Installing an OS
This guide explains how to perform a new installation of an operating system on your server using the PowerPanel.
Important Notice Before Starting
Backup Your Data: Triggering an OS installation will wipe all data on all drives of the server. We highly recommend performing a complete backup before you proceed.
Time Estimate: Depending on the chosen template, it can take up to 1 hour for the system to process the request and an additional 1-2 hours to complete the installation.
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Log in to your PowerPanel and navigate to Hardware → Server Management. Click the Actions button next to your server and select Install Operating System.
Enter the Restore Code sent to your email. Then, select your desired OS template (e.g., Ubuntu, Debian, or Windows), choose the language, and set a new password for the root or Administrator user.
Review your settings and click Next. After the final confirmation, your server will automatically reboot and the installation process will begin.
The installation is irreversible once confirmed. Your server will be unavailable until the process is finished.
Hardware or Network Issues?
If you encounter any issues with the hardware or connectivity during the process, please contact us via the support section in your PowerPanel.
