Amazon EC2 How to Grow Storage

Amazon EBS - How to Grow the Storage

Seen loads of good posts about EBS describing how to use them to provide cross instance persistent storage. Really it's awesome. All the EC2 images store to their own EBS and if the EC2 crashes a new one can be resumed with minimal downtime. Amazon has nice pictures about this use case.

Quite simple to increase the size of an EBS volume, just: create, attach, mount, write, umount, snapshot, create, attach, check, resize, check, mount, delete. We're going to walk through the process using Amazon EC2 command line tools.

Create the initial volume and attach to an EC2 instance.

Reinstall Apache2 Ubuntu

To replace configuration files that have been deleted, without purging the package, you can do

sudo apt-get -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall install apache2.2-common

To fully remove the apache2 config files, you should

sudo apt-get purge apache2.2-common

Revert PHP 5.3 to 5.2 (better compatibility with Drupal 6)

Let us list all existing PHP packages to know what version we are running:

# dpkg -l | grep php

So, now we are going to duplicate the existing sources.list and replace the lucid with karmic repos and saving it in sources.list.d
