Linode has at least one major change of activity information every year. For example, we can see the changes in the series of free memory upgrades, SSD hard disks, and price adjustments in previous years/times, making the legendary Gao Fushai VPS popular. This year is the 13th anniversary of the Linode VPS host company. Somehow, there should be some changes and upgrades. Lao Zuo would have released the second Japanese computer room before, but it has not yet been released. According to the official statement, the second Japanese computer room will be released at the end of the year. I hope not to pigeon.
This time, the official adjusted the configuration of all Linode VPS host schemes again. The hard disk, traffic, kernel and bandwidth remain unchanged, and all memory can be upgraded twice for free. For example, the original minimum configuration of 1GB memory can now be upgraded to 2GB for free. The original 2GB memory scheme can now be upgraded to 4GB for free. There is also a machine with the Linode 2GB scheme on the old left hand. We are upgrading it together to see how to operate it.
First, upgrade preparation
This memory upgrade strategy is only for KVM architecture configuration scheme. If we have not upgraded the original XEN architecture scheme to KVM, we cannot upgrade it( Annex Xen Upgrading KVM Architecture Method )。 At the same time, in order to ensure the security of data, Lao Zuo (laozuo. org) personally suggested that we had better back up the website data first. In case of possible problems, we still have room to save.
Second, log in to the Linode button to be upgraded
After logging in to the Linode VPS host to be upgraded, we can see the above prompt to upgrade. Click here for more information.
Here we can see the direct upgrade button. According to our current memory configuration, Lao Zuo's machine can be upgraded to 4GB.
Third, choose automatic or immediate upgrade
According to the prompt of the system, we can arrange to wait for the automatic upgrade, or we can directly upgrade immediately. I definitely don't want to wait for him here, just click Upgrade Now.
Then we can see the progress of the upgrade in the panel. Here we just have to wait.
Fourth Linode Upgrade Memory completion check
After the upgrade, do not restart the machine automatically. Then log in to SSH to see if it is upgraded to 4GB memory. At the same time, we should check whether our WEB environment and website/project environment are normal.
