# Dedicated GPU Server

## Dedicated GPU Server

**Order:** <https://prevps.com/dedicated-gpu-server/>

### Before you start

Dedicated servers usually take longer to provision than VPS. Check your email for delivery details.

### Access methods

Your access depends on the OS you order:

* Linux: SSH
* Windows: RDP

If your service includes out-of-band access (IPMI/KVM), use the credentials provided.

### Power Controls (Client Area)

In the Client Area, you may see **Power Controls** for your dedicated server.

Use it when you need to restart the machine, or when remote access is down.

Available actions:

* **Reboot**: graceful restart.
* **Shutdown**: power off the server.
* **Start**: power on the server (**coming soon**).
* **Rescue Mode**: boot a recovery system (**coming soon**).

Limits:

* You can perform power actions **once every 15 minutes**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Prefer shutting down from the OS when possible. Forced power actions can cause data loss during disk writes.
{% endhint %}

### GPU verification (Linux)

Once you can log in, verify drivers and GPU visibility. A common check is `nvidia-smi` for NVIDIA.

### Security basics

* Update the OS.
* Restrict remote access by IP if possible.
* Use strong passwords and rotate them.
