Gyro Cloud Istanbul: resizing the plan, server name, labels and deleting the server

1. Before resizing

• Plans: There are 8 plans from standart-1-2 to standart-8-32 (price table). When the plan changes the hourly price follows the new plan's monthly price; the monthly cap also applies per the new plan.
• Take a snapshot before resizing (Snapshots); the server may need to shut down briefly during the resize.
• Make sure your balance can cover the new plan's charge.

2. Resizing the plan

1. Open your server from My Services. If the service page has a plan upgrade option (an Upgrade tab or a Renew/Upgrade menu) use it; the system shows the new plan and hourly price.
2. If the option is not shown, open a request on the Support page: write your service number and the plan you want (for example standart-4-8). Our team changes the plan and replies.
3. When it finishes your server runs with the new resources. If the disk also grew, use Management > Storage > Extend Disk inside the panel.

3. Server name and labels

• Panel name / label: With the label icon next to the service name you can give your server a nickname (up to 60 characters) and coloured labels (Service nicknames and labels). It helps you search and filter when you have many servers.
• The server's own name: For the host name inside the system run this on the server:

hostnamectl set-hostname web-1.example.com

4. Deleting the server

The only way to stop the charge is to delete the service. Spending > My prepaid services > Delete; confirm by typing the service number. Deletion cannot be undone; snapshots are deleted too. Details: Stopping and deleting a prepaid service.

gyro server delete 12345 --dry-run
gyro server delete 12345 --yes
