Loosing VPC ip when resizing.

Question

Hi, I have a droplet that I sometimes resize depending on our load. I use VPC to share files with NFS from droplets. I have a problem when I sometimes resize a droplet I no longer have the VPC IP on my droplet. I also connot ping it from other droplets. No idea how to fix it, reboots dont work. Any ideas?

Hi there @sanchezand,

Do you get a new IP address or is the network interface lost?

Also, did you set up the VPC manually as described in here:

I created the droplet with a VPC.
I also ran
lshw -class network
and it only shows one interface. Running ifconfig only shows my localhost ip and public ip.

  Hi there @sanchezand,
  
  That is quite interesting, I’ve tried to recreate this behavior at my end with a new Ubuntu 20.04 Droplet but I could not replicate it.
  
  What I could suggest is reaching out to the support team to report this behavior:
