Introduction
You’ve rented a Holdfast: Nations At War game server from us and want to know where to find each feature in ZAPX? This guide takes you through your server’s product management from start to finish—and shows you how much time the built-in automation and AI support can save you in your day-to-day administration.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
The overview shows the server status, IP:port with one-click copying, and live CPU, RAM, disk, and network usage. If the game supports live queries, you’ll also see the current player count, map, and ping right in the dashboard.
No. If your server crashes unexpectedly, ZapX detects it automatically in the background and updates your overview for you.
In the Configuration tab, AI scans your server files and turns the relevant settings into clear, thematically grouped form fields with explanations. Critical values are also marked with a caution notice. Alternatively, you can edit the configuration file in the raw text view.
You can create up to 5 MariaDB databases per server, each with direct phpMyAdmin access and an export option.
The ZapX AI Agent is included with every ZapX Pass. You can use chat to have it read and analyze your console log, browse and edit files, manage backups, display or reset your FTP credentials, and suggest updates. You’ll be asked to confirm any action that changes something on your server; it never acts on its own.

Holdfast: Nations At War
Control
Overview
The Overview is your cockpit: server status, IP:port with one-click copying, and live CPU, RAM, disk, and network usage. Each resource tile has a direct "Upgrade" button in case you’re running low. If your game supports live queries, you’ll also see the current player count, map, and ping right in the dashboard, without any external tools.
Tip
If your server crashes unexpectedly, ZAPX detects it automatically in the background and updates your overview for you—you don’t need to reload the page manually to see the actual status.
Configuration
Manually searching through configuration files is a thing of the past: under Configuration, AI automatically scans your server files, identifies the relevant settings, and translates them into clear, thematically grouped form fields—with an explanation for each parameter. Critical values are specially marked with a "Caution" notice so you don’t accidentally bring your server down. If you prefer the classic approach, you can open the raw text view of the config file directly—both options are available in the same view.
After you save, ZAPX offers to restart the server right away so your changes take effect immediately.
ZapX AI Agent
With the ZapX Pass, you have the ZapX AI Agent at your side—your personal on-demand server admin. You can use chat to have it read and analyze your console log, browse and edit files, manage backups, display or reset your FTP credentials, and suggest updates. You’ll be asked to confirm any action that changes something on your server—the AI Agent never acts on its own, so you’re always in full control.
Manage content
Files
The file manager under Files works like an FTP program right in your browser: upload files with drag and drop, edit them online, rename them, or delete them. You’ll find your SFTP credentials for external programs like FileZilla or WinSCP in the same tab, including one-click password rotation if you want to update them.
Databases
Under Databases, you can create up to 5 MariaDB databases per server, see credentials at a glance, open them directly in phpMyAdmin, or export the structure with one click. You can mark a database as the primary one. For security, you’ll need to enter the database name again to delete it.
Operations and maintenance
Console
The Console displays your server’s live output in a real terminal. The special feature: ZAPX automatically generates an AI-powered command palette tailored to your game, organized into categories such as Administration, Gameplay, or Chat—with autocomplete as you type. If your server starts struggling due to low memory, the console detects this automatically and displays a clear warning with a recommended action.
Backups
We automatically back up your server every day, so you always have a recent backup on hand without having to remember to create one yourself. With the ZapX Pass, you also get full control under Backups: create, restore, and download backups with one click. Each backup contains a complete version snapshot (game version, configuration), so you can return to that exact state whenever you need to. Restores include a live progress indicator, and the server is only stopped briefly. With ZapX Pass Pro, your backups can even run automatically on your own schedule.
Tip
With ZapX Pass Plus, you get 1, with Pro 3, and with Max 5 custom backup slots per server. For an overview of all benefits, visit ZapX Pass. There’s also an account-wide storage limit for all backups of your services combined, daily backups included: 250 GB for Plus, 500 GB for Pro, and 1,000 GB for Max. If needed, you can add extra backup storage on the ZapX Pass page.
Schedules
Under Schedules, you can automate recurring tasks: start, stop, or restart the server, create a backup (with ZapX Pass Pro and above), or run a custom command. Choose from handy presets such as "Every hour" or "Daily at 04:00," or set up your own schedule using a custom cron expression.
Statistics
Under Statistics, you can keep an eye on your server’s usage. Choose a time range from 1 hour to 30 days and view CPU, RAM, disk, network traffic, and your player count relative to your purchased slots.
Activity
Activity keeps a complete log of what has happened on your server—from starts and restarts to configuration changes, backups, and every console command. This lets you see exactly when changes were made.
DDoS Manager
The DDoS Manager shows incoming traffic live in a chart and lists past attacks with their time, duration, and peak bandwidth. ZAPX automatically learns which ports and services belong to your server and filters traffic accordingly. If you have a dedicated IP address, you can customize the protection as well.
Conclusion
You now know your way around every area of Holdfast: Nations At War server management in ZAPX—from AI-assisted configuration to automatic backups that have your back in the background.
