What it does

This is what the server runs at startup, usually from the launch line with +map de_dust2. On a running server changelevel is usually the better choice because players stay connected.

The game's own description: map <mapname> :Load a new map.

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to game/csgo/cfg/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS2 server first.
