# Adding a Server https://docs.wisecp.com/de/adding-a-server Connect a server by picking its module and how to reach it, then test, size and control it from the same record. ## Opening the Screen From **Server Settings** ([Server Management](https://docs.wisecp.com/en/server-management)), click **Add New Server** to connect a new one: `{admin}/products/servers/add`. Click a server's name, or **Edit** in its row menu, to open the same form already filled in: `{admin}/products/servers/edit?id={sunucu}`. Adding is one sequence, module then connection, with identity and capacity beside it. Editing drops the sequence and adds three tabs: Preferences, Linked Services and Import. ## What Is on the Screen | Area | Where | What it settles | | --- | --- | --- | | Automation Module | Add: first step. Edit: below identity, collapsed once chosen. | Which module creates, suspends and terminates services here. | | Connection Details | Add: second step, locked until a module is picked. Edit: below the module. | Address, credentials and any fields the module asks for. | | Identity and Capacity | Add: right column. Edit: top of the left column. | Name, monthly cost, account limit and nameservers. | | Summary rail | Edit only, right column. | Module status, endpoint with a test button, capacity, this month's figures. | ### Automation Module This module creates, suspends and terminates the services on this server. Category tabs group modules by kind, and **Common** lists the most used ones first. Picking a module reveals **Connection Details** below it. A module no longer installed shows a **Module Removed** badge instead, and its services can no longer be automated. On an existing server, **Change** opens a warning window first. Confirm the migration checklist there before the picker opens: changing the module moves every service on this server to the new one. ### Connection Details The address the panel uses to reach this server, and the account it signs in with. **Address** combines a scheme switch, the hostname or IP, and a port. The port locks to the module's default unless **Use Custom Port** is checked. HTTPS on a bare IP shows a warning. **Username** and **Password** follow; **Password** shows as placeholder dots on an existing server. **Access Hash** appears when the module uses one; the module may add fields below. **Test Connection**, in add mode, checks the credentials and shows a state with a time stamp. A successful test can fill in fields above for you. ### Identity and Capacity Name this server, say how many accounts it can carry and what it costs you. **Hostname** is the name shown across the panel and on service records. **Monthly Cost** counts as this server's expense for Profit/Loss. **Maximum Accounts** sets the capacity the Usage bar measures; its occupancy alert needs that limit set. **Nameservers** takes up to four, one per line. ### Summary Rail Only on an existing server. Module identity and its status badge sit at the top. Next is the endpoint, its state and a **Test again** button, then capacity and this month's services, revenue and cost. **Open Panel** signs you into the server's own panel when allowed. **View linked services** jumps to that tab. ### Preferences, Linked Services and Import **Preferences** appears only for modules with client tools or cards; each item is a switch. Turning a card off folds its own items too. **Linked Services** lists every service running on this server. **Import** appears only for modules that can list their own accounts. **Import from Server** pulls that list so each account can be matched to a client and product. ## Fields - **Automation Module**: Required. Chosen from the category tabs; nothing below appears until it is set. - **Address**: Required. Scheme, hostname or IP, and port together. - **Username**: Required. The account the panel signs in with. - **Password**: Required. Shown as dots on an existing server; leave it as it is to keep the stored one. - **Access Hash**: Required or optional depending on the module; hidden for modules that do not use one. - **Hostname**: Required. Shown across the panel and on service records. - **Monthly Cost**: Optional, zero by default. Counted as this server's expense. - **Maximum Accounts**: Optional; saved as 200 when left empty. Sets the capacity the Usage bar measures. - **Enable Occupancy Alert**: Optional. Disabled until Maximum Accounts carries a number above zero. - **Nameservers**: Optional, one per line, up to four. ## Tasks ### Adding a Server 1. Pick a module under **Automation Module**. 2. Fill in **Connection Details**: address, username, password and any module fields. 3. Click **Test Connection** first; a success can fill in several fields for you. 4. Fill in **Identity and Capacity**, at least a **Hostname**, then click **Add New Server**. ### Changing the Module on an Existing Server 1. Open the server and click **Change** beside its module. 2. Confirm the checklist: services migrated, configuration checked, module tested. 3. Pick the new module, then fill in its Connection Details. 4. Click **Save Changes**; every service here now runs on the new module. ### Choosing What Clients See 1. Open the **Preferences** tab; it appears only when the module offers one. 2. Turn off a widget, tool or card to hide it from the client. 3. Use **Toggle All** to flip everything, then click **Save Changes**. ### Importing Existing Accounts 1. Open the **Import** tab and click **Import from Server**. 2. Pick a client, product and cycle for each account, with a start and end date (end cannot be before start). 3. Click **Import**; each row becomes a service linked to this server. ## Things to Watch > **Changing the module moves every service** > > Every service on this server moves to the new module you pick. Confirm the checklist first: migrated, compatible, tested. > **Testing is optional** > > **Add New Server** does not need a successful test to turn on. Testing first can save retyping several fields. > **Dots in Password keep the stored value** > > Leave **Password** untouched on an existing server to keep it. Type a new one only to replace it. ## Required Privileges Opening this screen, saving a server, testing the connection, and the Preferences and Import tabs all need **Server Settings** (`MODULES_SERVERS_SETTINGS`). **Open Panel** in the summary rail also needs **Root Login Button** (`MODULES_ROOT_LOGIN_BUTTON`), and appears only for modules that support it. ## Related Articles - [Server Management](https://docs.wisecp.com/en/server-management) - [Server Groups](https://docs.wisecp.com/en/managing-server-groups) - [Creating a Server Group](https://docs.wisecp.com/en/creating-a-server-group)
