Will my server reboot if I upgrade?
Depending on the upgrade that is performed your server with us may need to be rebuilt, rebooted or nothing may need to happen at all.
| RAM/CPU/Disk upgrades | Operating System Change | IP Address addition | |
| Linux VPS | Reboot (1-2* Minutes Downtime) | Rebuild (15 - 20 Minutes downtime + Data Loss) | Reboot (1-2* Minutes Downtime) |
| Windows VPS | Reboot (3-5* Minutes Downtime) | Rebuild (20 - 30 Minutes downtime + Data Loss) | Reboot (3-5* Minutes Downtime) |
| Web/Reseller hosting | No Downtime | N/A | No Downtime |
In most cases adding an IP address to a Linux or Windows system shouldn't cause any disruption, however if our Cloud Management system isn't able to log in to your server it will force a reboot to allocate the additional IP, so it's best to plan for this rather than be caught off guard.
