After a period of time, the user found that the current specifications no longer met service requirements and updated the specifications.
- The user hibernated the cluster and stopped the node in the cluster at 17:30:00 on March 18, 2023.
- At 08:30:00 on March 19, 2023, the user woke up the cluster and started the node.
- When deploying services in the cluster, the user used a load balancer automatically created at 09:20:00 on March 19, 2023.
- At 09:40:00 on March 19, 2023, the user expanded the existing node flavor to c7.xlarge.2 (4 vCPUs, 8 GiB) due to insufficient resources.
- After the test, the automatically created load balancer was deleted at 10:20:00 on March 20, 2023 because it was no longer used. During the deletion, 5 GB public network traffic was generated.
- After the verification, the user planned to migrate services to CCE and predicted that the cluster scale would be 50 to 200 worker nodes. Therefore, the user changed the cluster scale to 200 worker nodes at 10:30:00 on March 20, 2023.
- The user changed the billing mode of the cluster to yearly/monthly at 11:00:00 on March 20, 2023 for a long-term use of this cluster. The validity period was one month, and the cluster expired at 23:59:59 on April 20, 2023.
- The billing mode of the node in the cluster also changed to yearly/monthly at 11:10:00 on March 20, 2023. The subscription duration was one month, and the node expired at 23:59:59 on April 20, 2023.
