Tair provides a recycle bin to store instances that are expired, overdue, and released. You can unlock, recreate, or permanently delete Tair instances in the recycle bin.

Precautions

  • When a Tair instance expires or has overdue payments, the instance is handled based on the amount of time elapsed since the expiration date and the billing method of the instance. For more information, see Expiration and overdue payments.
  • Pay-as-you-go instances that are manually released are also moved to the recycle bin. These instances are deleted after they are retained in the recycle bin for seven days.
Warning When the grace period of the instance is over, the system permanently deletes the instance.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Recycle.
