Once you have created your virtual servers, you are able to control them through the Cloud Manager's Virtual Servers screen. The Virtual Servers screen provides you an overview of your current server list as well as the ability to see their current capacity.
Manage Server Power Options
Once a server builds, you can control its power setting. Whenever a server is powering on, powered off, or restarting, the server is not available.
To power on, off, or restart your server:
- From the Cloud Manager, click Services > Servers.
- Click the name of the desired server.
- Under Details you will have several options:
- Startup Virtual Server / Reboot Virtual Server - Start your virtual server normally, or reboot your virtual server normally.
- Shut Down Virtual Server* Shut down (Gracefully shutdown) - Toggle the Status switch to Perform a graceful shutdown of your virtual server.
Once you select a power option, your server will queue a task to power on, off, or restart, and then do so once the server is available.
Change Server Plans
If you need more memory, storage space, or processing power, you can upgrade your server plan at any time. If you do not need the full capacity of your current server plan, you can downgrade your server to a lower level.
To change your server plan level:
- From the Cloud Manager, click Services > Servers.
- Click the name of the desired server.
- Under Details click the Preferences gear on the right hand side.
- Click Update to select a new plan.
- Click Update in the modal to change your server plan.
Access the Server Console
The Server Properties screen allows you to use a web-based console to access your virtual server from a command prompt.
To access your Virtual Server:
- From the Cloud Manager, click Services > Servers.
- Click the name of the desired server.
- Under Details click the Preferences gear on the right hand side.
- Click Open Console.
