Migrating an ECS

Scenarios

ECSs can be migrated:

• Between Dedicated Hosts (DeHs)
• From a DeH to a public resource pool
• From a public resource pool to a DeH

This section describes how to migrate ECSs from a public resource pool to a DeH.

• Before migrating an ECS, ensure that there are available DeH resources.

• For details about migrating ECSs from a DeH to another DeH or to a public resource pool, see "Migrating ECSs" in the Dedicated Host User Guide.

Constraints

• Only stopped ECSs can be migrated.
• To ensure that the migration is successful, there must be an available DeH.
• CBR and CSBS backups are not affected by migrations.
• ECS IDs remain unchanged after a migration.

Procedure

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Under Computing, click Elastic Cloud Server.
3. Locate the row that contains the target ECS and choose More > Migrate ECS in the Operation column.
4. In the displayed dialog box, select the target DeH.
   

   If no DeHs are available, create a DeH first. For details, see Purchasing DeHs on a Pay-per-Use Basis in the Dedicated Host User Guide.

5. Click OK.
