    some suggestions:
    how about a small mod to ispconfig to run 'checkraid.sh' and display 'raidstate.txt' if it does not find either of the 2 supported raid systems currently? I have an HPE server and a Dell - and one uses megaraid and the other uses a hp tool. I've created a checkraid.sh (different of course) for each and I run it every 30 mins to check raid state and output result to raidstate.txt.
    I can obviously put this into ispconfig, but it might be a good GENERAL addition. user would create the above script, and ispconfig simply run it if it finds it. can I tie this in? if so how to do this in the approved manner? I think many others might be interested!

    also one other question. I by force of habit create the records for mail.xxx.com pointing to the website. but if the customer USES mail.xxx.com then the SSL is wrong as its for the hostname in postfix. maybe when you have ispconfig create the postfix/hostname ssl we could add mail.xxx.com for the sites with mail on this host? then everybody would be happy!

    finally - is there a way when creating a new website to automagically include a custom php and apache directives section? I keep forgetting to up the values for a wordpress site and I have go to back and manually include them!

    You can create directoive snippets and select these in website settings.

    You can write an ISPConfig cron plugin for that, which writes the result into the monitor_data table, and then extend the interface of your server to show it in the monitor module.

    I won't use per-customer domain SSL certs as they become unusable when you have hundreds of domains. Also, it's not favourablefor your company's branding if you do not let customers use your company domain for email services provided by your company. But of course, you can use any setup you like and change the source of your copy of ISPConfig in any way you want on your server.

    I recommend reading the code of the existing cron plugins, e.g., the quota plugin, to get an idea of how this works.
