Buying an Instance

Huawei Cloud accounts, authorized member accounts, and delegated accounts can buy OneAccess instances.

After you buy a OneAccess instance, you can use it.

  1. Go to the page for buying OneAccess.
  2. Configure the parameters on the page for buying OneAccess.

    1. Select a region from the Region drop-down list.
    2. Select an instance specification. Currently, the basic, professional, and enterprise editions are supported.
    3. Set user numbers for Users.
      • If you choose the basic edition, the number of users can be 100 or 500.
      • If you choose the professional edition, you can drag the scroll bar to set the number of users. The number of users can be set to 200 or a value ranging from 1000 to 10,000. The number of users between 1000 and 10,000 increases by 1000. To purchase a professional edition instance with more than 10,000 users, submit a service ticket.
      • If you choose the enterprise edition, the number of users is fixed at 40,000 and cannot be changed.
    4. Set Required Duration. Auto-renew is selected by default.
    5. Set Number of Instances to an integer ranging from 1 to 100.

      If you choose the enterprise edition, the number of instances is 1 by default and cannot be changed.

  3. Enter and confirm the new administrator password. The default account is the account name of the tenant. The password must contain 8 to 18 characters, including at least three types of the following characters: digits, uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and special characters -+~!@#$%^&*,:;<=>_?`./.

    Perform this step when the instance specification is an enterprise edition.

  4. Click Next: Confirm.
  5. Select I have read and accepted <OneAccess Service Statement> and click Pay.

    • If you select the basic or professional edition, the OneAccess instance will start to be created after you purchase it. After the instance is created, a domain name will be automatically generated.
    • If you choose the enterprise edition, submit a service ticket to enable the instance.
