What Is RedstoneReboot?

RedstoneReboot is a server restart plugin and mod that runs across multiple Minecraft platforms. It handles scheduled restarts, health-based automatic restarts, player notifications, and backend handoff to external process managers.

It is available as a Bukkit plugin (Bukkit, Spigot, Paper, Purpur, Folia) and as a server-side mod (Fabric, Forge, NeoForge).

Backend Options

The backend setting controls how the server is actually restarted. Configure this in restart-backends.properties.

Backend	Description
SHUTDOWN_ONLY	Default. Shuts down the server; relies on an external process manager to restart it

SYSTEMD	Sends a restart command via systemd (Linux only)
DOCKER	Relies on a Docker restart policy
PTERODACTYL	Calls the Pterodactyl panel API to send a restart signal

Backends can be switched and reloaded with /reboot reload — no full restart needed.
