User interface (LVE Manager)

LVE Manager is a plugin for most popular control panels including cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin and ISPmanager (InterWorx coming soon). It allows you to control and monitor limits, and set limits on per package bases.

LVE Manager is installed by default on most servers. If it is missing you can always install it by running:

$ yum install lvemanager

CloudLinux installation wizard

Overview

CloudLinux Installation Wizard allows you to easily install and set up CloudLinux OS components on your server with cPanel, Plesk or DirectAdmin.

Set up

As you have CloudLinux OS installed, navigate to CloudLinux LVE Manager in your control panel. CloudLinux Installation Wizard starts automatically if lvemanager package is installed for the first time (not updated).

To start setting up your CloudLinux OS, click Start Wizard, otherwise click Skip Wizard, and you will be redirected to the LVE Manager Dashboard.

Note

Installation statuses of all components are duplicated inside their corresponding boxes on the Dashboard. All Wizard actions are available there as well. Dashboard will be automatically updated as soon as the installation process finishes.

The next step is selecting required components to be installed.

Click Finish and Install to complete installation or click Skip Wizard to go back to the Dashboard.

You can find a complete description of the CloudLinux components below.

CloudLinux components

CageFS

A virtualized per-user file system encapsulates each customer into a ‘cage’ preventing them from seeing each other files and viewing sensitive information (e.g., system files)

Toggle the sliders to enable CageFS by default for new and/or existing users.

Note

CageFS is a requirement for PHP Selector operation.

LSAPI

It is the fastest and most reliable way to serve PHP pages for Apache web-servers, a drop-in replacement for SuPHP, FCGID, RUID2, and ITK.

LSAPI requires CRIU to operate and we also recommend you to use mod_suexec. You can find details in our documentation.

MySQL Governor

Monitors MySQL usage to throttle abusers, preventing server overload and improving overall performance.

Note

MySQL Governor can be automatically installed only with cPanel/WHM and DirectAdmin - use CLI instructions available here in all other cases.

We recommend you to create a full database backup before the MySQL Governor installation.

Node.js Selector

Allows end users to create Node.js applications and select the specific version of Node.js and other parameters.

Here you can choose versions to be installed and the version to be used as default.

Ruby Selector

Allows end users to select the specific version of Ruby they need.

Here you can choose Ruby versions to be installed.

Python Selector

Allows end users to select the default version of Python and set the required versions for installation.

Here you can choose Python versions to be installed.

PHP Selector

Allows end users to select the specific version of PHP they need, with over 120 PHP extensions to choose from.

Go to LVE Manager settings to set up PHP Selector options and parameters. Read more in the PHP Selector documentation.

Note

CageFS should be enabled for PHP Selector to operate.

When the components to be installed are selected and configured, and installation is started, you will be redirected to the LVE Manager | Dashboard.

Installation process and possible errors

Installation status is displayed throughout the process in the Dashboard. Click Installing to show modules installation state.

All installed modules are displayed on the Dashboard. When installation is completed successfully, you will see the following status.

If you decide to remove failed module or a module to be installed by clicking the (X) button, a confirmation dialog will appear.

After confirming the action, the module will disappear from the list.

If module installation fails, the Installing button changes to Warning and the module indicator will turn red.

  • Click to download the error log.
  • Click to try to install a module again.
  • Click to remove a specific module from the installation queue. The module will be displayed on the Dashboard but will not be installed.

If module auto-installation fails, you will see that the module indicator turns yellow.

In this case, you can download a log for details and try to install the module again.

PHP Slow Site analyzer is a new tool that generates daily reports for the server administrator with information about the top N slow PHP-based domains and URLs. Slow Site analyzer tracks all PHP-based requests and selects slow ones by certain rules.

Note

Slow Site analyzer is not available for CloudLinux 6.

Installation

To install the tool, run the following command:

yum update lvemanager --enablerepo=cloudlinux-updates-testing

Uninstall

To uninstall the tool, run the following commands:

yum downgrade lvemanager --enablerepo=cloudlinux-updates-testing
yum erase alt-php-ssa cl-web-monitoring-tool

Website monitoring tab

You can configure the Website monitoring tool and Slow Site analyzer and view the daily reports in the LVE Manager -> Website monitoring tab.

There are Main, PHP Site analyzer, and Settings subtabs here.

Main

This subtab views the latest report (for the previous day) of the Website monitoring tool.

Remember that report is created every 24 hours and all changes in configuration (the Settings tab) or in the list of domains will be applied for the next 24 hours (from midnight).

