POST /servers/{id}/actions/change_type
Changes the type (Cores, RAM and disk sizes) of a Server.
Server must be powered off for this command to succeed.
This copies the content of its disk, and starts it again.
You can only migrate to Server types with the same storage_type and equal or bigger disks. Shrinking disks is not possible as it might destroy data.
If the disk gets upgraded, the Server type can not be downgraded any more. If you plan to downgrade the Server type, set upgrade_disk to false.
