Creating the Same ECS

Scenarios

If you have created an ECS and want to create more with the same configurations, it is a good practice to click Create Same ECS on the ECS console.

Notes

Large-memory ECSs and ECSs created using full-ECS images do not support "Create Same ECS".

Procedure

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner and select your region and project.
3. Under Computing, choose Elastic Cloud Server.
4. Select the target ECS and choose More > CreateSame ECS in the Operation column.

   The system switches to the ECS creation page and automatically copies the parameter settings of the selected ECS.

   

   For security purposes, you must manually configure some of the settings for the new ECSs, including:

   • Manually add data disks if the quantity of data disks needed exceeds 10.
   • Manually add NICs if the quantity of NICs needed exceeds 5.
   • Manually add security groups if the quantity of security groups needed exceeds 5.
   • Select a new data disk image if the disks of the source ECS are created using a data disk image.
   • Add disks as needed if the source ECS is created from a full-ECS image and only has the disks included in this image.
   • Select Encryption if the disks of the source ECS have been encrypted.
   • Configure the functions in Advanced Settings.
   • Configure EIP if required (because it is not required by default).
5. Adjust the parameter settings of the created ECSs as needed, confirm the settings, and click Submit.
