Auto-Renewal
Auto-renewal can prevent DWS cluster being automatically deleted if you forget to manually renew them. The auto-renewal rules are as follows:
- The auto-renewal period of a DWS cluster varies depending on how you enable auto-renewal.
- You can enable auto-renewal anytime before a DWS cluster expires. By default, the system will make the first attempt to charge your account for the renewal at 03:00 seven days before the expiration date. If this attempt fails, it will make another attempt at 03:00 every day until the subscription is renewed or expires.
- After auto-renewal is enabled, you can still manually renew the cluster if you want to. After a manual renewal is completed, auto-renewal is still valid, and the renewal charge will be deducted from your account seven days before the new expiration date.
- By default, the renewal charge is deducted from your account seven days before the new expiry date. You can change this auto-renewal payment date as required.
