Migrating an ECS

Scenarios

ECSs can be migrated:

Between Dedicated Hosts (DeHs)
From a DeH to a public resource pool
From a public resource pool to a DeH

This section describes how to migrate ECSs from a public resource pool to a DeH.

Before migrating an ECS, ensure that there are available DeH resources.
For details about migrating ECSs from a DeH to another DeH or to a public resource pool, see "Migrating ECSs" in the Dedicated Host User Guide.

Constraints

Only stopped ECSs can be migrated.
To ensure that the migration is successful, there must be an available DeH.
CBR and CSBS backups are not affected by migrations.
ECS IDs remain unchanged after a migration.

Procedure

Log in to the management console.
Click in the upper left corner and select your region and project.
Under Computing, click Elastic Cloud Server.
Locate the row that contains the target ECS and choose More > Migrate ECS in the Operation column.
In the displayed dialog box, select the target DeH.

If no DeHs are available, create a DeH first. For details, see Allocating DeHs in the Dedicated Host User Guide.
Click OK.
