Configuring and Changing the Private IP Address

Scenarios

You can change private IP addresses after migrating data from on-premises databases or other cloud databases to TaurusDB.

Constraints

  • If there is an HTAP instance, the private IP address of the DB instance cannot be changed.
  • Changing the private IP address will interrupt database connections, so change it during off-peak hours.

Configuring the Private IP Address of a DB Instance

When you buy an instance, select a VPC and subnet on the Buy DB Instance page. Then, a private IP address will be automatically assigned to your instance. You can also enter a private IP address.

Procedure

You can change the private IP address of an existing TaurusDB instance.

  1. Log in to the TaurusDB console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region and project.
  3. On the Instances page, click the instance name to go to the Basic Information page.
  4. In the Network Information area, click Modify under Private IP Address.
  5. In the displayed dialog box, select an unused private IP address and click OK.

    An in-use IP address cannot be used as the new private IP address.
