Troubleshooting - VPS Statuses

At any point of time, any VPS is characterized by a status (or state). There are four stable statuses and a number of transitional statuses that a VPS may have. If the VPS is in one of the stable states, it means that it is likely to continue in this state until its administrator performs a task that would change its status. If the VPS is in one of the transitional states, it means that it is currently passing from one stable state to another. During a transition stage, no operation can be performed on the VPS until the transition is finished.

The stable statuses are:

Status	Description	Possible Actions
down	The VPS is stopped and its private area is unmounted.	Starting/repairing/reinstalling
mounted	The VPS private area is initialized and ready to work, but the VPS is not running.	Starting
running	The VPS private area is mounted and the VPS is running.	Stopping/rebooting/repairing
repairing	The VPS is mounted in the repair mode.	Exiting the repair mode.

The transition statuses are:

Status	Description

mounting	The VPS is being mounted.
starting	The VPS is being started.
stopping	The VPS is being stopped.
