PolarDB:Change the billing method of a cluster from pay-as-you-go to subscription

更新時間:Sep 02, 2024

This topic describes how to change the billing method of a cluster from pay-as-you-go to subscription based on your business requirements.

Prerequisites

  • The cluster is in the Running state.

  • The cluster does not have pending orders to change the billing method from pay-as-you-go to subscription. If such pending orders exist, you must pay for or cancel these orders on the Orders page.

  • If a cluster uses specifications that are no longer available, you cannot switch its billing method to subscription. To switch the billing method to subscription for such a cluster, first upgrade the specifications of the cluster. For more information, see Change specifications.

Usage notes

  • When you change the billing method of a cluster from pay-as-you-go to subscription, the billing method for storage resources does not change.

Procedure

    Log on to the PolarDB console.

  1. In the upper-left corner, select the region in which the cluster is deployed.

  2. Find the cluster on the Clusters page and choose More > Switch to Subscription in the Actions column.

    E

  3. On the Switch to Subscription page, check the cluster information, configure the Purchase Plan parameter, read and accept the terms of service, and then click Buy Now to complete the payment.

    Note
    • The new billing method takes effect after you complete the payment.

    • If the order remains unpaid or the payment fails, the order is listed as an unpaid order on the Orders page. You cannot purchase a new cluster or switch the billing method until you complete the payment or cancel the order.
