You can migrate a Data Transmission Service (DTS) instance between a dedicated cluster and a public cluster.
Prerequisites
A DTS dedicated cluster and the DTS instance to be migrated are created.
NoteIf the DTS instance is a data synchronization or migration instance, the source and destination databases must reside in the same region.
The DTS instance to be migrated is in the Running state.
Usage notes
Do not perform DDL operations on the source database during the migration of a DTS instance. Otherwise, the DTS instance fails to be migrated or the data is inconsistent after the migration.
The DTS instance to be migrated, including the source and destination databases of the instance, must be in the region in which the DTS dedicated cluster resides.
After you migrate a DTS instance from a public cluster to a dedicated cluster, you are no longer charged for the DTS instance. The billing method of a subscription DTS instance is changed to pay-as-you-go and no fee is charged for the DTS instance after the DTS instance is migrated from a public cluster to a dedicated cluster. The DTS instance is automatically refunded.
If you migrate a DTS instance from a dedicated cluster to a public cluster, you are charged for the DTS instance. For more information, see Billing overview.
Before you migrate a DTS instance from a public cluster to a dedicated cluster, you must estimate the number of DTS units (DUs) required for the dedicated cluster based on the instance class of the DTS instance in the public cluster. If the available DUs of the dedicated cluster are insufficient, the migration fails. For information about the mappings between DTS instance classes in dedicated and public clusters, see the table in step 5.
Procedure
Go to the Dedicated Cluster page.
In the top navigation bar, select the region in which you want to create a DTS dedicated cluster from the drop-down list to the right of Workbench.
On the Cluster Task page, use one of the following methods to go to the Task Migration panel.
Find the dedicated cluster from or to which you want to migrate the DTS instance and choose
in the Actions column.Find the dedicated cluster from or to which you want to migrate the DTS instance and click its ID or click Details in the Actions column. In the upper part of the Cluster Management page, click Task Migration.
In the Task Migration panel, configure the parameters. The following table describes the parameters.

Description
Supported Scenarios
N/A
Select Migrate a DTS instance from a dedicated cluster to a shared cluster or Migrate a DTS instance from a shared cluster to a dedicated cluster based on your business requirements.
ImportantIf the source or destination database of the DTS instance is an on-premises database or a database deployed on a third-party cloud platform, you must add the CIDR blocks of DTS servers to the IP address whitelist of the database. For more information, see Add the CIDR blocks of DTS servers.
Select the DTS instance to be migrated
Type
The type of the DTS instance to be migrated. Valid values:
Data Migration
Change Tracking
Data Synchronization
Select Instance
The DTS instance to be migrated.
Click OK.
The following table describes the mappings between DTS instance classes in dedicated and public clusters.
DTS instance classes in dedicated clusters
DTS instance classes in public clusters
1DU

2DU
small
3DU
medium
4DU
large
5DU

6DU
2xlarge
NoteIf the number of DUs allocated to a DTS data migration instance exceeds 6, the DTS instance is converted to the 2xlarge type in a public cluster by default.
If the number of DUs allocated to a DTS data synchronization instance exceeds 4, the DTS instance is converted to the large type in a public cluster by default.
