How often to reboot server?

How often do you reboot your BF2 servers? My clan set up a server and I am trying to figure out what our 'maintenance' should be like.

Re: How often to reboot server?

"As often as it needs it" is a good rule of thumb.

Don't worry, it likes to reboot itself every now and then.

Re: How often to reboot server?

If you are running a Windows Server operating system it is meant to run indefinitely unless an issue occurs to lock the system up. Rebooting a Windows OS system won't make much of a difference in performace I would say. If you seem to be having issues, reboot it. Otherwise, leave it be.

Now if you aren't running a Server OS, reboots can help.
