With the Splitter tab you can carve part of your plan’s RAM, disk and CPU into a second (or third) server. Each split is a real server with its own console, files, backups and port. For example, an 8 GB plan can run a 6 GB survival server plus a 2 GB creative or test server.
Splits share your plan, they don’t add to it. RAM you give to a split is taken from your main server.
Create a split
- Make a backup of your main server (Backups → Create backup).
- Open your main server and click Splitter in the server menu (on a phone, swipe the menu sideways). You see how much CPU, memory and disk is assigned so far.
- Under Splits, click the + tile.
- In Create new Split, give it a Name and Description so you can tell the servers apart.
- Set Memory, Disk and CPU for the new server. The maximum is shown next to each field; turn on Use Gibibytes to type GB instead of MB.
- Pick the Egg: what the new server runs, for example Paper.
- Click Split Server. The window tells you whether your main server will be stopped or restarted while the resources move over.
- The new server appears in your server list on the panel home page. Open it and Start it like any other server.
Change or remove a split
- Open Splitter on your main server and click the split. Change its memory, disk or CPU and click Update Server.
- Delete Server removes the split and gives its resources back to the main server. Everything on the split is deleted, so download or back up what you want to keep first.
- Sync Subusers copies the people you gave access to on the main server (Users tab) to the split.
Can’t create a split?
No + tile under Splits? Then your plan has no free split slot, or not enough resources left. Open a ticket and tell us what you want to run. We’ll check what your plan allows. Need more RAM for both servers? Upgrade your plan.
