Starting an Instance

Scenarios

You can stop your instance temporarily to save money. After stopping your instance, you can restart it to begin using it again.

Constraints

  • If you start a primary instance, read replicas (if there are any) will also be started.

  • Only instances in Stopped state can be started. After this function is enabled, billing for instance usage duration will start.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.

  2. Click image1 in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.

  3. Click Service List. Under Database, click Relational Database Service. The RDS console is displayed.

  4. On the Instances page, locate the primary instance that you want to start and choose More > Start in the Operation column.

  5. In the displayed dialog box, click Yes.

  6. Refresh the instance list and view the status of the instance. If the status is Available, the instance is started successfully.
