    Changing Locations

    When moving a server it is important to know the server files and configuration are not taken with it. Therefore, you will need a copy of your server configuration files as well as an offline copy of your most recent Save game. Depending on the game, these are done differently. These are called “Local Backups” and they are explained in other articles we will link below:

    NOTE: you cannot transfer data from a console server. You will also need to know the best location to choose. The best location is typically the closest location nearest to you.

     

    Selecting Your server’s Location

    As you know, you can select your prefered location in all our data centers distributed in America, Europe and Asia when making a purchase, however if you or your community require the server to be moved you can follow these simple steps to do it:

    Note: It is very important to have your server stopped before changing the slots, otherwise your server will enter into a loop and the slots will not be modified

    Where do you start?

    • Once you know the best location for your service, and we have our information backed up, we need to navigate to Nitrado.net then go to “My Services”. Click on your server gray area to get more options.
    • There we click “Change Slots, Runtime, or Location”
    • Now scroll down a bit until you find the Hosting Location option, this will open a dropdown list where you will be able to select one of the available locations to host this game
    • Note: be mindful that some games might not be available on all locations due to different reasons, if the location you want is not available please contact support.
      • Once you have selected your desired location, click on the Change button
      • The website will ask you to confirm this change and proceed with the adjustment fee

    • Afterwards you will be charged the difference in days between what is remaining and the pre-selected rental period. This is not an extra charge. We recommend doing this kind of changes at the end  of your rental period.

    • Once you accept, the server will start in the other datacenter, and you will be able to upload your backup and start playing.
