Warning: This is not reversible!

You can change the size of an instance by changing its flavor. This rebuilds the instance and therefore results in a restart

Web Interface

  1. In Web Interface Compute->Instances, select the VM you wish to resize

  2. Shut down the Instance and create a snapshot to prevent data loss.

  3. Click the drop-down menu on the right-hand side (in Actions column) and select RESIZE INSTANCE

  4. Select the new flavor from the drop-down menu in the pop-up.

    Click on the RESIZE button
