Stop a Server

Sometimes you may want to interrupt a server to stop a long running task. Stop a server to force any running tasks to end.

NOTE: Any applications or daemons on this server will stop working as a consequence of the server being stopped.

WARNING: Your server's public IP address will be updated the next time the server is started, unless you have a static IP address set configured for the selected instance on your cloud provider. That means that if your server does not have a static IP address associated to it, the next time this server is started all domains that point to this server's old IP address will need to be updated to point to the server's new IP address.
