**Step 6: Wait for the VPS to Enter Rescue Mode**

**Access Your VPS in Rescue Mode**

- Use **[VNC](https://truehost.com/support/knowledge-base/how-to-access-vps-via-vnc-from-truehost-client-area/)** or **[SSH](https://truehost.com/support/knowledge-base/how-to-access-a-server-via-ssh-terminal/)** to connect to the VPS while it is in rescue mode.
- In rescue mode, you'll typically have a minimal OS running, allowing you to mount drives, fix issues, recover data, or perform any necessary repairs.
