Introduction

After a yearly/monthly MRS cluster expires, ECSs cannot run properly. If you want to continue using the MRS cluster, you need to renew it within the specified period. Otherwise, the cluster service will be terminated and data in the system will be permanently deleted.

The renewal operation applies only to MRS clusters charged in yearly/monthly mode. MRS clusters charged in pay-per-use mode do not need to be renewed. You only need to ensure that your account balance is sufficient.

The MRS cluster is successfully renewed before it expires. All resources are retained and the running of the MRS cluster is not affected. For details about the status of an MRS cluster after it expires, see Impact of Expiration.

Remarks

Performing a Manual Renewal

Before a yearly/monthly MRS cluster is automatically deleted, you can renew it on the MRS console at any time to prolong its service life.

Auto Renewal

After auto-renewal is enabled, MRS clusters are automatically renewed before each expiration. This prevents resources from being automatically deleted if you forget to manually renew them.

You can renew a yearly/monthly MRS cluster in different phases of its lifecycle. For details, see Figure 1.

Figure 1 MRS Cluster Lifecycle
  • An MRS cluster is in the Running state from the time when it is purchased to the time when it expires.
  • After the cluster expires, the cluster status changes to expired.
  • If the resource is not renewed upon expiration, the MRS cluster enters the grace period. If the resource is not renewed after the grace period expires, the resource status changes to Frozen.
  • If you do not renew your subscription after the grace period expires, your resource enters a retention period. If you do not renew the subscription within the retention period, your resource is automatically deleted.

Auto-renewal can be enabled before the MRS cluster expires. The system attempts to automatically renew the MRS cluster at 03:00 on the seventh day before the MRS cluster expires. If the fee deduction fails, the system attempts to automatically renew the MRS cluster at 03:00 every day until the MRS cluster expires or the renewal is successful. By default, fees are deducted seven days before your subscription expires. You can change this deduction date as required.
