Renewal Rules

You can renew your yearly/monthly subscribed resources to prolong their validity periods. If a resource is renewed when it is in a grace period or retention period, the renewal for this resource starts from when the resource expired instead of the time when the renewal is operated. .

Rules

Renewal restrictions

  1. Reserved instances are not renewable.
  2. Pay-per-use resources and spot instances are not renewable.
  3. If an order is not completed, the resources cannot be renewed.
  4. If an order for changing the specifications of a yearly/monthly resource has been submitted but has not been completed, such a resource is not renewable.
  5. Yearly/monthly resources that have been changed or are being changed to pay-per-use billing mode are not renewable.
  6. If a yearly/monthly resource has supplemented resources, the yearly/monthly resource is not renewable until the supplemented resources have been provisioned successfully, ensuring that the yearly/monthly resource and the supplemented resources expire at the same time.

    Example: You have purchased a promotional package of a monthly ECS (specifications: s6.small.1 ECS + VPC network). You must renew the whole package to use an applicable discount. Only when no discount can be applied for renewing the package, you can renew the monthly ECS and VPC separately.

  4. For any other package, you can renew it as a whole or specific resources in the package. However, after you renew specific resources in a package, the package cannot be renewed as a whole any longer and discounts for a whole package renewal cannot be used.
