Posted November 23, 2013

If I create a snapshot, then destroyed the Droplets, and finally created a new droplets with more disk space using the snapshot I will continue to have the previously assigned IP?

You should vote for Elastic IPs on DigitalOcean’s Customer Feedback Forum: <a href=“http://digitalocean.uservoice.com/forums/136585-digital-ocean/suggestions/2993170-movable-ip-from-vm-to-vm-elastic-ip-”>movable IP from VM to VM (“elastic IP”)</a>.

If you do it quickly, yes. DO holds the IP for you for these sorts of operations for a limited amount of time (measured in a few minutes, not hours and not days)
