ApsaraDB RDS:Upgrade the database proxy version

Prerequisites

The database proxy feature is enabled. For more information, see Enable the database proxy feature.

Usage notes

When you upgrade the database proxy version of an RDS instance, the proxy instances that you enabled on the RDS instance are restarted. During the restart, a transient connection that lasts for approximately 30 seconds occurs. The point in time when the proxy instances are restarted varies based on the value of the Upgrade Time parameter. You can select Upgrade Now or Upgrade Within Maintenance Window for the parameter. We recommend that you upgrade the database proxy version of your RDS instance during off-peak hours. If you want to upgrade the database proxy version of your RDS instance during peak hours, make sure that your application is configured to automatically reconnect to your RDS instance.

Procedure

1. Go to the Instances page. In the top navigation bar, select the region in which the RDS instance resides. Then, find the RDS instance and click the ID of the instance.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Database Proxy.

3. In the Basic Information section, click Upgrade to the right of the Proxy Version parameter.

4. In the dialog box that appears, configure the Upgrade Time parameter and click OK.

   Note

   • If the database proxy uses the latest version, the Upgrade button is not displayed.

   • For more information about the database proxy versions, see Release notes for database proxy versions.

   • You can select Upgrade Now or Upgrade Within Maintenance Window for the Upgrade Time parameter. For more information about the maintenance window, see Set the maintenance window.

   • After you set the Upgrade Time parameter to Upgrade Within Maintenance Window and click OK, the RDS instance generates an upgrade plan based on the current maintenance window. If you modify the maintenance window, the upgrade plan that is generated is not affected.
