Table 1 URI parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

project_id

Yes

String

Project ID of a tenant in a region.

To obtain this value, see Obtaining a Project ID.

Table 2 Request header parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

X-Auth-Token

Yes

String

User token.

Table 3 Request body parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

priorities

Yes

Array of integers

Failover priority of a read replica.

Failover priority ranges from 1 for the first priority to 16 for the last priority. This priority determines the order in which read replicas are promoted when recovering from a primary node failure. Read replicas with the same priority have a same probability of being promoted to the new primary node. You can configure a failover priority for up to 9 read replicas, and the default priority for the remaining read replicas is -1, indicating these read replicas cannot be promoted to primary. You can change the failover priority of a read replica.

is_auto_pay

No

String

Whether the order will be automatically paid after yearly/monthly instances are created. This parameter does not affect the payment method of automatic renewal.

  • true: indicates the order will be automatically paid from your account. The default value is true.
  • false: indicates the order will be manually paid.

availability_zones

No

Array of strings

AZ. You can specify an AZ to create a read replica. If this parameter is not specified, an AZ is automatically assigned by default.

The function is in the open beta test (OBT) phase. To use it, submit a service ticket.

To obtain the value, see the key availability_zone in az_status of Querying Database Specifications.

Note: Creating a read replica in a specified AZ may fail due to insufficient resources.

Response Parameters

Status code: 201

Table 4 Response body parameters

Parameter

Type