  • Total number of requests - requests that were sent to all domains, existing on the servers

  • Successful requests - the number of requests for all domains with

  • Requests with errors - the number of requests for all domains which status code is not 200

  • Not started requests due to short check interval - this metric is used to adjust configuration. If it is not equal 0, an admin should increase the value of Requests sending interval, because the tool does not fit into this interval to send requests to all domains.

  • Slowest websites in 24h and Websites with most errors in 24h - in these sections you can find the number of domains that was exposed here.

PHP Slow Site analyzer

Note

The Slow Site analyzer is not available for CloudLinux 6.

This is an example of a report from the Slow Site analyzer. The report shows the number of slow requests per domain and its URLs and the average duration of each slow URL.

You can find the explanation of the Slow requests density in period here.

Settings

Here, an admin can config the Website monitoring and the PHP Site analyzer.

Note

All settings which was changed after starting Website monitoring and Slow site analyzer will be applied for the next 24h (from midnight).

To enable or disable Website monitoring, use the following slider.

  • Top N slow websites to show - this number (N) will be used to select the top N domains from the list of all domains, sorted by response duration (Slowest websites list). And this number also will be used to select the top N domains from the list of all domains, sorted by amount of errors (Websites with most errors list).
  • Requests sending interval - this is a period in minutes between requests to the same domain.
  • Domain response timeout - if there is no answer from the website for this period of time, the Website Monitoring tool will regard this behaviour as the HTTP 408 error.
  • Concurrent requests limit - how many concurrent requests can be done by the Website Monitoring tool.

To enable or disable the Slow site analyzer, use the following slider.

Note

Slow Site analyzer is not available for CloudLinux 6.

  • Top N slow websites to show - this number (N) will be used to select the top N domains from the list of all domains, marked as slow.
  • Top slow URLs - this number (N) will be used to select the top N URLs for each domain, marked as slow.
  • Slow request duration - the duration of a request in seconds.
  • Slow requests number & Analysis time - how many requests with a certain request duration should be done in time to mark the domain as a slow one.
  • Slow requests density threshold can be in the interval [0..1], by default it is 0.8. The density threshold can be disabled. And the Domains and URLs Ignore List can be specified.

What is the density threshold?

We try to find the most interesting requests for the optimisation from all number of requests to domains during 24 hours. The Density threshold parameter helps to find the most visited URLs and the most popular requests.

A density threshold is a numerical measure of some type of correlation, meaning the power of the statistical relationship between slow requests and all requests to the domain. If this parameter is enabled then the resulting table will contain slow requests that have exceeded the specified threshold. Requests with the highest density are usually the most distributed per day and are considered valuable to users, thus interesting for optimization.

Slow requests that represent bursts of activity and are weakly related to all activity per domain typically have a low density and will be weeded out.

Email notifications

Email notifications are created by the Web monitoring tools.

Reseller interface

Reseller interface is designed to manage limits for resellers’ end users, to monitor statistics and the history of resource usage and to modify reseller’s end user packages limits.

Log in under a particular reseller credentials to have access to the following functionality:

  • Current Usage tab - allows to monitor resellers’ end users resource usage at the moment;
  • Historical Usage tab - allows to control resellers’ end users resource usage history;
  • Users tab with the list of all resellers’ end users allows to view and manage all the reseller’s end user limits;
  • Statistics tab displays the statistics of resource usage for particular timeframe or particular reseller's end user;
  • Options tab allows to set LVE Faults email notifications.
  • Packages tab allows to manage reseller’s end user packages limits.

Please note that reseller can manage all his end users via Reseller Interface. Reseller cannot manage INODE or MYSQL limits, neither his own nor for his users.

LVE plugins branding

Note

Requires LVE Manager 2.0-33+

It is possible to apply branding to the LVE Plugins in cPanel end users’ interface. To brand the cPanel end users' interface please do the following:

  • Create a script that will patch LVE Manager files (with branding data, for example, image and logo) after every update of lvemanager rpm package;

  • Locate this script in /usr/share/l.v.e-manager/branding_script;

  • Make this script executable by running the command:

chmod a+x /usr/share/l.v.e-manager/branding_script

When done, the branding script will be executed while every update of lvemanager package and all branding changes will be applied in the end user’s interface.

Note

Modifying the LVE Manager WHM plugin (/usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/CloudLinux.cgi) via branding_script is not allowed.

