Last updated: 2024-01-04 16:11:08

    1. API Description

    Domain name for API request: cvm.tencentcloudapi.com.

    This API is used to restart instances.

    • You can only perform this operation on instances whose status is RUNNING.
    • If the API is called successfully, the instance status will become REBOOTING. After the instance is restarted, its status will become RUNNING again.
    • Forced restart is supported. A forced restart is similar to switching off the power of a physical computer and starting it again. It may cause data loss or file system corruption. Be sure to only force start a CVM when it cannot be restarted normally.
    • Batch operations are supported. The maximum number of instances in each request is 100.

    A maximum of 10 requests can be initiated per second for this API.

    We recommend you to use API Explorer
    Try it
    API Explorer provides a range of capabilities, including online call, signature authentication, SDK code generation, and API quick search. It enables you to view the request, response, and auto-generated examples.
