Shutdown or Restart Your Windows Home Server from the Console
There might be times when you need to shutdown or restart your home server for a variety of reasons. If you’re new to WHS you may not know it can be done from the Console without having to hook up a monitor and keyboard to the server itself.
Open up Windows Home Server Console from a machine on your network and click on Settings. Then click the Shut Down button.
The Shut Down screen appears and the rest of the console fades in the background. Now you can shutdown or Restart the server.
A message pops up indicating your connection has been lost, and you’ll be able to reconnect after it starts back up.
Windows Home Server is designed so you can accomplish pretty much everything from the Home Server Console, including a Shutdown or Restart.
