# Restart PHP

> Gracefully restart lsphp processes for your Grid Hosting account from the Domains page.

**Restart PHP** gracefully restarts the `lsphp` (LiteSpeed PHP) processes for your account. Use it when a site is stuck or a PHP process has crashed.

The control is on **Domains**, next to **Add Domain**. It applies to every site on the account, not one domain.

You can run it at most **once every 15 seconds**. The restart takes about **5 seconds**.
