Yes. Use a dedicated account for hosting. Do not use the same account for both client rentals and host operations, because that setup is unsupported and can cause account and machine-management issues.

If a business or fleet needs multiple operators, use a dedicated host team account instead of sharing one personal login. See [Host Teams](/host/host-teams).

## How to accept the hosting agreement

Once your host account is created, open the [host setup page](https://cloud.vast.ai/host/setup/). There is a link in the first paragraph to the hosting agreement. Read through the agreement. Once you accept, your account is converted to a hosting account, and a Machines link appears in the navigation. Your account can now list machines that are running the daemon software.

- Do not stop, inspect, modify, or interfere with renter containers because they appear idle.
- Keep renter data isolated.

- Keep escalation contact details current in [Settings](https://cloud.vast.ai/settings/) so Vast can reach the right responder for urgent hosted-machine issues.

An idle-looking rental can still be active. Renters may run notebooks, services, build jobs, CPU-heavy work, or bursty workloads.
