How Do I Create and Log In to an ECS?

For details on how to create and log in to an ECS, see Purchasing an ECS and Logging In to an ECS in Elastic Cloud Server Getting Started.

  • The ECS to be created must be in the same VPC with the DDS DB instance to which it connects.
  • When you create an ECS, select an OS, such as Red Hat 6.6, and bind an EIP to it.
  • Configure the security group to enable the ECS to access the DB instance through the private IP address, that is, the node address in the Private IP Address column on the Basic Information page.
