Restart a cloud server

There are two ways to restart a cloud server:

Perform a program restart

The server will reboot without powering off. A graceful shutdown will be performed — the operating system will shut down correctly and reboot.

If the server does not respond within the set time, a hardware restart will be performed automatically—in this case, unsaved data may be lost.

  1. In the Control panel, on the top menu, click Products and select Cloud Servers.

  2. In the server menu, select Program restart.

Perform a hardware restart

We recommend performing a hard reboot only if the server is not responding. In other cases, turn the server off and on.

During a hard reboot, the server shuts down and immediately turns on — in this case, unsaved data may be lost. The configuration is not recreated in the process.

  1. In the Control panel, on the top menu, click Products and select Cloud Servers.

  2. In the server menu, select Hardware restart.
