Why Cannot the Total ECS Quota Be Less Than the Number of Existing ECSs?

The total ECS quota is the total number of hosts that are authorized to receive detections. When buying SA, ensure that the total ECS quota is greater than or equal to the total number of hosts under the current account. If the total ECS quota is less than the number of hosts, the following impact may occur:

  • Unauthorized hosts cannot detect threats in a timely manner after being attacked, resulting in risks such as data leakage.

Procedure

Log in to the SA console and click Upgrade. Configure the total ECS quota based on the planning or the number of existing hosts.

For details, see Buying the SA Professional Edition.

If the total number of ECSs under an account exceeds the total ECS quota, increase the total ECS quota and change the specifications. For details, see How Do I Change the Specifications of My Professional SA?
