How Do I Verify the Connection Between My Server and the HSS Server?

In the CN East 2 and CN Southwest-Guiyang1 regions, if you choose to install the agent by using command lines, you need to select a server and set up its connection to HSS.

To set up the connection, create a VPC endpoint (which occupies a VPC subnet IP address) in the VPC of your server to enable communication between your server and the HSS server, so that your server can download and install the agent. For details about VPCEP, see What Is VPC Endpoint?

This section introduces how to verify a network connection and how to set up a connection.

Verifying the Network Connection

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select the region and project.
  3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Networking > VPC Endpoint to switch to the VPC Endpoint page.
  4. In the VPC endpoint list, check whether there is a VPC endpoint with the service name com.myhuaweicloud.xxx.hss-agent.

    xxx indicates the region ID. For example, the region ID of CN East 2 is cn-east-4.
