Changing the commercial type of an Instance with the API or CLI

It is possible to change the commercial type of an Instance by using the Scaleway CLI tool or the Instances API. To do so, you need the Instance’s ID and a valid API key.

Before you start

To complete the actions presented below, you must have:

  • A Scaleway account logged into the console
  • Owner status or IAM permissions allowing you to perform actions in the intended Organization
  • An Instance, which must be stopped and not be in a placement group
Important

Network interface names may vary across commercial families (e.g. ENT1 vs. POP2). Ensure that any hardcoded interface names in your configurations or scripts are updated to avoid migration issues.

Important

Do not manually change the commercial type of Kubernetes Kapsule nodes using the API or CLI. Kubernetes Kapsule nodes must be managed through Kubernetes. Modifying node types outside of the recommended method can lead to instability or unexpected behavior. To change the commercial type of your nodes, create a new node pool with the desired Instance type and migrate your workloads to the new pool.
