Upgrading and Downgrading VPS Droplet

Darknode Default VPS Droplet Instances:

AWS is ta 3.micro which costs around 7.5$/month. Digital Ocean is a s-1vcpu-1gb which costs 5$/month. Google Cloud is a XXX which costs 10$/month.

If you would like to resize your Darknode to the default instance, please follow the below instructions:

If you are using Amazon Web Services (AWS), you will need to replace the NEW_INSTANCE_TYPE field with the AWS EC2 instance type you wish to use, t3.micro

darknode resize YOUR-DARKNODE-NAME t3.micro

You can find all available instance types at AWS. If you are using Digital Ocean, you will need to replace the NEW_INSTANCE_TYPE field with the DigitalOcean droplet slug you wish to use, s-1vcpu-1gb.

darknode resize YOUR-DARKNODE-NAME s-1vcpu-1gb

You can find all available droplet slugs at Digital Ocean Standard plans and DigitalOcean API Slugs​

This step may take up to five (5) minutes to complete. When finished your terminal will say: Apply Complete!

To resize (upgrade or downgrade) to a specific instance type, open a terminal and run:

darknode resize YOUR-DARKNODE-NAME NEW_INSTANCE_TYPE
