Enabling an AS Group
Updated on 2023-05-10 GMT+08:00
Scenarios
You can enable an AS group to automatically scale capacity in or out.
After an AS group is enabled, its status changes to Enabled. AS monitors the AS policy and triggers a scaling action for AS groups only in Enabled state. After an AS group is enabled, AS triggers a scaling action to automatically add or remove instances if the number of instances in the AS group is different from the expected number of instances.
- Only AS groups in the Abnormal state can be forcibly enabled. You can choose More > Forcibly Enable to enable an abnormal AS group. Forcibly enabling an AS group does not have adverse consequences.
- After you create an AS group and add an AS configuration to an AS group, the AS group is automatically enabled.
Enabling an AS Group
- Log in to the management console.
- Under Compute, click Auto Scaling. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Instance Scaling. Then click the AS Groups tab.
- In the AS group list, locate the row containing the target AS group and click Enable in the Operation column. You can also click the AS group name and then Enable in the upper right corner of the page to enable the AS group.
- In the Enable AS Group dialog box, click Yes.
Forcibly Enabling an AS Group
