@Sandino,

Assume that the addon websites are popular.

In other words sites with traffic.

Read with care next time

I truely agree with sandino aswell.

You can have many sites that can have traffic but are not high on resources and all. so a server can have more than 10,000 sites on one server and can handle the load just perfectly.

All you need to see for overselling is if the load of the server goes high all the time, but also this can be due to wrong configuration of the server and all.

Thanks & Regards

Note that my info is about the Warez world, you all know forums use high resources compared to others. If you disagree open up Dreamweaver and check the main php core of a forum system.

BTW: Thread updated.

EDIT: I'm waiting on you Mr.Happy, you are watching the thread. Spam us with your wise words

<?php
//GET SERVER LOADS
$loadresult = @exec('uptime');
preg_match("/averages?: ([0-9\.]+),[\s]+([0-9\.]+),[\s]+([0-9\.]+)/",$loadresult,$avgs);

//GET SERVER UPTIME
$uptime = explode(' up ', $loadresult);
$uptime = explode(',', $uptime[1]);
$uptime = $uptime[0].', '.$uptime[1];
$data .= "Server Load Averages $avgs[1], $avgs[2], $avgs[3] <br />";
$data .= "Server Uptime $uptime";
echo $data;
?>

Upload that to your hosting account and it will tell you the real truth about your hosting.

You know l0cal, there are ways you can actually see who's using how much resources, allowing you to... suspend them *GASP*

@.mac, Im posted this in the "client" view, and not the server admin view.

@Mr.Happy, your code isn't working, I get:
Server Load Averages , ,
Server Uptime ,

I have exec disabled on the server.

Again, allowing unlimited addon domains has NOTHING to do with overselling. If a client has a few domains that are heavy on the CPU, it's very easy to detect and suspend it. Not all hosts are morons.

Regarding the script; it's kind of logical that if you have the functions required disabled it won't work, right?

[l0calh0st]

@.mac, not every host is so fucking smart as you.
And I'm also not as smart as you, I really don't know why that script isn't working lol.

<?php

error_reporting(0);

if (ini_get('disable_functions')) {
    $disabled_funcs=array_map('trim',explode(',',ini_get('disable_functions')));
}

$action=$_GET["action"];

if ($action=="phpinfo") {
    /*
    Uncoment the line below to allow users to view PHP Info for your
    server. This potentially allows access to information a malicious
    user could use to find weaknesses in your server.
    */
    #phpinfo();
} else {
    $users[0]="Unavailable";
    $users[1]="--";
    $loadnow="Unavailable";
    $load15="--";
    $load30="--";
    if (in_array('exec',$disabled_funcs)) {
        $load=file_get_contents("/proc/loadavg");
        $load=explode(' ',$load);
        $loadnow=$load[0];
        $load15=$load[1];
        $load30=$load[2];
    } else {
        $reguptime=trim(exec("uptime"));
        if ($reguptime) {
            if (preg_match("/, *(\d) (users?), .*: (.*), (.*), (.*)/",$reguptime,$uptime)) {
                $users[0]=$uptime[1];
                $users[1]=$uptime[2];
                $loadnow=$uptime[3];
                $load15=$uptime[4];
                $load30=$uptime[5];
            }
        }
    }
    if (in_array('shell_exec',$disabled_funcs)) {
        $uptime_text=file_get_contents("/proc/uptime");
        $uptime=substr($uptime_text,0,strpos($uptime_text," "));
    } else {
        $uptime=shell_exec("cut -d. -f1 /proc/uptime");
    }
    $days=floor($uptime/60/60/24);
    $hours=str_pad($uptime/60/60%24,2,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT);
    $mins=str_pad($uptime/60%60,2,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT);
    $secs=str_pad($uptime%60,2,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT);
    $phpver=phpversion();
    $mysqlver=mysql_get_client_info();
    $zendver=zend_version();
    echo "<load>$loadnow</load>\n";
    echo "<uptime>$days Days $hours:$mins:$secs</uptime>\n";

WHMCS?

[Mac]

Not trying to be smart, but assuming a host is overselling based on addon domains...

Happy's script won't work if you have exec disabled, and load/uptime in WHMCS's script won't work if you have explode and file_get_contents disabled...
