Yearly/Monthly to Pay-per-Use

After creating a yearly/monthly cluster or node, you can change it to a pay-per-use cluster or node for more flexibility.

The pay-per-use billing takes effect only after the yearly/monthly subscription expires.

Prerequisites

The billing mode can only be changed from yearly/monthly to pay-per-use for a CCE cluster or node whose order status is provisioned. You can view the order status on the Renewals page in Billing Center.

Procedure

Go to the Renewals page.
Customize the search criteria.
- Under the Pay-per-Use After Expiration tab, you can view the resources that already have changed to pay-per-use upon expiration configured.
- On the Manual Renewals, Auto Renewals, and Renewals Canceled tabs, you can also change the billing mode of the resources to pay-per-use billing upon expiration.
Change a yearly/monthly resource to pay-per-use upon expiration.
- Changing the billing mode of a single resource: Select the resource whose billing mode you want to change and choose More > Change to Pay-per-Use After Expiration in the Operation column.
