Increasing the Quota

Scenario

SecMaster allows you to increase ECS Quota and change required duration at any time after you make a purchase.

During the purchase, if you are stuck due to insufficient permission, refer to Assigning Permissions.

Limitations and Constraints

  • The ECS quota is the total number of ECSs that are authorized to receive checks. The maximum ECS quota cannot exceed 10,000.
  • When buying SecMaster, ensure that the total ECS quota is greater than or equal to the total number of ECSs under the current account. Otherwise, threats may not be detected in a timely manner if unauthorized hosts are attacked, increasing risks such as data leakage.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > SecMaster.
  3. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Purchased Resources. On the page that is displayed, locate the region where you want to add quotas and click Increase Quota.
  4. On the Buy SecMaster page, configure SecMaster parameters.

    Parameter

    Description

    Current Configuration

    The configuration of the current SecMaster edition.

    Upgrade Method

    Choose Increase Quota.

    ECS Quota

    The ECS quota indicates the maximum number of ECSs that can be protected.

    The total ECS quota must be greater than or equal to the total number of hosts within your account. This value cannot be changed to a smaller one after your purchase is complete.

    NOTE:
    • The maximum ECS quota cannot exceed 10,000.
    • If some of your ECSs are not protected by SecMaster, threats to them cannot be detected in a timely manner, which may result in security risks, such as data leakage. To prevent this, increase the ECS quota upon an increase of the host asset quantity.

    Tag

    TMS's predefined tag function is recommended for adding the same tag to different cloud resources. You can also create tags when purchasing SecMaster.
