    WUYING Terminal:Configure a scheduled stop policy for a cloud computer

    Last Updated:Oct 17, 2023

    After a cloud computer is disconnected, the cloud computer remains in the Running state. If the cloud computer is billed on a pay-as-you-go basis, you are still charged, which causes a waste of resources. To prevent resource waste, you can configure a scheduled stop policy to stop a cloud computer that is disconnected. This topic describes how to configure a scheduled stop policy for a cloud computer that is disconnected.

    Prerequisites

    • The version of an Alibaba Cloud Workspace client is updated to V6.2.0 or later.

    • You are logged on to the client.

    • The Scheduled Task upon Disconnection feature is enabled by your administrator, and the Principle of Effective Task parameter is set to Policy Configured by User in the WUYING Workspace console.

      Note

      If you cannot select the options for the Scheduled Task Policy parameter, contact your IT administrator to grant you the permissions to configure the policy.

    Procedure

    Warning

    If you stop a cloud computer, running processes are terminated and unsaved files and data are lost. To prevent issues, make sure that you save data and files in the cloud computer at the earliest opportunity after the system prompts that the cloud computer is about to stop.

    1. On the cloud computer card, click Manage. On the page that appears, click the Policies tab.

    2. In the My Policies section, perform the following operations based on your business requirements:

      • If you do not want to configure a scheduled stop policy, select After this cloud computer is disconnected: Keep running.

      • If you want to configure a scheduled stop policy, select After this desktop is disconnected for..., perform the action of ... Then, select a duration from the drop-down list on the left and Shut Down from the drop-down list on the right.

    Note

    • If you change the execution time of the scheduled stop policy when the cloud computer is in the Running state, the execution time is reset.

    • If the current cloud computer is assigned to multiple end users, all end users can configure scheduled stop policies for a cloud computer. However, only the latest configured policy takes effect.

    • If another end user modifies the configured schedule stop policy of your cloud computer, the system sends a notification to Message Center on your cloud computer. You can click the 消息、通知..png icon to view the modification details.
