Can I Attach a Disk to a Server in a Different AZ?
No.
Disks and the server you attach the disks to must be in the same AZ. The same is true for shared disks. A shared disk can only be attached to the servers in the same AZ.
If your disk and server are in different AZs, there are two scenarios:
- The disk is empty, or data on the disk is no longer needed.
Delete the disk. Then, purchase a new disk in the AZ where the server belongs. For details, see Deleting an EVS Disk.
- Data on the disk is required.
Create a backup for the disk using the CBR service. Then, use this backup to create a new disk in the AZ where the server is. For details, see Creating a Cloud Disk Backup and Creating a Disk from a Cloud Disk Backup.
