Restart a cloud server

There are two ways to restart a cloud server:

Perform a program restart

The server will reboot without power off. A graceful shutdown will be performed — the operating system will shut down properly and restart.

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

  1. In the Control Panel, in the top menu, click Products and select Cloud Servers.

  2. In the server menu, select Soft reboot.

Perform a hardware restart

We recommend performing a hard reboot only if the server is not responding. In other cases, shut down and start the server.

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

  1. In the Control Panel, in the top menu, click Products and select Cloud Servers.

  2. In the server menu, select Hard reboot.
