Changing the Billing Mode from Pay-per-Use to Yearly/Monthly

Currently, clusters support pay-per-use and yearly/monthly billing modes. A pay-per-use cluster can be converted to a yearly/monthly-billed cluster.

Notes and Constraints

  • You are not advised to perform any operation on a node on the ECS console. If you perform operations on the ECS console, the PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) is bound to the node. As a result, the PVC cannot be used by other nodes.
  • Only nodes in the default node pool DefaultPool can be changed to yearly/monthly billing mode.
  • Nodes whose billing mode is changed to yearly/monthly do not support auto scaling.

Changing to Yearly/Monthly Billing

To change the billing mode of the clusters you have purchased from pay-per-use to yearly/monthly, perform the following steps:

  1. Log in to the CCE console. In the navigation pane, choose Resource Management > Clusters. In the card view of the clusters for which you will change the billing mode, click Change Billing Mode.

  2. On the Change Billing Mode page, choose the master and worker nodes that will be changed to the yearly/monthly billing mode.

  3. Click OK. Wait until the order is processed and the payment is complete.
