On any of the plans you create in your reseller plan, no matter if it is a Unix Plan or Windows Plan you can oversell your services. You could have a reseller plan that offers you 2GB and you create a windows plan that offers your client's 500mb. You signup 10 accounts and your total space you have promised is 5GB. This is not a problem as long as your clients do not actually use the space allotted to them. But be careful when doing this and make sure your hosting company will let you grow past your current plan or create a custom plan when you need it. Good Luck!

I thought H-Sphere was still based on allocation not usage(at least disk space). So that at the resellser level you could only setup enough accounts to use you alloted disk space. When I previously had a H-Sphere reseller account and tried to setup more space than allowed I either could not or H-Sphere automatically billed the overage charge to my credit card

I guess your hosting company could have set there reseller plan up like this, but if they did I would look for someone else. We don't do that with our resellers and I don't think most hosting companies that use the H-Sphere system do either.

I know for sure plans using H-sphere CP allow badwidth (Data Transfer) to be oversold. it would depend now on your host if disk space can be offered to be oversold too. Last edited by gallot; 06-03-2003 at 11:06 AM.

It has been ahwile since I had the H-Sphere account. This might have changes after Psoft updated version 2. It was the reason I dropped my H-Sphere account. Except for that it is a great control panel.

They have done many updates since version 2 they are currently on version 2.3. You may want to take another look at the changes they have made.

Greetings plin64: Yes. H-Sphere allows the direct provider and the reseller to oversell. See http://www.psoft.net/HSdocumentation...r_billing.html for some good information on the reselling side. Thank you.
