title: Is there way to change to instance type in Azure Cloud Services
body: <p>Is there any way to change the <strong>VM Size</strong> of an Azure Cloud Service without having to rebuild the package?</p>
  
  <p>The <code>vmsize</code> parameter is defined in the <code>.csdef</code> file rather than the <code>.cscfg</code> file that is uploaded into Azure and doesn't appear in the other included XML files of the package.</p>
  
  <p>Please note that we're not looking to change the <strong>instance count</strong> (scale out) but the size type (i.e. from Extra Small (A0) to Medium (A2)).</p>
