Recovering Disks from the Recycle Bin

Scenarios

In the recycle bin, disks can be stored for a maximum of 7 days. During this period, you can recover them from the recycle bin if needed.

Constraints

  • Disks in the recycle bin are all billed on a pay-per-use basis, regardless of their billing modes before deletion. Pay-per-use billing also applies after they have been recovered from the recycle bin.

    If you demand yearly/monthly billing for a recovered disk, attach it to an ECS or a BMS, and then change the server's billing mode yearly/monthly.

    To learn how to change pay-per-use billing to yearly/monthly, see From Pay-per-Use to Yearly/Monthly.

  • If your account is frozen or restricted, disks in the recycle bin cannot be recovered.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Under Storage, click Elastic Volume Service.

    The disk list page is displayed.

  3. Click the Recycle Bin tab.
  4. On the Recycle Bin tab page, locate the disk you want to recover and click Recover in the Operation column.

    The Recover Disk page is displayed.

  5. Click Submit.

    • If the recovery succeeds, the disk will be displayed in the disk list, and the disk status is Available.
    • If the recovery fails, the disk remains in the recycle bin, and the disk status changes to Recovery failed.
