How to increase physical memory on an EC2 r3.large instance

I'm running SolrCloud on six EC2 r3.large instances. I'm seeing a lot of OOMs, the cloud console is showing 98% physical memory usage, swap space NaN which I assume means none. It shows JVM usage at about 66%.

Can I upgrade my r3.large's to r3.xlarge's somehow? I thought this type of upgrade was one of the features of the r3 types.

If not that, any advice on lowering physical mem usage until I can rebuild please.

You can resize an Amazon EC2 instance:

  • Stop the instance (Right-click, Instance State, Stop)
  • Change the Instance Type (Right-click, Instance Settings, Change Instance Type)
  • Start the instance again
