 Server faults are usually caused by hardware failure, such as the failure of a hard disk or solid-state drive. Azure continuously monitors these occurrences, identifies the underlying bugs, and rolls out updates after the mitigation has been implemented and tested.
 
-Because some host server faults can be specific to that server, a repeated VM reboot situation might be improved by manually redeploying the VM to another host server. This operation can be triggered by using the **redeploy** option on the details page of the VM, or by stopping and restarting the VM in the Azure portal.

 ### Auto-recovery
 
-The Azure platform is designed to handle host node issues with minimal impact on VM performance. When a host node encounters a problem, Azure first attempts the least disruptive recovery method, which is to reboot the host. If rebooting the host isn't possible or if the original issue is hardware-related, the platform service heals all VMs on the affected host to a healthy node. While rebooting a host generally has a lower impact, service healing VMs can be more complex and time-consuming, depending on the number of VMs, their deployment constraints, and local resource availability. Service healing is typically used as a last resort for hardware failures because it ensures that VMs continue to operate without significant downtime.

If rebooting the host isn't possible or the issue is hardware-related, Azure initiates an automatic recovery action to take the faulty host out of rotation for further investigation. As part of this automatic recovery, a process known as service healing will automatically relocate all VMs on the faulty host to another healthy one. This process is usually completed within 15 minutes, although the recovery time can vary depending on factors such as the host's memory size and recovery methods used.
