  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.

  4. On the Instance Management page, locate the target DB instance and click Log In in the Operation column.

    Alternatively, click the target DB instance on the Instance Management page. On the displayed Basic Information page, click Log In in the upper right corner of the page.

  5. On the displayed login page, enter the correct username and password and click Log In.
