The End is a dimension found in Minecraft that homes the Ender Dragon, that can be entered by entering an End portal found in a Stronghold. As fun as The End can be to explore, it can cause significant performance issues to servers if loaded consistently.
For some server owners, you may be hosting a server that does not require The End, which means you may benefit from disabling it on your server. However, this is not possible on all Vanilla Minecraft servers as it requires Bukkit.yml.
Bukkit.yml
Bukkit.yml is a file that can only be found on a few server types such as Paper, Purpur, and Spigot. This is because they are all alternative server types of Bukkit.
# How to Disable The End on your Server
You can disable The End by configuring the Bukkit.yml file found within your server files
- Access your control panel and Shut Down your server.
- Navigate to your server files, and open bukkit.yml.
- Locate the allow-end option, and set this to
false. - Click Save, and start your server.
That's it! When your server boots up, The End dimension will be disabled.
