Purchasing an HSS Quota

Updated on 2025-01-07 GMT+08:00

You can purchase an HSS quota on the console.

Precautions

  • The quota can be used only in the region where you bought it.
  • A quota can be bound to a server to protect it, on condition that the agent on the server is online.
  • Currently, HSS can only protect Docker and Containerd containers. Check your container type before purchasing the container edition.
  • The enterprise edition is no longer sold. You are advised to purchase the premium edition to protect your servers.
  • HSS should be deployed on all your servers so that if a virus infects one of them, it will not be able to spread to others and damage your entire network.
  • After purchasing quota, go to the Servers & Quota page to enable HSS.
    NOTICE:
    • You are advised to deploy HSS on all your servers so that if a virus infects one of them, it will not be able to spread to others and damage your entire network.
    • The billing for a pay-per-use billing quota will stop if the protected ECS is shut down.

    Enterprise

    Enterprise Project

    This option is only available when you are logged in using an enterprise account, or when you have enabled enterprise projects. To enable this function, contact your customer manager.

    An enterprise project provides a cloud resource management mode, in which cloud resources and members are centrally managed by project.

    Select an enterprise project from the drop-down list.

    NOTE:
    • Resources and incurred expenses are managed under the enterprise project you selected.
    • Value default indicates the default enterprise project. Resources that are not allocated to any enterprise projects under your account are displayed in the default enterprise project.
    • The default option is available in the Enterprise Project drop-down list only after you purchased HSS under your Huawei account.

    default

    Tag

    Tags are used to identify cloud resources. When you have many cloud resources of the same type, you can use tags to classify cloud resources by dimension (for example, by usage, owner, or environment).

    To use this function, your account must have the TMS administrator permission. Without this permission, you cannot add tags to protection quotas, and the error message "permission error" will be displayed.

    You do not need to set this parameter in pay-per-use mode.

    data

    Quota Management

    After automatic quota binding is enabled, HSS automatically binds available quotas to new servers or container nodes after the agent is installed for the first time. Only the yearly/monthly quotas that you have purchased can be automatically bound. No new order or fee is generated.

    • Servers: Available yearly/monthly quotas are automatically bound in the following sequence: Premium Edition > Enterprise Edition > Professional Edition > Basic Edition.
    • Container nodes: Available yearly/monthly quotas are automatically bound in the following sequence: Container Edition > Premium Edition > Enterprise Edition > Professional Edition > Basic Edition.

    If you use enterprise projects, this configuration only enables automatic quota binding for the selected enterprise project.

    Selected

    Required Duration

    • Select a duration based on your requirements. In Pay-per-use mode, you do not need to select a duration.
    • You are advised to select Auto-renew to ensure your servers are always protected.
    • If you select Auto-renew, the system will automatically renew your subscription as long as your account balance is sufficient. The renewal period is the same as the required duration.
    • If you do not select Auto-renew, manually renew the service before it expires.
