Disabling Container Protection

Scenarios

Some of your servers have container protection enabled. If these servers no longer require protection but continue to occupy quota, other servers that need protection may be unable to obtain it. You can disable protection on servers with container protection already enabled to free up quota for other servers to use.

Before You Start

  • Disabling protection does not affect services, but will increase security risks. You are advised to keep your servers protected.
  • To unsubscribe from the pay-per-use quota of the container edition, you just need to disable the protection.

Disabling the Container Edition

  1. Log in to the HSS console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region or project.
  3. In the navigation pane, choose Asset Management > Containers & Quota. Click the Container Nodes tab.
  4. (Optional) If you have enabled the enterprise project function, select an enterprise project from the Enterprise Project drop-down list in the upper part of the page to view its data.
  5. In the Operation column of a server, click Disable Protection.

    To disable protection in batches, select multiple target servers and click Disable Protection.

  6. In the dialog box that is displayed, confirm the information and click OK.
  7. After the function is disabled, choose Asset Management > Containers & Quota > Container Nodes. On the Container Nodes tab, if the Protection Status of the server is Unprotected, it indicates protection has been disabled.
