Weve had great results wrapping some common cPanel background crons (like daily backups, system updates, stats processing etc) inside an LVE. Assigning limits to these kinds of processes keeps more resources available for hosting accounts, resulting in more uniform performance and happier clients. A way for setting this up from WHM or a special command-line tool would be very nice. Suggestion for processes that could run in an LVE: - daily backups - system and OS updates - stats processing - spam/virus filter - many other system crons The current way to do this is by adapting cPanel scripts and crons using the lve_suwrapper and lve_wrapper commands (which needs wheel group configuration). This has some disadvantages: - cPanel updates may/will break the changes - lots of manual work - unclear where all the crons are located - limits can only be changed through the command line (do not show up in WHM LVE Manger) - manually setting up wheel groups Probably this feature would be useful for DirectAdmin users as well
