Starting an Instance

On the DCS console, you can start one or multiple DCS instances at a time.

When a cluster instance is started, status and data are synchronized between the nodes of the instance. If a large amount of data is continuously written into the instance before the synchronization is complete, the synchronization will be prolonged and the instance remains in the Starting state. After the synchronization is complete, the instance enters the Running state.

This function is supported only by old DCS Redis instances in the Stopped state. New instances cannot be started or stopped.

Procedure

Log in to the DCS console.
Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select the region where your instance is located.
In the navigation pane, choose Cache Manager.
Select the instance which you want to start and click Start above the DCS instance list.
In the displayed dialog box, click Yes.
- It takes 1 to 30 minutes to start DCS instances.
- After DCS instances are started, their statuses change from Stopped to Running.
To start a single instance, click Start in the Operation column in the row containing the desired instance.
