Resources

Overuse policy

Defines what happens if the subscription's usage of disk space and traffic reaches limit values:

Note: The overuse policy does not apply to the limits set on size of mailboxes. Therefore, even if you enable overuse, be sure to allocate enough disk space to mailboxes.

Disk space

The total amount of disk space allocated to the subscription. It includes disk space occupied by all files related to the subscription: contents of websites, databases, applications, mailboxes, log files and backup files.

Traffic

The amount of data that can be transferred from the subscription's websites and FTP/Samba shares during a month.

Notify upon reaching

Available only if overuse is not allowed. This sets the soft quota for disk space or traffic usage in order to prevent subscriptions from suspension. When the quota is reached, the Panel sends notifications to users and/or e-mail addresses specified at Settings > Notifications: Resource usage limits exceeded by subscription option.

Sites published with Web Presence Builder

The number of websites that can be published with Web Presence Builder.

Domains

The total number of domain names that the subscriber will be able to host within the subscription. This includes websites, web forwardings that point to websites hosted on other servers, and domain names on which a website or a web forwarding is not yet set up (domains with no hosting).

Mobile sites

The total number of websites that can be hosted with the UNITY Mobile online service, which optimizes sites for viewing on mobile devices. UNITY Mobile hosts the optimized site copies on their own servers.

How it works:

  1. A user creates a website with the domain name example.com and clicks the link Create Mobile Site in Control Panel.
  2. The user is prompted to specify a domain name for access to the mobile site copy. The user specifies mobile.example.com.
  3. The Panel connects to the UNITY Mobile hosting servers, sets up an account with UNITY Mobile for the domain name mobile.example.com.
  4. The user's browser opens the UNITY Mobile website, where the user is automatically logged in to their account and prompted to import their website from the Panel-managed server.
  5. After the site is imported and optimized for mobile viewing, it becomes accessible by the address mobile.example.com. The Panel's DNS server keeps a CNAME record pointing to the site on a UNITY Mobile server.

    The user can now perform the following operations on mobile site using links in Control Panel:

Validity period/Expiration Date

In service plan properties, it is Validity period: it is used only when a subscription is created: the Panel derives the subscription expiration date from it.

In subscription properties, it is Expiration date: At this date, the subscription will be suspended, meaning that all sites within the subscription will be suspended, their Web, FTP and mail services will no longer be accessible to the Internet users, and the subscriber and their users will not be able to log in to the Control Panel.
