Informix does not support the cpd-cli manage update-cr command to scale the service.

You can run the following commands to adjust the amount of CPU and memory that are allocated to an Informix service instance:

1. From the Informix instance details page in the Cloud Pak for Data web client.
   1. Get the deployment ID of the instance.
   2. Review the current configuration to determine the number of nodes, the number of cores, and the amount of memory allocated to the instance.
2. Set the INSTANCE_ID environment variable:

   export INSTANCE_ID=<instance-id>

3. To scale the number of Informix servers in the service instance, run:

   oc patch Informixes informix-${INSTANCE_ID} \
   --namespace ${PROJECT_CPD_INSTANCE}
   --patch '{"spec":{"replicas":2}}' \
   --type=merge

4. To increase the CPU or memory that the service instance can use, run the appropriate command:

   Increase memory limits

   The following example sets the memory limits to 4 GiB.

   oc patch Informixes informix-${INSTANCE_ID}-server \
   --namespace ${PROJECT_CPD_INSTANCE} \
   --patch '{"spec":{"resources":{"limits":{"memory":"4Gi"}}}}' \
   --type=merge

   Increase memory

   The following example sets the memory requests to 2 GiB.

   oc patch Informixes informix-${INSTANCE_ID}-server \
   --namespace ${PROJECT_CPD_INSTANCE} \
   --patch '{"spec":{"resources":{"requests":{"memory":"2Gi"}}}}' \
   --type=merge

   Increase CPU limits

   The following example sets the CPU limits to 4 CPU.

   oc patch Informixes informix-${INSTANCE_ID}-server \
   --namespace ${PROJECT_CPD_INSTANCE} \
   --patch '{"spec":{"resources":{"limits":{"cpu":"4"}}}}' \
   --type=merge

   Increase CPU

   The following example sets the CPU requests to 2 CPU.

   oc patch Informixes informix-${INSTANCE_ID}-server \
   --namespace ${PROJECT_CPD_INSTANCE} \
   --patch '{"spec":{"resources":{"requests":{"cpu":"2"}}}}' \
   --type=merge

5. Delete the StatefulSet for the changes to take effect:

   oc delete sts informix-${INSTANCE_ID}-server
