Resizing an instance using Cloud management portal¶
To resize an instance using the Cloud management portal, follow these steps:
Important
Resizing an instance will cause the instance to shut off during the process. We recommend doing a backup of your data before proceeding.
Press “Compute” and then “Instances” in the sidebar menu.
Press the instance that you want to resize.
In the top right corner, press “resize” (its a small dotted square).
Select the flavor you want.
Press “Resize” and press “yes”.
You will see the status in the top left corner.
When it says “verify resize” (and a small triangle), login to the instance and verify that it worked as intended (meaning the instance is working as before but with the new flavor).
If you are happy with the result, press the small “check mark” in the top right corner. This will finalise the process and make it permanent.
If you are unhappy (for some reason the process failed), you are able to instead press the small “x”. This will revert the process.
Accept the change by pressing “yes”.
The process is now complete.
