Configuring the Maintenance Window

Precautions

• Before maintenance is performed, DDS will send SMS and email notifications to the contact person you specified in the Huawei account.
• During the maintenance window, the DB instance may be intermittently disconnected once or twice. Ensure that your applications can reconnect to the database if the connection is interrupted.
• During DB instance maintenance, operations for service changes (such as upgrade and restart) are unavailable except account management, database management, and security group adding. When a DB instance is in maintenance, data access and query operations on the database are not affected.
• Changing the maintenance window does not affect the execution of tasks that have been scheduled.
• You can configure a maintenance window only for restarting a DB instance, changing an instance class, or upgrading the minor version of a DB instance.
• You can cancel a scheduled task to be executed on the Task Center page.
• The maintenance window cannot overlap the time window configured for backups. Otherwise, scheduled tasks may fail.
• Tasks delivered near the end of the maintenance window may fail to be scanned. In this case, the execution is canceled.
