Hardware issues
Following on from trying to identify software issues the same is true with hardware faults. Defective
hardware can bring all tenants to a standstill and the same is true for a single tenant dedicated server.
However it is still much easier to resolve. For example memory problems that cause leakage or
intermittent corruption of data can be near impossible to isolated to just a certain tenant. This is an
important aspect with VPS because although technically and logically virtual servers are segregated
data leakage still does happen. This can make troubleshooting extremely difficult to isolate and often
the only solution is to migrate the virtual server to another physical server.
