage on the VPS, and no players on the server in question. This is the same on both of our Windows VPS's. Both are Windows 2012. It's not something as simple as CPU usage. And it's not in the game config, because, as I said before, I can put the exact same game config on m...

Re: Unmanaged Win VPS CS 1.6 Config Question

confirmed that HPET is enabled. Set sys_ticrate to 0.

No change. Still shows max of 500.

When I said I was seeing 500 or 1000, that was when the server is idle. With 28-32 players we're seeing it drop as low as 100.

Unmanaged Win VPS CS 1.6 Config Question

Our VPS is running Windows 2012. We are running srcdsfpsboost.exe. We have HPET enabled on the server. When I run CS in console, at top of the console, it displays a max of 500 fps. I can load the exact same config (copied the files from one server to another) onto a 32-bit Windows 2003, running in ...
