This document introduces the preparations needed before getting started with TDMQ for RabbitMQ, including creating an account, obtaining permissions, and preparing Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) resources.
Operation Steps
1. Create a Tencent Cloud account and complete identity verification.
If you already have a Tencent Cloud account and have completed identity verification, skip this step.
2. Top up your account.
Before you create a RabbitMQ cluster, make sure that your account has sufficient funds to cover the cost of purchasing the cluster. For specific steps on account top-up, see Online Top-up. If your account already has sufficient funds, skip this step.
3. Configure operation permissions on RabbitMQ for the account.
If you are using a Tencent Cloud sub-account, grant operation permissions on RabbitMQ clusters for the sub-account according to Account Permission Overview. If you are using a Tencent Cloud root account, which has operation permissions on all resources by default, skip this step.
4. Create a VPC and subnet.
Before RabbitMQ cluster creation, make sure that an available VPC and subnet exist. For specific steps to create a VPC and a subnet, see Creating a VPC and a Subnet. The created VPC and RabbitMQ cluster must be located in the same region, as cloud products in different regions cannot communicate with each other via the private network. If you already have a suitable VPC and subnet, skip this step.
5. Prepare Linux servers and configure the environment.
5.1 Preparation of Linux servers: This document takes Tencent Cloud Virtual Machine (CVM) as an example. For specific steps to create a CVM instance, see Purchasing a CVM Instance. Make sure that the CVM instance and the RabbitMQ cluster are in the same VPC network. If you already have an available CVM instance, skip this step.
