How to reboot VPS on schedule automatically?

[Tommyhara]

Hello

Are there any ways to reboot VPS automatically in schedule?
for example, my vps will auto reboot each 5 days one time, is it possible?

You obviously know nothing about *nix. There is no reason to reboot. Why do you think you need to reboot.

Yes, it is; read man shutdown and man crontab or this to learn how to do it:

Although I wouldn't have made the point the way scsi did, I'm still curious as to why Tommyhara feels he needs to reboot the server. A properly configured server can stay up long time. I've had server uptimes of well over a year.

I even run my linux desktop over a month between reboots, and with my new hardware I'm aiming to be able to keep desktops up much longer as well. (16 GB memory).
