I had a t1.micro instance (old_server) on Linux on EC2 and now I need to upgrade my server to m1.
small Linux (new_server). So, here is what I did:
Shutdown old_server and create an AMI.
Launch the new AMI with m1.
small configuration. (I kept the key and security group same as old_server)
I tried to login by: ssh -i my_key.pem
[email protected]
But, it gives a connection timeout error. My login to old_server works fine.
So, my question is:
What is the correct way to scale up (vertically) an EC2 instance?
Where am I going wrong in the above mentioned step?
When I create an AMI in step 1, is the EBS (data) also copied.
