Hibernating and Waking Up a Cluster (Pay-per-Use)

Scenario

If you do not need to use a cluster temporarily, you are advised to hibernate the cluster to save cluster management costs.

After a cluster is hibernated, resources such as workloads cannot be created or managed in the cluster.

A hibernated cluster can be quickly woken up and used normally.

Notes and Constraints

Yearly/Monthly-billed clusters cannot be hibernated.

During cluster wakeup, the master node may fail to be started due to insufficient resources. As a result, the cluster fails to be woken up. Wait for a while and wake up the cluster again.

Hibernating a Cluster

1. Log in to the CCE console. In the navigation pane, choose Resource Management > Clusters.
2. Choose More > Hibernate for the target cluster.
3. In the dialog box displayed, check the precautions and click Yes. Wait until the cluster is hibernated.

   • After a pay-per-use cluster is hibernated, the billing of master node resources will stop.
   • After a cluster is hibernated, resources, such as worker nodes (ECSs), bound EIPs, and bandwidth, are still billed based on their own billing modes. To shut down nodes, select Stop all nodes in the cluster in the dialog box or see Stopping a Node.

4. When the cluster status changes from Hibernating to Hibernation, the cluster is hibernated.

Waking Up a Cluster

1. Log in to the CCE console. In the navigation pane, choose Resource Management > Clusters.
2. Choose More > Wake.
3. In the dialog box displayed, click Yes and wait until the cluster is woken up.
4. When the cluster status changes from Waking to Available, the cluster is woken up.
   

   After the cluster is woken up, billing will be resumed for the resources on the master node.
