Please elaborate the process for remotely rebooting a dedicated server using Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI)? I am unsure how to do this and would appreciate some guidance.

It is pretty easy to reboot a dedicated server using the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI), and you can do it on your own. The steps listed below should be followed to do this:

• Login to IPMI

Open a browser and navigate to IPMI at http://xx.xx.xx.xx.
Your welcome email contains the IPMI IP and details of your account.

• Go to 'Remote Control' -> 'Power Control'

Click "Remote Control" from the top menu once logging within your IPMI server. Click "Power control" on the right side of the screen which appears as the following one.

• Select the 'Reset Server' Option and click 'Perform Action'.

• In a few minutes, your dedicated server will reboot.
