What happens when it is overloaded? You can't access the console / control panel? If so that is what you have to fix: the overloading; presumably memory swapping?
Simple answer is to add more RAM and / or optimize your processes.

+1 to Frank's suggestions. I'll add 'do it, NOW!'
Long term there are remotely manageable AC power strips that you can log into and power off/power on the server from a remote telnet session.
There are keyboard/mouse over IP solutions available too that can send CTL-ALT-DEL to the server.

Thank you both for reply.
>>What happens when it is overloaded? You can't access the console / control panel?
When it is overloaded, most of the time, I can still access the console via SSH and issue a reboot command. The system even responds by saying the system is going to reboot. But, no reboot happens. I have to ask my host company to do a manual reboot every time.
>>Simple answer is to add more RAM and / or optimize your processes.
How can I optimize my processes? I have no idea although this is my third dedicated server.
It sounds weird to me that once a reboot command is given and the system receives the command, but just nothing happens. Any clue for this strange thing?

Probably is or will reboot just the system as u said is overloaded so it takes forever for the command to happen. The host is probably killing the power really not something I would want to happen very much. I would follow the above suggestions find out why this is happening and fix it asap.
