Operation Scenarios

Based on your business needs, you can return pay-as-you-go instances in the console in a self-service manner.

• After a pay-as-you-go instance is returned, it will be moved to the TencentDB recycle bin and retained there for 24 hours. During the retention period, the instance cannot be accessed but can be restored.

After an instance is returned, once its status changes to "isolated", no fees related to it will be incurred.

• After the instance is terminated, its data cannot be recovered, and its backup files will also be terminated, so the data cannot be restored in the cloud. Please store your backup files safely elsewhere in advance.
• When the instance is terminated, its IP resources will be released simultaneously. If the instance has read-only instances or disaster recovery instances:
  • Read-only instances will be terminated at the same time.
  • Disaster recovery instances will disconnect their sync connections and be promoted to master instances automatically.

Directions

1. Log in to the TencentDB for MySQL Console, select the target instance in the instance list, and select More > Terminate/Return or Terminate/Return & Refund in the "Operation" column.
   
2. In the pop-up dialog box, select "I have read and agreed to Termination Rules" and click Terminate Now.
