Pay-per-Use to Yearly/Monthly
If you want to use a pay-per-use MRS cluster for a long time, you can change the billing mode of the MRS cluster to yearly/monthly to reduce costs. If you change the billing mode from pay-per-use to yearly/monthly, a new order is generated. The yearly/monthly resource takes effect immediately when you make the payment.
Assume that a user purchased a pay-per-use MRS cluster at 15:29:16 on June 18, 2023. Due to service requirements, the user changed the billing mode of the cluster to yearly/monthly at 16:30:30 on June 18, 2023 to generate an order of the pay-per-use to yearly/monthly type. After you pay the order, the change from pay-per-use to yearly/monthly takes effect immediately.
On the management console, choose Fees and Costs > Bills to go to the Billing Center. The following bills are generated on the Bills page:
- Pay-per-use: 2023/06/18 15:00:00 to 2023/06/18 16:00:00. Fees are generated between 15:29:16 and 16:00:00.
- Pay-per-use: 2023/06/18 16:00:00 to 2023/06/18 17:00:00. Fees are generated between 16:00:00 and 16:30:30.
- Yearly/Monthly: 2023/06/18 16:30:30
Prerequisites
- The billing mode of MRS clusters is Pay-per-use.
- The MRS cluster is in the Running state.
Procedure
- Log in to the MRS management console.
- In the left navigation pane, choose Clusters > Active Clusters.
- In the Operation column corresponding to the cluster for which you want to change the billing mode, click Change to Yearly/Monthly.
- If you are sure you want to change the billing mode, click Yes.
- On the Change Subscription page that is displayed, choose how often you would like to renew and click Pay.
After the order is submitted, the cluster status changes from Running to Changing to Yearly/Monthly.
After the order is paid successfully, the cluster billing mode starts changing to Yearly/Monthly. After the billing mode is successfully changed, the cluster status is Running.
After the billing mode is changed to yearly/monthly, task nodes in a cluster are still billed in pay-per-use mode. During the change, the configured AS rules do not trigger scaling actions. Change the billing mode at an appropriate time to avoid any adverse impact on your services.
