# Server Reboots

Reboot clears up old sessions and releases resources in use (CPU, RAM, file handles, etc.). It is recommended to configure scheduled reboots for your RD Session Hosts (applicable for frequent logoffs and logons). To do so, in the RAS Console, navigate to **Farm** > **RD Session Hosts** > **Scheduler** and click **Tasks** > **Add** > **Reboot server**. Reboot frequency depends on how heavily the RD Session Hosts are utilized.

**Hint:** Make sure that server rebooting does not cause any downtime. This can be carried out by offloading users onto other servers prior to reboot by enabling the drain mode.
