During routine database management, if the number of connections to an instance reaches the upper limit or access to the instance becomes abnormal, workloads may be affected. You can restart the DB instance to resolve connection exhaustion or access exceptions and restore normal service operation.

Usage Notes

• Only instances in states Available, Abnormal, or Checking restoration can be restarted.
• After you restart an instance, all nodes in the instance are also restarted.
• Restarting an instance will interrupt services, you are advised to restart an instance during off-peak hours. Ensure that your application can be reconnected.
• If you enable operation protection, two-factor authentication is required for sensitive operations to secure your account and cloud products. For details about how to enable operation protection, see Identity and Access Management User Guide.
