Deleting Pay-per-Use Instances

You can manually delete a DDM instance billed on a pay-per-use basis on the Instances page.

If you no longer need a yearly/monthly DDM instance, you can unsubscribe from it. Depending on what coupons were used for the purchase, Huawei Cloud may issue you a refund. For details about unsubscription rules, see Unsubscriptions.

Precautions

  • Instances that an operation is being performed on cannot be deleted. They can be deleted only after the operations are complete.
  • Deleted DDM instances cannot be recovered. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
  • If there are RDS for MySQL instances associated with the DDM instance, the system notifies you of instance information (including instance name, instance status, and database type) when you delete the DDM instance.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the DDM console.
  2. In the instance list, locate the DDM instance that you want to delete and choose More > Delete in the Operation column.

    • To delete data stored on data nodes, select Delete data on data nodes.
    • If there are RDS for MySQL instances associated with the DDM instance, the system notifies you of instance information (including instance name, instance status, and database type) when you delete the DDM instance.
    • A monthly/yearly instance cannot be directly deleted. If you no longer need the instance, switch to Billing Center > Orders Unsubscriptions and Returns/Exchanges > Cloud Service Unsubscriptions and unsubscribe the instance.

  3. Click Yes.
