How to Set Up Automatic Restarts for Your Vein Server

Updated June 10, 2026 · By Host Havoc Technical Support Team

Scheduling automatic restarts keeps your Vein server running smoothly by clearing memory and applying any pending updates on a regular interval. You can configure this through the Scheduled Tasks feature in the game panel.

After setting up restarts, you may also want to review your server settings to ensure everything is configured correctly after each restart.

Set up a scheduled restart

  1. Log in to your Game Control Panel and navigate to your server.
  2. Click the Scheduled Tasks icon on the left-hand side.
  3. Click New at the top of the section and choose Scheduled Start/Stop/Restart, then click New directly below that section.
  4. Give the task a descriptive name and make sure the Enabled box is checked.
  5. For the type, choose Daily to restart at the same time each day.
  6. Set the start date and time. This is the time the task will run every day.
  7. Click Save.

Before you start: The scheduled time uses the game panel's time zone. To verify your panel's time zone, check your panel account settings.

Set up a repeating restart

If you want the server to restart every few hours throughout the day, enable the Repeat Task option in the Advanced Options section and set the interval. For example, to restart every 6 hours, set the repeat interval to 6 hours within a 24-hour period.

Additional options such as action type and waiting until the server is empty are available under Advanced Options.
