Manage your servers
Use the Console to manage your server instances.
Instances page
On the Instances page, you can:
- Add new server instances
- See each server’s state and status
- View and copy each server’s name, ID, and IP address
- Open a detailed view of a server
Select a server in the Instances list to open it in a detailed view.
Instance details
On the instance Details tab, you can:
- See your server’s state and status
- See updates about potential outages or errors
- Stop, start, reboot, and terminate your server
- See a summary of your server configuration, network settings, and security settings
The Console provides up-to-date status updates in case a server has system or instance-level issues. In case of an incident, you can respond directly within the Console by rebooting or terminating servers.
Attach storage
Nebula enables you to attach additional block storage to your server instances. This is useful in scenarios where you need separate, additional storage to store data away from the operating system drive of your server.
You can create additional block storage in 2 ways:
- On the Disks Console page
- Directly via the
+button in the top left corner of the Console
When you create block storage instances, you must define a name and a size for the storage in GiB. You can then attach block storage to a server in 2 ways:
- On the Disk tab of a server's details page
- On the details page of a storage instance via the Disks page
Visit the Disks page to create new block storage volumes, or manage existing ones.
You can resize block storage instances, attach or detach them from servers, and delete them.
Add security groups
On the instance Security groups tab, you can attach or remove security groups from your instance.
Visit the Security groups Console page to create or edit security groups.
You can attach multiple security groups to a server instance.
