Several events can lead to your VPS restarting:
Restart following maintenance#
Your VPS may be restarted by our teams following maintenance (a hardware replacement operation on a host, for example). Wherever possible, maintenance operations that may cause your VPS to be interrupted are scheduled, and you are informed of them by email. However, some situations (a critical hardware failure) may require immediate intervention, without prior scheduling.
Restart following an incident#
The majority of our VPS plans (KVM, LXC, ...) are built on HA infrastructure and have automatic recovery in the event of an incident. This means your VPS is automatically restarted if it was located on a host that suddenly became inoperative.
In the vast majority of cases, your VPS is restarted less than 15 minutes after the fault is automatically detected.
