Introduction
Rebooting your server from WHM is a simple process. WHM provides both graceful and forceful reboot options to safely restart your dedicated server.
Prerequisites
- Root access to WHM
- Valid login credentials
Implementation
Step 1:
Log into your WHM account.

Step 2:
- Search for “Reboot” in the search bar
- Choose Graceful Server Reboot
- Click Proceed

Note:
- Use Graceful Server Reboot to close user-level processes properly and save data before restarting. This is strongly recommended by cPanel.
- Use Forceful Server Reboot only if the graceful reboot does not work, as it shuts down the server immediately without handling running processes.
Conclusion
Using WHM, you can safely reboot your dedicated server. Always prefer a graceful reboot to avoid data loss and ensure system stability.
