Step 5. Specify Instance Type and Name
[This step applies only if you have selected the Restore to a new location, or with different settings option at the Restore Mode step of the wizard]
At the SQL instance step of the wizard, you can change the instance type and specify a new name for the restored Cloud SQL instance. To do that, select the necessary Cloud SQL instance from the list and do the following:
- Click Type and select a new machine type in the SQL Instance Settings window. To learn how to choose the machine type when creating a Cloud SQL instance in Google Cloud, see Google Cloud documentation.
You can also choose a new disk storage type and manually increase storage capacity for the restored Cloud SQL instance. If you want the Cloud SQL service to increase the storage capacity to fit the instance size automatically, select the Enable automatic disk expansion check box. Note, however, that the amount of storage capacity allocated to an instance affects its cost. To learn how to configure storage settings when creating a Cloud SQL instance in Google Cloud, see Google Cloud documentation.
- Click Name and specify a new name for the restored Cloud SQL instance in the Change Name window.

You can specify a single prefix or suffix and add it to the names of multiple restored SQL instances. To do that, select the necessary instances and click Name. In the Change Name widow, select the Add prefix or Add suffix check box, and provide the text that you want to add. Then, click OK. |
