==Resizing a Cloud Server==

The following command will show you your current servers, where <PROFILE> is the profile you're using (e.g., "dfw"):

$ supernova <PROFILE> list

Which should return something like the following:
<pre>
+--------------------------------------+--------+--------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ID | Name | Status | Networks |
+--------------------------------------+--------+--------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff | Foobar | ACTIVE | public=x.x.x.x, 2001:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff; private=x.x.x.x |
+--------------------------------------+--------+--------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
</pre>

Take note of the <code>ID</code> or the <code>Name</code> of the Cloud Server you wish to resize.

Next, you will need a list of flavors available to resize to:

$ supernova <PROFILE> flavor-list

Which should give you an output like the following:
<pre>
+----+-------------------------+-----------+------+-----------+------+-------+-------------+-----------+
| ID | Name | Memory_MB | Disk | Ephemeral | Swap | VCPUs | RXTX_Factor | Is_Public |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+------+-----------+------+-------+-------------+-----------+
| 2 | 512MB Standard Instance | 512 | 20 | 0 | | 1 | | N/A |
| 3 | 1GB Standard Instance | 1024 | 40 | 0 | | 1 | | N/A |
| 4 | 2GB Standard Instance | 2048 | 80 | 0 | | 2 | | N/A |
| 5 | 4GB Standard Instance | 4096 | 160 | 0 | | 2 | | N/A |
| 6 | 8GB Standard Instance | 8192 | 320 | 0 | | 4 | | N/A |
| 7 | 15GB Standard Instance | 15360 | 620 | 0 | | 6 | | N/A |
| 8 | 30GB Standard Instance | 30720 | 1200 | 0 | | 8 | | N/A |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+------+-----------+------+-------+-------------+-----------+
</pre>

Take note of either the <code>ID</code> or the <code>Name</code> of the flavor you wish to resize to (I suggest always using the <code>ID</code>).

The final step is to issue the resize command, where <code><SERVER></code> is the <code>Name</code> or <code>ID</code> of the Cloud Server in question, and <code><FLAVOR></code> is the <code>Name</code> or <code>ID</code> of the flavor you are resizing ''to'':

$ supernova resize <SERVER> <FLAVOR>

That's it. After a few minutes, your Cloud Server should be resized to whatever flavor your chose.
