qm-reboot: Reboot a virtual machine.
$ qm reboot ${vm_id}
try on your machine

The command "qm reboot ${vm_id}" is used to reboot a virtual machine (VM) identified by ${vm_id}.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "qm" is a CLI (Command Line Interface) tool used in Proxmox Virtual Environment (PVE) to manage virtual machines.
  • "reboot" is the specific command used within "qm" to initiate a reboot on a VM.
  • ${vm_id} is a placeholder for the unique ID or name of the VM that you want to reboot. You should replace it with the actual ID or name of the VM.

Overall, this command tells the qm tool to initiate a reboot on the specified virtual machine, allowing you to restart the VM for various reasons such as applying updates, troubleshooting issues, or refreshing the system.
