Creating a ServiceComb Engine
This section describes how to create a ServiceComb engine.
ServiceComb engines are supported only in CN East 2, CN-Hong Kong, ME-Riyadh, TR-Istanbul, AP-Singapore, and AP-Jakarta.
Prerequisites
A ServiceComb engine runs on a VPC. Before creating a ServiceComb engine, ensure that a VPC and subnet are available.
You have created a VPC. For details, see Creating a VPC.
If the engine is created using an account with the minimum permission for creating engines, for example, cse:engine:create in the fine-grained permission dependencies of microservice engines, the default VPC security group cse-engine-default-sg needs to be preset by the primary account and the rules listed in Table 1 need to be added.

Creating a ServiceComb Engine
- Go to the Buy Exclusive ServiceComb Engine page.
- By default, a maximum of five exclusive ServiceComb engines can be created for each project. To create more, submit a service ticket to increase the quota. For details, see Creating a Service Ticket.
- For details about projects, see Projects.
- Set parameters according to the following table. Parameters marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Parameter
Description
*Billing Mode
Billing mode. Currently, Pay-per-use is supported.
*Enterprise Project
Select the project where the ServiceComb engine is located. You can search for and select the required enterprise project from the drop-down list.
Enterprise projects let you manage cloud resources and users by project.
An enterprise project can be used after it is created and enabled. For details, see Enabling the Enterprise Project Function. By default, default is selected.
NOTE:When a ServiceComb engine is in use, do not disable the enterprise project. Otherwise, the engine will not be displayed in the engine list, affecting normal use.
*Instances
Select the microservice instance quota.
*Engine Type
ServiceComb engine type.
If the engine type is cluster, the engine is deployed in cluster mode and supports host-level DR.
*Name
Name of a ServiceComb engine. The name contains 3 to 64 characters, including letters, digits, and hyphens (-), and starts with a letter but cannot end with a hyphen.
NOTICE:ServiceComb engine name cannot be default.
*AZ
Availability zone.
Select one or three AZs for the engine based on the number of AZs in the environment.- Select one AZ to provide host-level DR.
- Select three AZs to provide AZ-level DR.
NOTE:- The AZ of a created ServiceComb engine cannot be changed.
- The AZs in one region can communicate with each other over an intranet.
- Multiple AZs enhance DR capabilities.
*Network
Select a VPC and subnet to provision logically isolated, configurable, and manageable virtual networks for your engine.
- To use a created VPC, search for and select a VPC created under the current account from the drop-down list.
- To use a new VPC, click Create VPC in the drop-down list. For details, see Creating a VPC.
- To use a shared VPC, select a VPC that another account shares with the current account from the drop-down list.
VPC owners can share the subnets in a VPC with one or multiple accounts through Resource Access Manager (RAM). Through VPC sharing, you can easily configure, operate, and manage multiple accounts' resources at low costs. For more information about VPC and subnet sharing, see VPC Sharing.
NOTE:The VPC cannot be changed once the engine is created.
Description
Click and enter the engine description.
Tag
Tags are used to identify cloud resources. When you have multiple cloud resources of the same type, you can use tags to classify them based on usage, owner, or environment.
Click Add Tag. In the Add Tag dialog box, enter a tag key and value. For details about tag naming rules, see Managing Tags. In the Add Tag dialog box, you can click Add Tag to add multiple tags at a time, or click next to a tag to delete the tag.
Authentication Mode
The exclusive ServiceComb engine with security authentication enabled provides the system management function using the role-based access control (RBAC) through the microservice engine console.
- Select Enable security authentication:
- Determine whether to enable Authenticate Programming Interface.
After it is enabled, you need to add the corresponding account and password to the microservice configuration file. Otherwise, the service cannot be registered with the engine.
After it is disabled, you can register the service with the engine without configuring the account and password in the microservice configuration file, which improves the efficiency. You are advised to disable this function when accessing the service in a VPC.
- Enter and confirm the password of user root.
Keep the password secure.
- Determine whether to enable Authenticate Programming Interface.
- Select Disable security authentication:
Disable security authentication. You can enable it after the instance is created.
- Click Buy. The page for confirming the engine information is displayed.
- Click Submit and wait until the engine is created.
- It takes about 31 minutes to create a ServiceComb engine.
- After the ServiceComb engine is created, its status is Available. For details about how to view the ServiceComb engine status, see Viewing ServiceComb Engine Information.
- If the ServiceComb engine fails to be created, view the failure cause on the Operation page and rectify the fault. Then, you can perform the following operations:
- In the ServiceComb Engine Information area, click Retry to create an engine again.
- If the retry fails, delete the ServiceComb engine that fails to be created. For details, see Deleting an Exclusive ServiceComb Engine.
