# Manage the VM of a service

Services created using our one-click installers are regular virtual machines that have been created using custom templates. Therefor, it's possible to manage these VMs just like any other VM.

***

When you create a service using one of our one-click installers, a virtual machine is created using a special template. You can manage this virtual machine just like any other.

Click **Virtual machine** under **Compute** in the left-hand menu. Then, click on the virtual machine that runs your service.
