The Console (or Terminal) is the command center for your server. It allows you to monitor your server’s activity in real-time, execute commands directly to the server instance, and manage power states. Server Console Interface

​
Power Controls

Located at the top right of the terminal window, these buttons control the power state of your server.
ButtonActionDescription
StartBootStarts the server process. If the server is already running, this button is disabled.
RestartRebootSafely stops the server and immediately starts it again. Recommended for applying config changes.
StopKillStops the server process. Use the “Kill” option only if the server is unresponsive.
Forcing a Stop: Clicking the “Stop” button multiple times may force-kill the process. This can result in data corruption if plugins or worlds are not saved properly. Always try to let the server stop gracefully first.

​
Terminal Output

The large black area displays the live log output from your server console.
  • Live Monitoring: View startup logs, player chat, error messages, and plugin activity as they happen.
  • History: You can scroll up to view previous log entries since the panel was opened.
Auto Optimised Egg: As seen in the banner, Core Hosting offers an auto-optimised egg. If you see performance warnings in your console, consider switching to our optimised egg to apply recommended tweaks automatically.

​
Sending Commands

Below the terminal output is the command input field.
  1. Click into the text box that says “Type a command…”.
  2. Type your command (e.g., op <username>, gamemode creative, whitelist add).
  3. Press Enter to send it.
You do not need to type / before commands in the console (unlike in-game).

​
Server Statistics

The sidebar on the right provides real-time resource usage data for your specific instance.
  • Address: Your server’s connection IP and port (e.g., sg.corehost.store:20094).
  • Uptime: How long the server has been running since the last start.
  • CPU Load: Current CPU usage relative to your plan’s limit.
  • Memory: RAM usage. If this hits your limit (e.g., 8 GiB), the server may crash (OOM Kill).
  • Disk: Storage space used by your server files.
  • Network: Real-time incoming and outgoing traffic.

Performance Graphs

At the bottom of the page, you will find visual graphs for CPU Load, Memory, and Network. These are useful for identifying usage spikes or diagnosing lag during specific times.
