Is it possible to change the flavor of the instance for the aarch64 worker running at OSUOSL?

I've gotten the remote instance running openQA jobs but with only a single worker and even with video capture disabled I'm still maxing out the resources on the instance.

It's on the second run through of a basic install where the last one timed out waiting for the Welcome Tour after completing the install in about 6.5 hours.

Build20240122-Rocky-9.3-aarch64.0 of rocky-9.3-dvd-iso.aarch64 install_default@aarch64

It definitely cannot handle two workers running tasks in parallel or even one worker running in parallel with a createhdds run.

I'm not sure if it's better to go with a completely new installation or if snapshot/restore would be a better plan but we can discuss that here.

It would be interesting to resize the current machine without any changes inside the image. That might provide the best feedback on effect of resource addition. I'll let you know if/when the currently running test (linked above) is complete or dies.

increased from m1.large to m1.xlarge. tries to increase to m1.2xlarge but received message indicating no hosts were available to schedule the VM with those resources (16 cores,32G ram, 320G disk), but it's not clear which of those three are unavailable.

I will reach out to our contacts at OSU OSL to see if there's something can be done, like migrating servers around to expose a spot to schedule this host.
