Network SLA Exclusions

  • Scheduled Network Maintenance - occasionally network maintenance will be required. Delhi Webstore will do everything possible to minimize and avoid downtime during this maintenance. You will receive prior notification of upcoming maintenance at the email address we have on file. Scheduled maintenance periods are not eligible for SLA credits.
  • Hardware Maintenance - on rare occasions, the hardware in your Dedicated Server may need maintenance or replacement. Delhi Webstore will do everything possible to minimize any downtime in these situations per our hardware replacement SLA. Any downtime incurred as a result of this maintenance will not be counted towards our network SLA.
  • Software Maintenance - an important part of managing a dedicated server is keeping the software up to date. If you choose to have Delhi Webstore manage your server, occasional software updates will be required to address security or performance issues. Usually you will experience little or no downtime in these situations, but we cannot guarantee a specific amount of time in all situations.
  • Malicious Attacks - if a third party not associated with Delhi Webstore initiates a "Denial of Service" or other form of disabling attack against your Dedicated Server or major portions of our network, Delhi Webstore will do everything in its power to stop the attack, but cannot guarantee a resolution time. high security web-hosting services requires updation and installations of patches on regular basis to fight against day-to-day emerging viruses and threats.
  • cPanel Issues - if you choose to run cPanel and Web Host Manager on your Dedicated Server, the default install will be configured for automatic updates of cPanel related software. On occasion, one of these automatic updates could adversely affect all or part of the cPanel related software on you server. Delhi Webstore will do whatever is necessary to fix any cPanel related problems, but cannot guarantee a resolution time.

Network SLA Remedy
In the event that Delhi Webstore does not meet this SLA, Dedicated Hosting clients will become eligible to request compensation for downtime. If Delhi Webstore is or is not directly responsible for causing the downtime, the customer will receive a credit for 5 times ( 500% ) the actual amount of downtime. This means that if your server is unreachable for 1 hour (beyond the 0.0% allowed), you will receive 5 hours of credit.
