VPS for Web and Email Setup
Hi,
I am tyring to setup 2 VPS, one for Web and MySQL and one for Email. We want to offer shared hosting services.
VPS 1 will have CPanel and SSD and will be the Web and MySQLServer.
VPS 2 will be an Email Server with big disk capacity and low CPU and RAM.
Is this a good setup? How can I achieve this?
Do I still need Cpanel on VPS 2?
Please share also some links for some guides/tutorials.
Thanks in advanceCebu Web Solutions - Cpanel Web Hosting | Cebu Web Designs

You could easily point the MX records for each domain to a secondary server that is handling mail, however, you'll need to figure out a way to manage email account administration on the secondary server.
I could see this working by disabling the email options in cPanel from your users. You'll then have to have a separate portal for email account administration. (You wouldn't need cPanel on the second server)
You should also benefit from the dual servers by setting up redundant DNS.
Is there a reason you are aiming for a setup like this?iWebFusion.Net - Shared / Reseller / VPS / Bare Metal / Colocation / IP Transit / Networking

The main reason it to cut costs. SSD is expensive and Email needs more space.
I got some useful info from this link:

It suggests that I need to disable the Create Email icon in CPanel and instead clients will need to create the email accounts on the Email Server (VPS 2).Cebu Web Solutions - Cpanel Web Hosting | Cebu Web Designs
