ArmA Reforger server hosting
ArmA Reforger server hosting with CFTools Architect runs the Enfusion dedicated server on a machine you control. The practical job is a scenario, a workshop mod list, and an update when Bohemia ships a build. Architect installs Reforger, updates it, manages mods, stores backups, restarts, and can wipe server state. People also look this up as Arma Reforger dedicated server hosting. The Reforger RCon admin tool is still planned in Cloud and is not how you deploy the server.
Runs on a Windows or Linux machine you control.
Hosting highlights
Enfusion server on your hardware
Deploy ArmA Reforger to a Windows or Linux host you administer. The process stays there. Architect is the manager, not a company renting Everon slots.
Workshop mods for the scenario
Reforger mod management is supported. Keep the mod set that the scenario expects attached to the server so an update does not boot a vanilla island by accident.
Updates when a new build ships
Reforger builds move. Architect can update the dedicated server and the mods, then start it again without a manual SteamCMD session.
Scenario and server config
Change Reforger server configuration from Manager. Scenario choice and the settings your unit argues about stay on the server record.
Backups before a mod test
Back up before you add a large mod or switch scenario. A bad workshop update is easier to leave behind when the previous files are still on disk.
Restarts and wipes
Schedule restarts around operation night. Automatic wipes are available when the persistent state on the Reforger server should be cleared.
How Reforger self-hosting works
Install the agent on the machine, deploy Reforger, select mods, and confirm the game port is open. Metrics and webhooks tell you whether the host and the process are healthy. RBAC can let a mission maker restart the server without full control of every other game on the box.
Reforger caveats
Cloud RCon for Reforger is coming soon. Do not expect to connect bans and live logs in Cloud today. Use the Reforger RCon page for that roadmap. GameLabs is DayZ-only. Architect does not replace a machine that is too small for the mod set.
Mods are the reason to use Architect
A Reforger community server is usually a mod list plus a scenario. Mod management, updates, and backups are the hosting features that match that. Wipe automation is there when a test scenario should not carry old persistence into the public server.
