If you take a snapshot of your existing server and provision a new one, you will need to change the ID of the monitoring agent for the new server to appear on the server list.

Please follow the procedure:

  1. Edit the file:
    ​

    /etc/cloudstats/server.key
    ​
    Enter any Random ID into this file, but with the same number of characters.
    ​

  2. Restart the monitoring agent:
    ​

    service cloudstats-agent restart

After this the newly provisioned server should appear on your server list.
