Create virtual server

Navigate to: Main Menu > Virtual servers > Click (+) Create virtual server (or select the icon on an available package card).

This form initializes your new Virtual Private Server (VPS). You must configure the basic environment settings before the machine can be provisioned.

Configuration Options

  • Subscription: Select the specific hosting plan you purchased to use for this server. If you have multiple unused packages, ensure you select the correct one.
  • Server location: Choose the geographic region for your server.
    Recommendation: Leave this on Automatic selection to let our system place your server on the node with the best available performance and capacity.
  • Operating system: Select the OS version you require (e.g., Windows Server, Ubuntu, CentOS).
    Important: Changing the operating system later usually requires a full re-installation and data loss, so choose carefully.
  • Server name: Enter a unique label for your server. This name is used to identify the machine in your control panel and will be set as the computer's internal hostname.
  • Description: (Optional) Add personal notes to help you identify the purpose of this server.

Finalizing Setup

Click the CREATE VIRTUAL SERVER button to begin the deployment.

Note: The provisioning process involves allocating disk space and installing the operating system. This typically takes several minutes. Please do not close the browser tab until the process confirms completion.
