How do I reboot my VPS?

    There are 3 ways you can reboot your VPS without contacting our support staff.

    • You can reboot your VPS from within the OS itself (sudo reboot or sudo shutdown -r now)

    • You can reboot your VPS from your Portal account

      • Click on your VPS service from the "My Services" screen or the Dashboard.

      • Under "Virtual Machine Detail", find the "Action" buttons

        • Click Shutdown and wait approximately 60 seconds
        • Click Boot and wait approximately 60 seconds for your VPS to boot

      • If your VPS does not come back up, repeat the procedure but this time select Power Off

      • If your VPS still does not come back up, you may manage your VPS using out-of-band management and proceed to fix what is preventing it from coming back up.

        Please note it is your responsibility to repair any broken configuration within your VPS.

    • You can reboot your VPS from the SSH-based management console

      • Use the same procedure as described above for the Portal, but instead use the console menu
