Configuring Instance Protection¶
Scenarios¶
To control whether an instance can be removed automatically from an AS group, use instance protection. Once configured, when AS automatically scales in the AS group, the instance that is protected will not be removed.
Prerequisites¶
Instance protection does not protect instances from the following:
Health check replacement if the instance fails health checks
Manual removal
Note
Instance protection does not protect unhealthy instances because such instances cannot provide services.
By default, instance protection does not take effect on the ECSs that are newly created in or added to an AS group.
If an instance is removed from an AS group, its instance protection setting is lost.
