If some services are not responding properly it is worth checking whether the problem might be cause by a lack of resources.
Under these circumstances, it is recommended to download a copy of the latest backup as documented in Project:Check_Backups.
You can check the available space in the server with:
df -h
And the available memory with:
free -h
If more resources are needed you will have to log in into OpenStack and allocate the new required resources to the VM.
- Increasing the available RAM can only be achieved by resizing the instance.
- Go to OpenStack
- Select the Instances tab
- For the selected instance, under the Actions column, select Resize Instance.
- Select the new flavor corresponding to the required resources.
- If only more storage is required, this can be achieved by resizing the volume attached to the VM.
- Under Volumes, click the Volumes tab.
- Select the corresponding volume.
- Under Actions, select Extend Volume and introduce the new required size (make sure there is enough Quota, which can be seen in the initial page in OpenStack).
- After resizing the volume it is necessary to apply a Soft Reboot to the instance (Select the instance again and click 'Soft Reboot Instance' under Actions).
