EC2 flavor change

0

Hello,

I have a SAP HANA appliance for QA on r5.8x.large (256 GB) in normal run which has four EBS volumes attached. I want to resize the instance from r5.8x.large (256 GB) to r5.16x.large(512GB).

Can I just shutdown my instance and change EC2 flavor, attach 4 EBS volumes to new flavor and it will work retaining my all network setting , hostname private IPs etc? or are there any additional consideration I need to keep in mind for EC2 flavour change

Thanks

Yes!

You shouldn't even have to reconnect anything, just shutdown and change the instance type and start the instance back up. You should find that everything has been retained.
