Adding Shards
Scenarios
This section describes how to add shards to a DB instance to suit your service requirements.
Precautions
- Currently, only standard instances in cloud native deployment mode can be added.
- Adding shards will trigger fast load balancing, which may cause a request timeout for a few seconds. Enable automatic retry for services.
- You can only add shards when the instance status is Available or Checking restoration.
- A DB instance cannot be deleted when one or more shards are being added.
- After shards are successfully added, the system automatically expands the storage capacity (Number of new shards x Shard specification (GB)).
- Currently, shards can be added only for cluster instances.
Method 1
- Log in to the GeminiDB console.
- In the service list, choose Databases > GeminiDB Redis API.
- On the Instances page, click the target instance.
- In the navigation pane, choose Shard Management.

New shards are of the same specifications as existing shards. Once a shard is added, its specification cannot be changed.
- On the displayed page, confirm the shard configuration.
