Scaling your server up or down is now a single slider in the panel

Scaling your server up or down is now a few clicks in the panel. Open the Size tab of your server and move the slider to the size you want. The new price shows right away, and the window that opens when you click the button shows the difference for you to confirm. Nothing changes until you do.

Scaling up

• It applies after payment. Your server restarts once on its own and comes back at the new size. The disk grows at the same time.
• Your server is briefly unreachable during the restart, so pick a convenient time.
• You are only invoiced the difference for the remaining days. You pay it by card or from your account balance.
• Your server isn't deleted. Your IP address and data stay the same.

Scaling down

• It is scheduled for the end of the term you have paid for. Your current size keeps running until then.
• If you change your mind, just click Cancel Change.
• Memory and CPU go down, and you pay less from the next term. The disk isn't shrunk. Your disk and its data stay as they are.

Which size should I start with?

You don't need the biggest one. Start small and scale up if it isn't enough. RAM goes from 1 GB to 256 GB.

Most ready-made apps need nothing from you when the size changes. For a step-by-step walkthrough, see the help article.
