Power controls

You can control your server’s power state at any time from its detail page in the dashboard.

The Power Control card at the top of the server page shows the current status and four buttons:

ActionWhat it does
Power OnStarts a server that is currently offline.
Power OffCuts power to the server immediately.
ResetImmediately cuts and restores power — equivalent to pressing the physical reset button.
Power CyclePowers the server off and then on again in sequence.

Power Off and Reset both ask you to confirm before they act, because they cut power immediately without giving the operating system a chance to shut down gracefully.

Confirmation dialog for powering off, warning that unsaved data may be lost

Click Confirm to proceed, or Cancel to go back without making any changes.

A live badge next to the server name shows whether the server is currently online or offline. The badge updates automatically — you do not need to refresh the page after triggering a power action.
