Operating systems share processor resources between all running processes based upon their priority level. If a process (application) has a higher priority level, it gets more processor resources for better performance compared to a process having lower priority. This guide will show you how to change the CPU priority of your server.
# Changing the CPU Priority
Following these steps will upgrade your server, resulting in a higher renewal cost and an invoice to pay upon completion of these steps.
- Navigate to your Control Panel.
- Select My Plan from the menu located at the bottom left of the screen.
- In the Addons & Options section, click on Edit under the CPU addon.
- Click on Customise under Change Plan.
- Select the CPU Priority you wish to upgrade to.
- Click on Next Step once a CPU Priority is selected.
- Confirm the changes and click on Change Plan.
Your server should now be upgraded to your selected CPU priority. Make sure that any outstanding invoices are paid here.
