Force stopping and terminating

Available in Classic

This page provides instructions on how to forcibly stop or terminate servers on the console when server problems occur while creating or operating servers.
When an error occurs on the server, the issue can be recognized through Server Status Check, and the [Force stop] or [Force terminate] button is enabled to solve it.
