Restarting an Instance

For maintenance purposes, if the system is abnormal, you can reboot a DB instance to restore it to the Available state.

  • You can restart a database encryption and access control instance only when it is running.
  • Restarting an instance will interrupt system services for about 5 minutes. During this period, the status of the instance is Restarting.
  • During the restart, the DB encryption and access control instance is unavailable.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the DSC console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region or project.
  3. Locate the target instance and choose in the Operation column.
  4. In the displayed dialog box, click OK.
  5. The restart takes about 5 to 10 minutes, and the instance status changes to Restarting.

    If the instance status changes to Running, the restart is complete and the system can be used properly.

    To forcibly restart an instance, select Force Restart in the Restart Instance dialog box. Forcibly stopping an instance may cause data loss. Ensure that all data files have been saved before performing this operation and no operations are performed in the system.
