To switch to a larger instance, we need to manually create a snapshot of the current instance (this should have been done in the previous section). If you’re not already in the snapshot page, navigate to ‘Home’ > ‘Workshop-WordPress’ > Snapshots.
Click on the three dots on the right side of the snapshot row.
In this case, to give a new name to our instance in the ‘Identify your instance’ section, enter ‘Workshop-WordPress-Medium’ to differentiate between the original size and the new size.
Select Create instance.
A new virtual machine will be deployed. Now, we need to attach the static IP address from the original WordPress website to the new one.
