Changing Quotas

Scenario

This topic describes how to change quotas for SecMaster resources you are using, including Increasing the Quota and Decreasing the Quota.

SecMaster allows you to increase Quota and change required duration at any time after you make a purchase.

For yearly/monthly and pay-per-use SecMaster resources you are using, if the number of ECSs you use decrease, you can decrease the quota of SecMaster resources accordingly. You do not need to unsubscribe from SecMaster and purchase it again.

If you are stuck due to insufficient permission, refer to Assigning Permissions.

Limitations and Constraints

• The quota is the total number of servers you authorize SecMaster to check. The maximum ECS quota cannot exceed 10,000.
• When buying SecMaster, ensure that the total ECS quota is greater than or equal to the total number of hosts under the current account. Otherwise, threats may not be detected in a timely manner if unauthorized hosts are attacked, increasing risks such as data leakage.
• Only the standard and professional editions support quota reduction.

2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > SecMaster.
4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Purchased Resources. On the page that is displayed, locate the region where you want to add quotas and click Change Quota.
