Reinstall the OS of your VPS Cloud / VPS Lite

This guide explains how to reset a VPS Cloud / VPS Lite.

 

Preamble

  • This procedure erases all the content of the volume dedicated to the operating system (/dev/vda).
  • In the case of a VPS Cloud, the volume dedicated to data storage (/dev/vdb) is not affected by the reset.
     

Warning: depending on the installed operating system, the system volume may be named /dev/sda, /dev/sda1 or /dev/vda… same for the data volume /dev/sdb, /dev/sdb2 or /dev/vdb … It is therefore necessary to replace these indications with those corresponding to your situation.
