How to reinstall a Cloud server

Reinstalling a Cloud service can be useful to have a server with the same features as one created previously. Also, it is useful in case we have had any software problem that prevents us from recovering the server.

danger Reinstalling a Cloud involves:

• Irretrievably deleting all the data on the server.
• Execute the installation process with the same configuration with which it was created in the first place.
• The reinstalled Cloud will keep the same name, alias and IP address. If any, all backups will also be retained.
• Reinstalling the Cloud will have no effect on billing or administration services.

1. First of all, you will need to locate the Cloud you want to reinstall:

To continue with the reinstallation, you will have to formalize the changes and click on the "Reinstall now" button:
