How to schedule server tasks. Print

  • 80


IMPORTANT: Do not set two tasks to run at the same time, they will clash and neither will work properly. For example, if you set up automated backups to occur every 2 hours starting at 12:00AM, do not also set up server restarts to occur every 2 hours at 12:00AM

 

 

If you want to have an action scheduled for example restart your server every morning at 6am simply follow the steps below

  1. Log into your game panel.
  2. Select game services then click on the server you wish to create a scheduled task for.
  3. At the top of the page there is a scheduled tasks tab, click to go into the tab.
  4. Click new, select the task that you wish to schedule.
  5. Click new (under the task you have just selected).
  6. Give the task a name (such as 6am server reboot) select the options you wish (there are also a few options under advanced options).
  7. Click save.
