AutoReboot
AutoReboot schedules automatic server restarts on Fabric for 1.20.1, stopping the server cleanly and warning players before each restart.
What it does
AutoReboot is a server-side Fabric utility for 1.20.1 that automates restarts. Its author describes it as a high-performance tool meant to keep a server stable over long uptimes. Only the server needs the mod: players join without installing anything, and the client side is left untouched.
The mod turns a plain server stop into a managed process. A restart is scheduled with configurable timing, the server saves data before it shuts down, and the restart runs as a controlled sequence rather than an abrupt exit. Launching the server once generates the default configuration files, which can then be adjusted for the schedule and notification settings.
Installation needs Fabric Loader 0.18.4 or newer and Fabric API. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for 1.20.1 only, with version 1.0.1 as the latest Fabric file, dated 2026-04-22.
Key features
Scheduled restarts
Server restarts run on a configurable schedule, so maintenance happens at fixed times without manual stops.
Data-protected shutdown
The server saves world and player data before stopping, so a restart does not discard recent progress.
Player notifications
Players receive advance warnings before a restart, giving them time to finish what they are doing.
Generated configuration
The first server launch creates default configuration files that control timing and messages.

How it compares
[RSA] Restart Announcer is also server-side only and runs on Fabric for 1.20.1, but its license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source. AutoRestart is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, like AutoReboot, but it targets 1.21.6 – 1.21.8 instead of 1.20.1.
