# Console

> Live server console with power controls and real-time resource usage.

The **Console** is the landing page for any server in Lumi-Panel. It's where you start, stop, and watch your server in real time.

## Power controls

Four actions live above the console window:

* **Start** - boot the server using its current startup configuration.
* **Restart** - gracefully stop and immediately start again.
* **Stop** - send a graceful shutdown signal.
* **Kill** - force-terminate the process. Use only when the server is unresponsive; this can corrupt save data.

<Warning>
  **Kill** skips the game's normal shutdown routine. For FiveM, Minecraft, and database-heavy servers, always try **Stop** first.
</Warning>

## Live output

The console window streams `stdout` and `stderr` from your server process in real time. You can type commands directly into the input bar at the bottom - they're sent straight to the running process.

## Resource usage

The right-hand panel shows live **CPU**, **Memory**, **Disk**, **Network**, and **Uptime** counters, pulled directly from the Wings daemon on the node. These are your dedicated allocations - not shared, not burstable lies.

<Tip>
  If CPU or memory is consistently pegged, [open a ticket](https://billing.lumixsolutions.org/submitticket.php). We'll help you size up rather than let your server thrash.