User message for PHP version

Since version 1.0-4 LVE Manager acquired a feature of adding user messages to PHP versions*. To add a message, you should create a file in /opt/alt/phpXX/name_modifier with a message that you want to be shown to a user.

For example, if you need to add the following message Don't use this PHP version to PHP version 4.4, you should create the following file:

/opt/alt/php44/name_modifier:

echo 'Don`t use this php version' > /opt/alt/php44/name_modifier

As a result, LVE Manager will automatically pick up this message and will show it in web-interface to administrator (see Figure 1.1 for cPanel, Figure 1.2 for DirectAdmin) and to user (see Figure 2.1 for cPanel, Figure 2.2 for DirectAdmin). You can add messages to other PHP versions this way as well.
Figure 1.1 cPanel LVE Manager (administrator)
Figure 1.2 DirectAdmin LVE Manager (administrator)
Figure 2.1 cPanel LVE Manager (user)
Figure 2.2 DirectAdmin LVE Manager (user)

Note

*For cPanel and DirectAdmin only.

Client plugins

Resource Usage client plugin

Client resource usage plugin for cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin allows host’s end users to view and monitor resource usage.

Go to your control panel and click CPU and concurrent connection usage.

Here you can see three tabs:

  • Dashboard: displays the general condition of your site. If your site is limited, this displays on the Dashboard.
  • Current usage: here you can find full information on the resource usage displayed in charts and tables.
  • Snapshot: server snapshots with processes list and database and HTTP queries.

Dashboard

Go to the Dashboard tab to see the general condition of your site. If your site is limited, you can see this on the Dashboard with the resource you are limited over. To see detailed information about resource usage, click Details.

If your site is not limited, you will see the plain Dashboard.

Current Usage

Go to the Current Usage tab to see the detailed information about resource usage on your server.

Note

It's possible to add the normalized_user_cpu = N value to the /etc/sysconfig/cloudlinux file. So you can see for example CPU Usage X/200 (%) in the scenario where a user's LVE CPU limit is 200%. If the value is equal to Y, CPU Usage cannot get greater than 100%.

Current Usage table

The Current Usage table displays resource usage.

Warning

Inodes usage is displayed if it is enabled and Inodes limits are set for the user. cPanel only.

  • Description: resource name
  • Usage: resource usage value
  • Limit: resource usage limit
  • Fault: number of faults

Filters

You can filter charts and the Usage table by timeframe and time unit (day, hour, minute).

Charts

The following resources are displayed in charts:

  • CPU
  • Virtual Memory
  • Physical Memory
  • Input/Output
  • Io operations
  • Entry Processes
  • Processes

All charts have the color legend:

  • Green — average resource usage
  • Red — limit set for this parameter
  • Blue — database
  • Green-cyan — faults (limit violations)

You can also see the Faults chart with all faults for all resources.

Usage

The Usage table displays information on each resource usage sorted by timeframe and time unit.

  • From-To: period
  • A: average
  • L: limit
  • F: faults

Use controls below the table to navigate through it.

Snapshot

Go to the Snapshot tab to see server snapshots with processes list and database and HTTP queries.

You can choose a date and a snapshot to display in the table.

Server processes snapshots

In case when a CloudLinux user hits LVE limits, appropriate faults are generated and lvestats package generates server processes snapshot. Snapshot is a list of running applications and a list of running MySQL queries right after the faults happened.

Snapshots allow users to investigate the reason of account hitting its limits. Several snapshots are generated for each incident. An incident is a state when faults are generated in a close time period. The time period is configurable. By default, if faults are generated in 300 seconds time period, we consider them as a single incident.

The snapshot configuration options are available in

/etc/sysconfig/lvestats.config/SnapshotSaver.cfg
  • period_between_incidents = 300 by default, time in seconds
  • snapshots_per_minute = 2 by default, maximum number of snapshots per minute
  • max_snapshots_per_incident = 10 by default, maximum number of snapshots for an incident

To access Snapshots you can also use lve-read-snapshot utility.

Note

The list of processes in a snapshot is close but not similar to the real processes list when faults were generated. It happens because of delay when the faults are happened and the snapshot is taken by the system.

The list of MySQL queries is an output of a query:

SELECT command, time, info FROM information_schema.processlist

WHERE user = '%username';

Process list

Displays information on processes in the selected snapshot.

  • PID: process ID
  • CMD: what command was run
  • CPU: CPU usage
  • MEM: memory usage

Database queries (cPanel only)

Displays information on database queries in the selected snapshot.

HTTP queries

Displays information on HTTP queries in the selected snapshot.
