Managing Clusters That Fail to Be Created

If a cluster fails to be created, you can go to the Clusters > Dedicated Clusters page of the GaussDB(DWS) console to view the cluster status and the cause of failure.

Checking the Cause of a Creation Failure

  1. Log in to the GaussDB(DWS) console. In the navigation pane, choose Clusters > Dedicated Cluster.
  2. In the cluster list, locate the cluster whose Cluster Status is Creation failed.
  3. Click in the Cluster Status column to view the cause of the creation failure.

    For details about the error code and how to handle it, see Error Code Reference. If the fault persists, contact technical support.

Deleting a Cluster That Fails to Be Created

You can delete a cluster that fails to be created if you do not need it. Before deletion, check the cause of creation failure.

  1. Log in to the GaussDB(DWS) console. In the navigation pane, choose Clusters > Dedicated Cluster.
  2. In the cluster list, locate the row containing the failed cluster to be deleted, and choose More > Delete.
  3. In the displayed dialog box, confirm the deletion. You can determine whether to perform the following operations:

    • Create a snapshot for the cluster.

      If the cluster status is normal, you can click Create Snapshot. In the dialog box that is displayed, enter the snapshot name and click OK to create a snapshot for the cluster to be deleted. In the row of a cluster, choose More > Delete.

    • Delete associated resources:
      • Release the EIP bound to the cluster.

        If an EIP is bound to the cluster, you are advised to select EIP to release the EIP. If you do not release the EIP, you can bind it to another cluster or cloud resource and it will be billed based on the EIP pricing rule of VPC.

      • Delete automated snapshots.
      • Delete manual snapshots.

        If you have created a manual snapshot, you can select Manual Snapshot to delete it.

  4. After confirming that the information is correct, enter DELETE or click Auto Enter and click OK to delete the cluster. The cluster status in the cluster list will change to Deleting, and the cluster deletion progress will be displayed.

    If the cluster to be deleted uses an automatically created security group that is not used by other clusters, the security group is automatically deleted when the cluster is deleted.
